Multiple Anesthesia/Surgery Cannot Impair Reference Memory in Adult Mice

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction increases mortality and morbidity in perioperative patients. Numerous studies have demonstrated that multiple surgery/anesthesia during the neurodevelopmental period affects cognitive function, whereas a single anesthesia/surgery rarely causes cognitive dysfunction in adults. However, whether adults who undergo multiple anesthesia/surgery over a short period will experience cognitive dysfunction remains unclear. In this study, central nervous system inflammation...

Leptin Regulated ILC2 Cell through the PI3K/AKT Pathway in Allergic Rhinitis

Background. Recent studies suggest that leptin is involved in Th2 response in allergic rhinitis (AR). However, the effect of leptin on type II innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in AR is not well characterized. Methods. Twenty-six AR patients and 20 healthy controls were enrolled. Serum leptin levels were measured, and their correlation with ILC2 and type II cytokines were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry. ILC2 differentiation and cytokine production stimulated...

Insufficient increase in bone mineral density testing rates and pharmacotherapy after hip fracture in Japan

Abstract Introduction Only a few large-scale studies have examined the care gap in Japan. The present study aims to examine the care gap for secondary fracture prevention. Materials and methods Changes in the rates of bone mineral density testing (test rate) and osteoporosis pharmacotherapy administration (treatment rate) before and after hip and vertebral...

Effect of whole body vibration on HIF-2α expression in SD rats with early knee osteoarthritis

Abstract Introduction To investigate the effect of different frequencies of whole body vibration (WBV) on articular cartilage of early knee osteoarthritis (OA) rats and determine whether WBV would influence the pathway of hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) regulation-related genes after 8 weeks of treatment. Materials and methods Forty 8-week-old...

Bone turnover correlates with bone quantity but not bone microarchitecture in chronic hemodialysis

Sat Mar 07, 2020 02:00

Abstract Introduction In chronic hemodialysis, high-turnover bone disease was associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD), poor bone quality (chemical and structural), and increased fracture risk. Our aim was to correlate bone turnover markers (BTMs) with bone microarchitecture measured by trabecular bone score (TBS) before and after correction for BMD. Materials...

How long is the interval over which trial-to-trial effects on Fitts’ Law task can operate?

Abstract Fitts’ Law is a well-studied principle in psychology which holds that movement time (MT) varies with the size and distance of a target across a wide range of tasks. In a recent study, the authors demonstrated that performance on a current trial in a Fitts’ Law paradigm is affected by what happens during the previous trial (Tang et al. in Psychon Bull Rev 25(5):1833–1839, 2018). The aim of the present study was to explore how long this trial-to-trial transfer might last...

Balance control is impaired by mental fatigue due to the fulfilment of a continuous cognitive task or by the watching of a documentary

Abstract The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of mental fatigue (MF) induced by a 90-min continuous demanding cognitive task on balance control. Twenty healthy young participants were recruited. They had to perform three postural tasks (on a stable support with eyes open, with eyes closed and on a wobble board) while standing on a force platform before and after watching a documentary in a control condition or carrying out a prolonged continuous demanding cognitive...

Cooperative behaviour and phenotype plasticity evolve during melanoma progression

Abstract A major challenge for managing melanoma is its tumour‐heterogeneity based on individual co‐existing melanoma cell phenotypes. These phenotypes display variable responses to standard therapies and they drive individual steps of melanoma progression; hence understanding their behaviour is imperative. Melanoma phenotypes are defined by distinct transcriptional states, which relate to different melanocyte lineage development phases, ranging from a mesenchymal, neural crest‐like to a proliferative,...
