Abstract Aims Previous studies found a relationship between elevated phenylalanine levels and poor cardiovascular outcomes. Potential strategies are available to manipulate metabolism. This study investigated whether increased predicted mortality in critical patients with either acute heart failure (HF) or on chronic HF, its correlation inflammation immune cytokines. Methods results recruited 152 subjects, including 115 HF admitted for conditions 37 normal controls. We measured left...
As the LEO satellite industry rapidly expands, demand for remote sensing and telecommunications in marine suburban areas is increasing. Developing higher bandwidth communication interfaces has b ecome a crucial focus space industry. Free optical (FSO) offers bandwidths hundreds of times greater than traditional microwave links, enabling efficient transmission large volumes data. However, current commercial sate llite tracking systems lack high precision needed space-ground laser...
Vaccination plays an important role during the COVID-19 pandemic. Vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a major adverse effect that could be lethal. For cancer patients, cancer-related thromboembolism another lethal complication. When patients receive their vaccines, following thromboembolic events will more complicated. We presented case recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, who had received mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccination 12 days prior. Ischemic stroke and VITT were...
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) are at high risk of mortality which is not well predicted. Previous studies noted that leucine has prognostic value a variety diseases. This study investigated whether concentration was useful biomarker metabolic and nutritional status 6-month ICU. We recruited 454 subjects admitted to ICU (348 106 initiation validation cohorts, respectively) with an acute physiology chronic health evaluation (APACHE II) score ≥ 15. measured plasma concentrations,...
Hyperphenylalaninemia predicts poor outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, the prognostic value and factors associated stress hyperphenylalaninemia (SHP) were unknown critical cardiac ICU.
Abstract This study synthesizes thermally sensitive block copolymers poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide)‐ b ‐poly(4‐methyl‐ε‐caprolactone) (PNIPA‐ ‐PMCL) and ‐poly(4‐phenyl‐ε‐caprolactone) ‐PBCL) by ring‐opening polymerization of 4‐methyl‐ε‐caprolactone (MCL) or 4‐phenyl‐ε‐caprolactone (BCL) initiated from hydroxy‐terminated ‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) as the macroinitiator in presence SnOct 2 catalyst. research prepares a PNIPA bearing single terminal hydroxyl group telomerization using...
Abstract Aim To evaluate the influence of uterine artery occlusion at myomectomy (UAO + M) on ovarian reserve based serum sex hormone levels, ultrasound and color Doppler examinations. Methods In this cohort study, nine women with symptomatic myomas underwent UAO M were recruited. Each woman was assessed preoperatively 3, 6 months postoperatively, through a serial hormonal, parameters examination for stromal blood flow. The data analyzed using generalized estimating equations. Results There...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate and compare the long‐term clinical outcomes of four different transvaginal mesh systems. Methods This retrospective study included 695 patients classified into groups (Prolift, n = 132; Perigee‐Apogee, 186; Prosima, 60; Elevate; 317), with a median follow‐up time 5.8 years (range 0.5‐12.2 years). The were objective anatomic success (Pelvic Organ Prolapse [POP] Quantification system stage ≤1), exposure, urologic functional assessments. Results For outcomes, we...
Abstract Amphiphilic thermally sensitive poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide)‐ block ‐poly(tetramethylene carbonate) copolymers were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization of tetramethylene carbonate with hydroxyl‐terminated ‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNiPAAm) as macro‐initiator in the presence stannous octoate catalyst. The synthesis involved PNiPAAm bearing a single terminal hydroxyl group prepared telomerization using 2‐hydroxyethanethiol chain‐transfer agent. characterized 1 H NMR and Fourier...
Abstract This study reports the successful synthesis of amphiphilic MPEG‐ b ‐PCL based‐block copolymers bearing benzyloxy and hydroxyl side groups on PCL block by ring‐opening polymerization 4‐benzyloxy‐ε‐caprolactone (4‐BOCL) ε‐caprolactone (ε‐CL) with methoxy PEG (550 g mol −1 ) as initiator Tin(II) 2‐ethylhexanoate (SnOct 2 catalyst. These were characterized differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), 1 H NMR, gel permeation chromatography. The thermal properties ( T m s) depend polymer...
To investigate whether the time interval between primary debulking surgery (PDS) and initiating adjuvant chemotherapy affects survival in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).We retrospectively reviewed FIGO stage IIB to IV EOC who received PDS followed by our hospital January 2008 December 2016. The optimal cut-off related was determined using Contal O'Quigley method Cox hazard models. regression analysis used identify independent effect of on survival.A total 152 were identified...
Abstract Objective This study aimed to compare the efficacy of anticoagulation therapy and thrombolytic for pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients complicated with shock. Methods retrospective cohort used administrative data from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. Patients admitted due PE who received inotropic support between January 1, 1997, December 31, 2011, were included. To closely mimic a randomized experiment, thrombolysis plus groups subjected propensity score...
<div>Abstract<p>Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are strongly associated with tumor progression and have been used as novel cell-based agents to deliver anticancer drugs tumors. However, controversies about the direct involvement of MSCs in suggest that mediate a cancer type-dependent manner. In this report, we analyzed functional interactions between human lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) determine therapeutic potential cancer. We showed effectively inhibited migration, invasion,...
