Abstract The biological function of miRNA (miR)-424-5p in glioma has not been clarified. This study was to explore the roles of miR-424-5p/Bifunctional apoptosis regulator (BFAR) axis in glioma. Ninety-six pairs of human glioma tissues and their adjacent non-cancer tissues were collected. The levels of BFAR and miR-424-5p were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in glioma tissues and cell lines. Moreover, the biological roles of miR-424-5p and BFAR in glioma...

Learning to fish isn’t hard once you know the basics. (Bob McNally/)This story originally featured on Field & Stream.For most serious anglers, it was their family and friends who showed them the basics of the sport. But not everyone was lucky enough to have been mentored to a lifetime of outdoor fun pursuing and catching fish.The good news is, learning to fish isn’t difficult. And it offers never-ending challenges in the outdoors. Even old hands at the game can learn about new types of tackle,...

Cookie cutter-lawns can be traced back to the flight of rich Chicagoans, who were looking for a more tranquil, sprawled-out setting on the outskirts of the city. (David McBee/Pexels/)Just three miles outside Chicago lies Riverside, Illinois, a quiet 1,600-acre village that looks like a tidy Stepford suburb. Few people, however, know that it helped set the mold for many more ‘burbs to come.In the 1860s, a group of local investors wanted to lure home buyers to their land, so they commissioned landscape...

Notice the new tracking cameras on the outside of the headset. (HP /)Virtual reality’s march toward mainstream acceptance has continued slowly along, but now HP is hoping its new $599 Reverb G2 headset will give players another attractive hardware option to compete with the Oculus Rift S. While HP doesn’t have the most VR credibility on the block, it built the Reverb G2 in conjunction with venerable gaming company Valve, which already makes one of the best consumer VR rigs around, with its perpetually...

Abstract Evidence indicates that neuroplasticity-based cognitive training can improve cognition in patients with schizophrenia, but the individual response to training varies greatly between subjects. Hence, there is a need to understand the neurological underpinnings of cognitive training to reveal predictors of treatment response. d-serine is a crucial modulator of neuroplasticity, and decreased levels of d-serine may contribute to deficits in neuroplasticity in schizophrenia....

We recently read with interest the article by Kaewkumnert et al.1 entitled “Comparison of intraosseous and submucosal dexamethasone injection in mandibular third molar surgery: a split-mouth randomized clinical trial”. We greatly appreciate studies that address new approaches to the control of postoperative events in mandibular third molar surgery, since third molar removal is one of the most common procedures performed by dental surgeons2. Furthermore, all strategies employed to control the intensity...

AbstractMedian sternotomy has been used to aide thyroidectomies demonstrating good outcomes; however no cases have been documented to show the use of mini-sternotomy to perform simultaneous thyroidectomy and valve surgery. We present a novel case of an 83-year-old woman with severe aortic stenosis and retrosternal goitre extending to the aortic arch deemed unsuitable for TAVI. Due to co-morbid status and anatomical position preventing routine thyroidectomy, we elected to perform a combined procedure...

AbstractSchistosomiasis infection is endemic in many parts of Tanzania. The morbidity due to Schistosomiasis and its association with cancer remains to be of great concern and poses greater challenge that needs to be assessed. Cancer is an increasing public health problem in most sub-Saharan African countries, and yet, cancer control programs and the provision of early detection and treatment services are limited despite this increasing burden. This article aims to discuss case series of patients...

AbstractVomiting-induced pneumomediastinum can be a result of barotrauma causing alveolar rupture or Boerhaave’s syndrome. Although a rare cause of secondary pneumomediastinum, Boerhaave’s syndrome allows extravasation of air and fluid due to oesophageal perforation. We report a case of a 20-year-old female who presented with prolonged vomiting during a panic attack. Extensive surgical emphysema and pneumomediastinum were visualised radiologically. A source of oesophageal rupture was not visualised...

AbstractAlthough parastomal hernias are a common complication of ostomy formation, herniation of intra-abdominal organs, aside from intestine, is infrequent. Furthermore, herniation of retroperitoneal organs, such as the kidney, is an extremely rare finding. We report the case of a 59-year-old male with a right ileostomy who presented with an acute kidney injury with suggestive urinary tract infection. A computed tomography scan revealed a left proximal ureteral stone with left hydronephrosis and...

AbstractCharcot arthropathy is a progressive condition primarily affecting the lower limbs in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is a rare complication of diabetic neuropathy and if left untreated can lead to severe limb destruction necessitating major amputation. Here, we report the case of a 41-year-old female who presented with rapidly progressive Charcot foot over a 10-day period, necessitating open reduction and internal fixation of Lisfranc-type fracture dislocations. Her presentation with...

AbstractA 60-year-old right-hand dominant woman presented to the emergency department with a 3-week history of pain and swelling in her right thumb. The X-ray showed evidence of erosion at the tip of the distal phalanx. Her initial management included surgical debridement with bone biopsies and intravenous antibiotics. The initial working diagnosis was a soft tissue infection of the thumb tip, causing osteomyelitis of the distal phalanx. The X-ray findings also raised the suspicion of a possible...

AbstractIntussusception (IS) is defined as invagination of part of the bowel into an adjacent section of the intestines and is the second most common cause of small bowel obstruction in children. Postoperative ileoileal intussusception after surgical reduction is a special type of ileoileal intussusception and is considered idiopathic. This research paper examines the case of a female Syrian toddler who had been diagnosed with ileoileal intussusception after surgical reduction. Diagnosis of celiac...

AbstractAppendiceal malakoplakia masquerading as a cecal mass is uniquely rare. The presence of an infiltrate of granular eosinophilic macrophages containing Michaelis–Gutmann bodies on histopathology is pathognomonic of malakoplakia. Cutaneous, gastrointestinal and most commonly urogenital malakoplakia is reported in association with an immunocompromised state, infectious, inflammatory and neoplastic processes. Presentation varies from microscopic disease to plaques, nodules, polypoid lesions and...

AbstractCantrell syndrome (CS) is defined as congenital combination of five anomalies: defects at the lower part of the sternum, anterior diaphragm, midline supraumbilical abdominal wall, diaphragmatic pericardium and ectopia cordis. Antenatal screening should be performed to make an accurate prenatal diagnosis. The prognosis is usually poor with a high mortality early in life. The gold standard management is surgery but its prognosis remains poor. In many low-income settings prenatal examinations...

Lower limb prostheses that are self-powered and help users walk fairly naturally don’t work well on varying surfaces. Walking on paved concrete is very different from traversing a grassy field, but without knowing the terrain below it is impossible for a prosthetic to adjust accordingly. Now, researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a camera-based artificial intelligence system that can recognize a variety of terrains and signal a prosthetic to change how it moves to match the...

Electroencephalography (EEG) is widely used to study brain activity, but the electrodes that are typically used to record brainwaves on the scalp make it impractical to use EEG for extended periods of time. They are usually hard, require a gel to be applied, and are applied en masse using a tightly worn head cap. Now, researchers at Graz University of Technology in Austria have developed ultra-thin electrodes that can be manufactured using inject printers and worn unobtrusively on the head for long...
