subcuticular (8) vs. subcuticular + TSA (7); P  less then  0.001. Incisional SSIs were evaluated separately according to the NSQIP definition. When comparing rates, the subcuticular + TSA group experienced lower incisional SSIs compared to the other two techniques (4.9% vs. 10.1%, 10.8%). However, this difference was not statistically significant…[Read more]

SIGNIFICANCE Our study provides new insights into the protein repertoire of primary equine granulocytes and identifies protein abundance changes associated to equine recurrent uveitis (ERU), an organ specific, spontaneously occurring autoimmune disease. We show that granulocyte proteins with increased abundance in ERU strongly associate to RAF/MAP…[Read more]

The high expression of EZH2 (especially) and ECI2 in PC seems to be a potential therapeutic target.Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare, fatal, and incurable disorder. Although advances in the understanding of the PAH pathobiology have been seen in recent years, molecular processes underlying heart remodelling over the course of PAH are…[Read more]

34% (13/205). Majority (69.3%) of the ADHD-positive children were living in a joint family and belonged to lower/lower middle class. Family history of ADHD was absent in all the ADHD-positive children. Conclusion The current study conducted in a rural area among 6- to 12-year-old children of Government schools has shown a reasonably high ADHD…[Read more]

One patient was initially treated with sclerotherapy before undergoing intraoral excision of the sublingual gland. Two patients treated with transcervical excision of the cyst experienced recurrence compared to no recurrence with intraoral excision of the sublingual gland. CONCLUSION Intraoral removal of the sublingual gland is the most effective…[Read more]

Implantation of a permanent pacemaker is a negative prognostic marker in patients with Fontan palliation; however, data delineating outcomes in adult patients with pacemaker requirements are lacking. We hypothesize that high ventricular pacing burden is associated with adverse outcomes in adult Fontan patients. We performed a retrospective review…[Read more]

Epithelial sheets define organ architecture during development. Here, we employed an iterative multiscale computational modeling and quantitative experimental approach to decouple direct and indirect effects of actomyosin-generated forces, nuclear positioning, extracellular matrix, and cell-cell adhesion in shaping Drosophila wing imaginal discs.…[Read more]
