CDH11 inhibits proliferation and invasion in head and neck cancer
[image: cover.gif?v=1&s=fa071a998e1fff64ddf228a0] Background In this study, we use a bioinformatics-based strategy to nominate a tumor suppressor gene cadherin-11 (CDH11) and investigate its role in growth and invasion in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Methods Using the Oncomine™ database to compare HNSCC and normal specimens, CDH11 was nominated as having a role in HNSCC. CDH11 expression in HNSCC was evaluated by immunohistochemistry on a tissue microarray (TMA) and immunoblotting and immunofluorescence of cell lines.

Reality Training: Severe head wound behind home plate
*Incident Date:* June 23, 2016 *Department:* Athletic trainers and Paramedics Plus, the standby medical service for the Oakland A's *What happened:* Home plate umpire Paul Emmel was hit in the head when Angels’ pinch-hitter Jefry Marte lost control of his bat. Emmel immediately fell to the ground. When he removed his hat, blood cascaded into the sand. The sound of the bat hitting Emmel's head was startling to players, and the blood streaming out of a laceration was surely just as frightening for television viewers. Read more about the incident and watch the video of the injury. ... περισσότερα »

Pooled odds ratios (ORs) or standardised mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Patient characteristics, surgical-related factors and comorbidities, as potential risk factors, were investigated. The main factors associated with infection after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) were male gender (OR, 1·48; 95% CI, 1.19–1.85), age (SMD, −0·10; 95% CI, −0.1... περισσότερα »

A total of 62 participants with diabetic foot ulcers (70 wounds) were divided into two groups: non-macerated (*n* = 52) and macerated wounds (*n* = 18). Each group was evaluated weekly using the Bates–Jensen Wound Assessment Tool, with follow-ups until week 4.

Addition of sodium criterion to SOAR stroke score
Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοHead,Neck,Brain,Cervical Spine and Esophageal Cancers by Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 2 ώρες
Objectives To examine the usefulness of including sodium (Na) levels as a criterion to the SOAR stroke score in predicting inpatient and 7-day mortality in stroke. Materials and Methods Data from the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital Stroke & TIA register (2003–2015) were analysed. Univariate and then multivariate models controlling for SOAR variables were used to assess the association between admission sodium levels and inpatient and 7-day mortality. The prognostic ability of the SOAR and SOAR Na scores for mortality outcomes at both time points were then compared using t... περισσότερα »

Design of complex adaptive multiresolution directional filter bank and application to pansharpening
Abstract This paper proposes a new 2-D transform design, namely *complex adaptive multiresolution directional filter bank*, to represent the spatial orientation features of an input image *adaptively*. The proposed design is completely *shift invariant* and represents the input image by one low-pass and multiscale *N* directional band-pass subbands. Here, *N* represents estimated number of dominant directions present in the input image. Our design consists of two main filter bank stages. A fix partitioned complex-valued directional filter bank (CDFB) is at the core of the design f... περισσότερα »

Risk factors for periprosthetic joint infection following primary total hip or knee arthroplasty: a meta-analysis
Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοHead,Neck,Brain,Cervical Spine and Esophageal Cancers by Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 2 ώρες
Abstract To identify risk factors for periprosthetic joint infection following primary total joint arthroplasty, a systematic search was performed in Pubmed, Embase and Cochrane library databases. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) or standardised mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Patient characteristics, surgical-related factors and comorbidities, as potential risk factors, were investigated. The main factors associated with infection after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) were male gender (OR, 1·48; 95% CI, 1.19–1.85), age (SMD, −0·10; 95% CI, −0.1... περισσότερα »
Relationship between maceration and wound healing on diabetic foot ulcers in Indonesia: a prospective study
Alexandros G. SfakianakisστοHead,Neck,Brain,Cervical Spine and Esophageal Cancers by Alexandros G. SfakianakisΠριν από 2 ώρες
Abstract The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between maceration and wound healing. A prospective longitudinal design was used in this study. The wound condition determined the type of dressings used and the dressing change frequency. A total of 62 participants with diabetic foot ulcers (70 wounds) were divided into two groups: non-macerated (*n* = 52) and macerated wounds (*n* = 18). Each group was evaluated weekly using the Bates–Jensen Wound Assessment Tool, with follow-ups until week 4. The Mann–Whitney *U* test showed that the changes in the wound area in week... περισσότερα »
