The 2017 Concussion in Sport Group (CISG) consensus statement is designed to build on the principles outlined previous statements1–4 and develop further conceptual understanding of sport-related concussion (SRC) using an expert consensus-based approach. This document developed for physicians healthcare providers who are involved athlete care, whether at a recreational, elite or professional level. While agreement exists principal messages conveyed by this document, authors acknowledge that...

The new 2012 Zurich Consensus statement is designed to build on the principles outlined in previous documents and develop further conceptual understanding of this problem using a formal consensus-based approach. A detailed description consensus process at end document under Background section. This developed primarily for use by physicians healthcare professionals who are involved care injured athletes, whether recreational, elite or professional level.

The inflationary prediction of a flat Universe is at odds with current determinations the matter density $({\ensuremath{\Omega}}_{M}\ensuremath{\simeq}0.2\ensuremath{-}0.4).$ This dilemma can be resolved if smooth component contributes remaining energy $({\ensuremath{\Omega}}_{X}=1\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\Omega}}_{M}).$ We parametrize by its equation state, ${p}_{X}=w{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{X},$ and show that $X$CDM $w\ensuremath{\simeq}\ensuremath{-}0.6,$...

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), or concussion, in children is a rapidly growing public health concern because epidemiologic data indicate marked increase the number of emergency department visits for mTBI over past decade. However, no evidence-based clinical guidelines have been developed to date diagnosing and managing pediatric United States.To provide guideline based on previous systematic review literature obtain assess evidence toward developing recommendations care professionals...

The presence of dark energy in the Universe is inferred directly from accelerated expansion Universe, and, indirectly, measurements cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy. Dark contributes about two-thirds critical density, smoothly distributed, has large negative pressure, and very mysterious. For now, all its discernible cosmological consequences follow effect on rate Universe. Absent a compelling theoretical model (or even class models), we describe by equation state...

Obesity-associated increases in adipose tissue (AT) CD11c(+) cells suggest that dendritic (DC), which are involved the recruitment and activation of macrophages, may play a role determining AT liver immunophenotype obesity. This study addressed this hypothesis. With use flow cytometry, electron microscopy, loss-and-gain function approaches, contribution DC to pattern immune cell alterations obesity was assessed. In there substantial, high-fat diet (HFD)-induced increase DC. AT, these were...

Abstract The definitions of tolerogenic vs immunogenic dendritic cells (DC) remain controversial. Immature DC have been shown to induce T regulatory (Treg) specific for foreign and allogeneic Ags. However, we previously reported that mature (mDC) prevented the onset autoimmune diabetes, whereas immature (iDC) were therapeutically ineffective. In this study, islet-specific CD4+ from BDC2.5 TCR-transgenic mice stimulated in absence exogenous cytokine with iDC or mDC pulsed high- low-affinity...

Abstract Noninvasive methods to image the trafficking of phenotypically defined immune cells are paramount as we attempt understand adaptive immunity. A 19 F MRI‐based methodology for tracking and quantifying a phenotype is presented. These were applied murine inflammation model using antigen‐specific T cells. The that intracellularly labeled ex vivo with perfluoropolyether (PFPE) nanoemulsion transferred host receiving localized inoculation antigen. Longitudinal MRI over 21 days revealed...
