Naturally occurring cell death is a fundamental developmental mechanism for regulating numbers and sculpting developing organs. This particularly true in the nervous system, where large of neurons oligodendrocytes are eliminated via apoptosis during normal development. Given profound impact upon these two major populations, it surprising that another type—the astrocyte—has rarely been studied. It presently unclear whether astrocytes subject to significant death, if so, how occurs. Here, we...

Background The exponential increase in the incidence of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections has imposed great burdens on hospital systems. Although there are vast antibiotic options for treatment MRSA, eradication is often tough. There not many studies highlighting post-discharge readmission rates MRSA patients. Objective primary aim study was to describe 30-day rate patients hospitalized with a positive culture from single center, secondary analyzing 90-day rates....

Background: Although cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in men and women, women are less likely than to received certain evidence-based treatments for CVD or be enrolled clinical trials. This study sought identify sex differences outcomes among patients referred BRIDGE transitional care clinic following hospitalization a cardiac event. Methods: Retrospective data on from 2008-2016 were analyzed. Demographics (readmissions, emergency department [ED] visits, death)...
