Spinal cord trauma leads to the destruction of highly organized cytoarchitecture that carries information along axis spinal column. Currently, there are no clinically accepted strategies can help regenerate severed axons after injury (SCI). Hydrogels soft biomaterials with high water content widely used as scaffolds interface central nervous system (CNS). Here, we examine a simple and reproducible method results in consistently aligned fibrils within 3D matrices using thermally gelling...
The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 presents many challenges to healthcare systems and infrastructures across the world, exacerbating inequalities leaving world's most vulnerable populations affected. Given their density available infrastructure, refugee internally displaced person (IDP) settlements can be particularly susceptible disease spread. In this paper we present an agent-based modeling approach simulating in IDP under various non-pharmaceutical intervention...
Surveillance colonoscopy 1 year after surgical resection for patients with stages I-III colorectal cancer (CRC) is suboptimal, and data on factors associated lack of adherence are limited. Using surveillance from Washington state, we aimed to determine the patient, clinic, geographical adherence.Using administrative insurance claims linked registry data, conducted a retrospective cohort study adult diagnosed stage CRC between 2011 2018 continuous at least 18 months diagnosis. We determined...
Abstract The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 presents many challenges to healthcare systems and infrastructures across the world, exacerbating inequalities leaving world’s most vulnerable populations affected. Given their density available infrastructure, refugee internally displaced person (IDP) settlements can be particularly susceptible disease spread. Non-pharmaceutical public health interventions used mitigate transmission, modeling efforts provide crucial insights on...
