Noise Exposure May Cause Even More Hearing Loss Than Doctors Thought

By Nala RogersResearchers have long debated why so many people lose their hearing as they age. Some have argued that the problem lies mainly with the stria vascularis, a sort of battery in the inner ear that powers the transformation of sound energy into nerve impulses. But a new study places the blame largely with hair cells -- the same sensory organs that are damaged by loud noises.Most details of the inner ear are impossible to examine while people are alive. To really see what’s going on, researchers...

Autism treatment with stem cells: a case report

OBJECTIVE: Autism Spectrum Disorder is a complex brain disorder and has multiple causes that occur in diverse combinations. There is a need to classify children with ASD at a very young age so that they can access evidence-based intervention that can significantly improve their outcomes. CASE REPORT: In this report we present a case of autism, which underwent intrathecal autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation along with neurorehabilitation. The primary goal of the treatment is...

A standard technique with potential diagnostic value for estimating the quadriceps muscle strength of critically ill patients

OBJECTIVE: Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICUAW) is common, and so far, there is no digital technology with a standard procedure to estimate the muscle strength of these patients. Quadriceps maximal isometric voluntary contraction (QMVC) is a precise and reliable procedure to detect quadriceps muscle strength. Therefore, this research aimed to explore whether QMVC measurements can be used in critically ill patients at the bedside as a potential diagnostic method. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Tailor-made...

Inverse association between serum endocan levels and small LDL and HDL particles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

OBJECTIVE: Determination of lipoprotein size and subclasses distribution can provide more significant information on cardiovascular disease risk than measurement of traditional lipid parameters alone. Accordingly, we aimed to examine their potential relationship with the novel biomarker of endothelial dysfunction, such as endocan in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), since there are no studies concerning this issue. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This case-control study included a total of 42...

Metformin doses and body mass index: clinical outcomes in insulin resistant polycystic ovary syndrome women

OBJECTIVE: PCOS is the most common endocrinopathy among reproductive age women. Approximately 60% of PCOS women have insulin resistance. While the efficacy of metformin in reducing insulin resistance and decreasing androgen level has been widely validated, there is no agreement on the dose of metformin to be used. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Prospective non-randomized cohort study of 108 insulin resistant, overweight and obese PCOS women, aged between 22 and 35 years. All patients received 1500 mg of...

OBJECTIVE: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a serious chronic complication leading to disability and death in patients suffering from diabetes. Currently, there is no effective marker for its early diagnosis. The aim of this study is to analyze the difference of circRNA expression profiles between DFU and normal human wounds (NHW) and to screen serum biomarkers for the early diagnosis of DFU. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Differentially expressed circRNAs were screened by bioinformatics analysis, using GSE114248...

Chemical shift imaging in the identification of those renal tumours that contain microscopic fat and the utility of multiparametric MRI in their differentiation

Abstract Introduction The aim of this study was to assess the qualitative and MRI findings of renal tumours, to determine which lesions contain microscopic fat, one of the potential differentiating factors between tumour types. Methods 73 patients who underwent 3 Tesla MRI including chemical shift imaging, with subsequent biopsy or excision for histopathological diagnosis, were included in the study. The images were reviewed for a decrease in signal intensity (SI) on the opposed phase compared...

Antiviral Chemistry and Chemotherapy, Volume 28, Issue , January-December 2020. Respiratory Syncytial Virus is a yearly respiratory virus that causes significant frequencies of morbidities, particularly in the young and elderly populations. However, preventive vaccines and/or treatment therapies are generally lacking, although much attention is now being placed on this virus. Moreover, there are now multiple strategies currently being explored in a race to the first licensed vaccine. While vaccines...

This study recruited 15 patients with gastroparesis (13 diabetic) who were given prucalopride 4 mg daily or placebo for 4 weeks in a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled crossover design. The primary outcome measures of symptoms were not different between groups. However, gastric emptying and bowel movement frequency were accelerated with prucalopride. The medication was well tolerated. Further study with larger sample sizes, and/or dose adjustment, is warranted. Abstract Background...

Histone H3K9 methylation regulates chronic stress and IL‐6–induced colon epithelial permeability and visceral pain

Chronic stress increases levels of pro‐inflammatory cytokines, decreases GR transcriptional binding at epithelia cell tight junction gene promoters reducing tight junction gene expression, culminating in increased paracellular permeability and enhanced visceral pain sensation. Methylation of the repressive histone H3K9me2/me3 plays a central role in this process. Abstract Background Chronic stress is associated with activation of the HPA axis, elevation in pro‐inflammatory cytokines,...

Abstract Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by rapidly progressing necrolytic ulceration of the skin. Proper treatment is crucial since it can result in devastating consequences. First‐line treatments include systemic corticosteroids or cyclosporine. However, no standardized treatment regimens for refractory cases exist and treatment outcomes are affected by underlying conditions.
