Publication date: November 2019Source: International Immunopharmacology, Volume 76Author(s): Yingying Han, Chunyang Kang, Mingyang Kang, Wei Quan, Heming Gao, Zhuan ZhongAbstractParkinson's disease is normally accompanied by excessive inflammation. Myocardial infraction associated transcript 2 (Mirt2) has an activity to relieve inflammation in numerous cell types. Here, we aimed to investigate whether Mirt2 could elevate the resistance of SH-Sy5y cells to inflammation. Tumor necrosis factor alpha...

The incidence of advanced T3/T4 rectal cancers with positive circumferential resection margins after surgery in Western Sydney is significantly higher than recent national estimates. This may be exacerbated by failure to treat eligible patients with appropriate neoadjuvant therapy. Abstract Background Positive circumferential resections are associated with local disease recurrence and reduced survival in rectal cancer. We studied a cohort of consecutive rectal cancer resections to assess...
Abstract Background We aimed to evaluate the evolution and implementation of the massive transfusion protocol (MTP) in an urban level 1 trauma centre. Most data on this topic comes from trauma centres with high exposure to life‐threatening haemorrhage. This study examines the effect of the introduction of an MTP in an Australian level 1 trauma centre. Methods A retrospective study of prospectively collected data was performed over a 14‐year period. Three groups of trauma patients, who received...
Abstract Background The geography of rural Australia poses a myriad of logistical dilemmas, including the provision of timely access to emergency orthopaedic hip fracture surgery. Current guidelines support surgery within 48 h, and delays to transfer to a referral hospital may result in worse outcomes and increase mortality rates. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of transfer delays on the clinical outcomes of hip fractures in a rural setting. Methods We retrospectively reviewed...

Abstract Introduction Lactation inevitably leads to a state of rapid bone loss; however, maternal bone undergoes rapid remineralization after weaning. Sclerostin, encoded by the gene SOST, is exclusively secreted from osteocytes and plays important roles in bone remodeling. However, there are few studies about the effect of sclerostin during lactation and weaning on bone microstructures. Therefore, we conducted the study to demonstrate...

Key points Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) delivered at levels sufficient to generate a fused contraction is capable of promoting restorative changes in a number of neurological disorders. With respect to lower levels of stimulation – at intensities close to motor threshold, the evidence that NMES promotes restorative neural adaptations is equivocal. Adjuvant techniques, such as voluntary contractions and mental imagery, may promote restorative responses to NMES delivered at intensities...
