Although the kidney is a major organ for vitamin D metabolism, activity, and calcium-related homeostasis, little known about whether this nutrient plays role in development or inhibition of cancer. To address gap knowledge, authors examined association between circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin (25(OH)D) cancer within large, nested case-control study developed as part Cohort Consortium Vitamin Pooling Project Rarer Cancers. Concentrations 25(OH)D were measured from 775 cases age-, sex-, race-,...
Abstract Artificial APCs (aAPCs) genetically modified to express selective costimulatory molecules provide a reproducible, cost-effective, and convenient method for polyclonal Ag-specific expansion of human T cells adoptive immunotherapy. Among the variety aAPCs that have been studied, acellular beads expressing anti-CD3/anti-CD28 efficiently expand CD4+ cells, but not CD8+ cells. Cell-based can effectively cytolytic optimal signals defined. 4-1BB, molecule expressed by minority resting is...
Results from epidemiologic studies examining pancreatic cancer risk and vitamin D intake or 25-hydroxyvitamin (25(OH)D) concentrations (the best indicator of derived diet sun) have been inconsistent. Therefore, the authors conducted a pooled nested case-control study participants 8 cohorts within Cohort Consortium Vitamin Pooling Project Rarer Cancers (VDPP) (1974–2006) to evaluate whether prediagnostic circulating 25(OH)D were associated with development cancer. In total, 952 incident...
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common psychiatric disease. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are an important class of drugs used in the treatment MDD. However, many patients do not respond adequately to SSRI therapy. We pharmacometabolomics-informed pharmacogenomic research strategy identify citalopram/escitalopram outcome biomarkers. Metabolomic assay plasma samples from 20 escitalopram remitters and nonremitters showed that glycine was negatively associated with (P =...
The Cohort Consortium Vitamin D Pooling Project of Rarer Cancers (VDPP), a consortium 10 prospective cohort studies from the United States, Finland, and China, was formed to examine associations between circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin (25(OH)D) concentrations risk rarer cancers. Cases (total n = 5,491) included incident primary endometrial (n 830), kidney 775), ovarian 516), pancreatic 952), upper gastrointestinal tract 1,065) cancers non-Hodgkin lymphoma 1,353) diagnosed in participating...
It has been highlighted that youth empowerment and participation are important principles for school health promotion. Despite this fact, children rarely given instruments to participate or influence their situations the environments in schools. Photovoice is a method increased participation. Originally it was created as community action research based on Freire's critical pedagogy feminist theory. The purpose of study explore challenges opportunities applying photovoice setting support...

Abstract Background Pneumocystis jirovecii , formerly carinii pneumonia (PCP) poses a life‐threatening risk to oncology patients. The use of trimethoprim‐sulfamethoxazole (TMP‐SMZ) prophylaxis virtually eliminates the infection; however, many patients cannot tolerate TMP‐SMZ. We performed retrospective analysis determine PCP breakthrough rate in pediatric receiving intravenous pentamidine as second line prophylaxis. Procedure conducted chart review who received from 2001 2006 at our...
Education is an important factor in health equity, but many students still do not complete high school. A focus on the school context rather than individual problems might help to create a supportive environment for and learning. In this study we explored factors that promote learning from perspective of vocational low-achieving Sweden. We used grounded theory with constructivist orientation, informed sensitized by concept salutogenesis. Students mid-sized municipality Sweden participated,...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the evidence interlinkages between Lean and sustainability among organisational leaders in early stages implementation. Design/methodology/approach A multiple-site case study was conducted connections sustainable development during implementation a practice. In-depth interviews were with managers about their knowledge understanding development. findings then used as an analytic frame determine whether these present organisation. Findings...

The study of emotion is hindered by the lack tests for affect perception or comprehension. One solution to develop affective versions well-known tests. Using an index word norms (Toglia & Battig, 1978), positively and negatively valenced lists were developed as alternate forms affectively neutral Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVL; Rey, 1964). Participants (N=102) received either original RAVL list, list. Results are depicted across acquisition trials location within list comparison primacy...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify constraints and possibilities develop a value-based leadership in manufacturing using storytelling as co-creative method process. Design/methodology/approach A multi-site case study was conducted which used data collection tool process explore dimensions the company’s cultures that could provide deeper understanding about exist for developing manufacturing. Findings Storytelling has positive impact on communication highlighting important...
Background: Repeated fetal heart rates (FHR) < 3rd percentile for gestational age (GA) with 1:1 atrioventricular conduction (sinus bradycardia) can be a marker long QT syndrome. We hypothesized that other inherited arrhythmia syndromes might present sinus bradycardia. Methods: reviewed pregnancies referred bradycardia to the Colorado Fetal Care Center between 2013 and 2023. FHR/GA data, family history, medication exposure, normalized isovolumic contraction times (n-IVRT), postnatal...
