This article analyses the general ethical milieu in a nursing home for elderly residents and provides decision-making model analysing situations that arise. It considers what it means to live together staff be ethically problematic when caring residents. An interpretative phenomenological approach Sandman’s proved useful this purpose. Systematic observations were carried out interpretation of was summarized as ‘being same world without meeting’. Two themes four subthemes emerged from...

Objectives The aims of this study were to identify factors significance in the development acute confusional state (ACS) and differences between patients who developed ACS those did not. Method Results Assessment, observations interviews with 505 admitted an orthopaedic clinic revealed that 51 during their in-hospital stay. Patients for hip fracture had a higher incidence (20.2%) than elective surgery coxarthros or gonarthros (3.6%). highest hazard ratio was several other physical diseases...

Wilms' tumour 1 (WT1) gene was discovered as a suppressor gene. Later findings have suggested that WT1 also can be oncogenic. This complexity is partly explained by the fact has number of target genes. and its human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) were analysed in clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC). In vitro experiments performed to examine functional link between hTERT overexpression isoforms ccRCC line, TK-10. demonstrated lower RNA expression compared with cortical tissue,...

Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to illuminate lived experience having been in an acute confusional state (ACS) as narrated by elderly patients orthopaedic care. Method Qualitative with phenomenological hermeneutic method for analysing the data based on narrative interviews. Fifty (67–96 years age) who developed ACS during hospitalisation and all cases ceased their stay ward were interviewed once lucid again regarding course event, experiences, memories interpretation what had...

Clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype among cancer and associated with poor prognosis if metastasized. Up to one third of patients local disease at diagnosis will develop metastasis after nephrectomy, there a need for new molecular markers identify high risk tumor progression. In present study, we performed genome-wide promoter DNA methylation analysis profiles progress. Diagnostic tissue samples from 115 ccRCC were analysed by Illumina HumanMethylation450K arrays...

We have previously described gene expression changes during spontaneous immortalization of T-cells, thereby identifying cellular processes important for cell growth crisis escape and unlimited proliferation. Here, we analyze the same model to investigate role genome-wide methylation in process at different time points pre-crisis post-crisis using high-resolution arrays. show that over culture there is an overall accumulation alterations, with preferential increased close transcription start...

Epigenetic alterations in the methylome have been associated with tumor development and progression renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In this study, 45 samples, 12 tumor-free kidney cortex tissues, 24 peripheral blood samples from patients clear RCC (ccRCC) were analyzed by genome-wide promoter-directed methylation arrays related to clinicopathological parameters. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering separated tumors into two distinct groups (clusters A B), where cluster B had higher average...
