MUC1 (CD227), a membrane tethered mucin glycoprotein, is overexpressed in >60% of human pancreatic cancers (PCs), and associated with poor prognosis, enhanced metastasis chemoresistance. The objective this study was to delineate the mechanism by which induces drug resistance (BxPC3 Capan-1) mouse (KCKO, KCM) PC cells. We report that cells express high levels exhibit increased chemotherapeutic drugs (gemcitabine etoposide) comparison low MUC1. This chemo attributed expression multidrug (MDR)...
Abstract Background The patient journey from threatened to actual limb loss, subsequent rehabilitation, and preservation through the health system is complicated prone delays, attrition, inequities. A shared multi(socioecological)‐level conceptualization of this among multiple stakeholders first step for systematically improving care identification bottlenecks gaps, contributory factors, responsive interventions implementation strategies. Objective To meet knowledge gap by presenting a novel...
Mechanical data on upper extremity surrogate bones, supporting use as biomechanical tools, is limited. The objective of this study was to characterize the structural behaviour fourth-generation composite humerus under simulated physiologic bending, specifically, stiffness, rigidity, and mid-diaphysial surface strains. Three humeri were tested in four-point anatomically defined anteroposterior (AP) mediolateral (ML) planes. Stiffness rigidity derived using load–displacement data. Principal...
Helen keller' once said that "Someone having sight without any vision is worse than being blind".In the last two decades world have seen unprecedented amounts of growth in computers, but for visually impaired people still remains dark and stunted.Ever since early days computers till now very few initiatives been taken to escalate no blinds using these technologies.To amend current scenario well-versed technique Audio feedback or IVR (previously applied virtual environments like text readers)...
Purpose: The multistep journey to prosthetic device-enabled functioning following amputation requires a structured approach for optimal care delivery, but such program structures and outcomes are inadequately characterized. study is responsive by describing an implementation framework lower limb loss rehabilitation evaluating its utility.Materials methods: continuum (LLRC) was developed using literature-based of phase concepts as well input from stakeholders. LLRC structure includes five...
Abstract Physical medicine and rehabilitation residency programs do not demonstrate a uniform level of training mentorship for resident scholarly activities related in part to variable utilization standardized curricula. The aim this study was design, develop, implement, evaluate structured Quality Improvement Research Curriculum physical program academic year 2015 using methodology. A combination five-phase project-lifecycle six-step medical-curriculum development methodologies used...
Background: In December 2019, China reported a severe upper respiratory failure syndrome caused by new virus identified as coronavirus COVID-19. Aims and Objectives: The aim of this exploratory study is to outline the current state pulmonary rehabilitation in Latin American (LA) countries during COVID-19 pandemic. Materials Methods: A total 1162 professionals (rehabilitation medicine specialists residents, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists) from 20 LA answered...
Abstract Melatonin is an intracellular antioxidant of sperm membrane that protects the cells from lipid peroxidation. Yet, its role as on semen quality buffalo bulls still obscure. The present study was undertaken to assess effect exogenous melatonin implant (18 mg/50 kg bodyweight) post‐thaw characteristics, oxidative stress, endocrinological profiles and fertility bulls. Six apparently healthy breeding Murrah were randomly selected at bull farm, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary Animal Sciences...
Background: There is limited consensus regarding the economic value of prosthetic devices with advancing age. We aimed to meet this knowledge gap by studying cost-effectiveness lower limb prostheses (LLPs) for older adults dysvascular amputations. Methods Design: constructed a decision analytic model nested Markov models lifetime horizon compare LLP recipients (LLP) non-recipients (no-LLP) from health care sector perspective. A 3% annual rate was applied obtain present main outcome measures....
As health care attempts to bridge the gap between evidence and practice, concept of learning system (LHS) is becoming increasingly relevant. LHS integrates with systems data, driving quality outcomes through updates in policy, delivery. In addition, research critically important as there are several initiatives underway increase capacity, expertise, implementation, including stimulate increasing numbers researchers. Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) physicians (physiatrists), nurses,...
To assess sociodemographic, medical complexity, and outcomes of persons receiving care at inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) with without a diagnosis COVID-19.A retrospective cohort study using electronic record (EMR) data from 138 IRFs across 34 states Puerto Rico.N/A.IRF EMR for 212,663 patients discharged between 04/01/2020 05/31/2021 (N=212,663), which 16,199 (COVID-19 group) had primary or secondary COVID-19 based upon ICD codes set (ICD-10 U07.1, B94.8, Z86.19, Z86.16).Four...
Unlike some of our invertebrate and vertebrate cousins with the capacity to regenerate limbs after traumatic loss, humans do not have ability regrow arms or legs lost injury disease. For millions people worldwide who a limb birth, primary route regaining function minimizing future complications is via rehabilitation, prosthetic devices, assistive aids, health system robustness, social safety net structures. The majority are lower (legs), diabetes vascular disorders being significant causal...
There is increasing pressure in the health care system to provide high-quality, efficient rehabilitation patients throughout continuum and especially across post-acute (PAC) settings, including skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). The American Academy of Physical Medicine Rehabilitation (AAPM&R) recognizes that physiatrists are essential medical experts indispensable leadership SNFs. Physiatrists uniquely suited vital patient SNFs due their extensive training, expertise, commitment achieving...
