An uncertain proportion of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) also experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). TPCA-1 mouse Predictors of OHCA in ACS remain unclear and vulnerable to selection bias as pre-hospital deceased patients are usually not included.
Data on patients aged 18-50years from a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and OHCA registry were combined to identify all patients experiencing OHCA due to ACS (not including those managed medically or who proceeded to cardiac surgery). Clinical, angiographic and forensic details were collated. In-hospital and post-discharge outcomes were compared between OHCA survivors and non-OHCA ACS patients.
OHCA occurred in 6.0% of ACS patients transported to hospital and 10.0% of all ACS patients. Clinical predictors were non-diabetic status (p=0.015), non-obesity (p=0.004), ST-elevation myocardial infarction (p<0.0001) and left main (p<0.0002) or left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery (p<0.0001) as culprit vessel. OHCA patients had phospital complications are observed. Despite this, recovery of pre-morbid physical and cardiac function is equivalent to non-OHCA patients, apart from higher rates of anxiety/depression.
Over 80% of perimenopausal women experience various physical and neuropsychiatric symptoms due to changes in female hormones. However, accurate evaluation and treatment of menopausal symptoms are lacking due to limited evidence regarding customized treatment for each symptom type.
This study aimed to identify and cluster psychosomatic symptoms in Korean perimenopausal women and to investigate the characteristics of each cluster type.
This Web-based survey assessed 1060 Korean perimenopausal women recruited from nationally representative panels available from a commercial research company. Menopausal symptoms were evaluated using the Menopause Rating Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire-15, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Insomnia Severity Index, Subjective Memory Complaints Questionnaire, and Overactive Bladder Symptom Score. Data were analyzed using latent profile analysis and multinomial logistic regression.
Latent profile analysis identified 4 latent classes "all unimpaired (class 1)," "impaired sexhistory of postpartum depression, psychosis, and other psychiatric disorders. Therefore, sexual dysfunction must be independently treated. Further studies are needed to develop and verify individualized treatments according to symptom class.Many malignancies are driven by mutations within the gene for fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1). Previously, we have shown that signal transduction from the FOP2-FGFR1 fusion protein in acute myeloid leukemia KG1 cells is responsible for a low level of expression of the vitamin D receptor gene. In this paper, we address whether other fibroblast growth factor receptors regulate the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene. We used the human myeloid leukemia U937 and HL60 cells, the bone cancer cell line U2OS, and cell transfection methods to answer the question. For myeloid leukemia cells, overexpression of FGFRs 1-3 genes caused a shift towards monocytic differentiation; this was extracellular regulated kinase (Erk) 1,2-dependent. Overexpression of FGFRs 1-3 genes also upregulated expression of the VDR gene, further sensitizing these cells to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-induced monocyte differentiation. When we increased expression in bone cells, fibroblast growth factor receptors did not upregulate VDR gene expression, nor influence the activity of VDR. Fibroblast growth factor receptors are overexpressed in many neoplasms. Therefore, it may be reasonable to use vitamin D analogs to treat these cancers, to activate VDR and drive cell differentiation.
To perform accurate laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) without injury, novel intraoperative systems of computer-assisted surgery (CAS) for LH are expected. Automated surgical workflow identification is a key component for developing CAS systems. This study aimed to develop a deep-learning model for automated surgical step identification in LH.
We constructed a dataset comprising 40 cases of pure LH videos; 30 and 10 cases were used for the training and testing datasets, respectively. Each video was divided into 30 frames per second as static images. LH was divided into nine surgical steps (Steps 0-8), and each frame was annotated as being within one of these steps in the training set. After extracorporeal actions (Step 0) were excluded from the video, two deep-learning models of automated surgical step identification for 8-step and 6-step models were developed using a convolutional neural network (Models 1 & 2). Each frame in the testing dataset was classified using the constructed model performed in real-time.
Above 8 million frames were annotated for surgical step identification from the pure LH videos. The overall accuracy of Model 1 was 0.891, which was increased to 0.947 in Model 2. Median and average accuracy for each case in Model 2 was 0.927 (range, 0.884-0.997) and 0.937±0.04 (standardized difference), respectively. Real-time automated surgical step identification was performed at 21 frames per second.
We developed a highly accurate deep-learning model for surgical step identification in pure LH. Our model could be applied to intraoperative systems of CAS.

Randomized trials have shown conflicting results regarding differences in outcomes according to anesthesia type on the prevalence of postoperative delirium (POD) or postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in hip surgery patients. The aim of this Meta analysis is to compare the effect of general and regional anesthesia in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.
A literature search for meta-analysis was performed using Pubmed, The Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science citation index for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to compare the regional anesthesia (RA) to general anesthesia (GA) for postoperative outcomes in elderly undergoing hip fracture surgery till June 2022. The primary outcomes were the incidence of POD or POCD at 24h, 3 days and 7 days postoperatively. The secondary outcomes were 30 days mortality rate and other adverse events. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane methodology.
Eight studies including 3555 elderly patients over 65 years old showed that there wasvely with either technique suggests that anesthesia choices for hip-fracture surgery may be based on the individual characteristics of each patient rather than on anticipated differences in clinical outcomes.Logic plays an important role in biological evolution. Some researchers even assume that evolution can be seen as a process of discovering the logic that works well in a particular environment. At the same time, logic can be treated as a biological system, or a superorganism, evolution of which goes in the social environment with its societal space and time. In this paper, syntactic aspects of the evolution of logic are studied demonstrating how logic evolves from the simplest logical species to the higher and higher logical species.The article is devoted to the author's results of the algebraic analysis of molecular genetic systems, including a set of structured DNA alphabets and long nucleotide sequences in single-stranded DNA of eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes. A connection of the system of DNA n-plets alphabets with principles of algebraic holography is shown, which concerns a popular theme of holography principles in genetically inherited physiology. In addition, a relation between DNA n-plets alphabets and the Poincaré disk model of Lobachevski hyperbolic geometry is revealed. This relation can explain known facts of the relationship of physiological phenomena with hyperbolic geometry. Considering long DNA sequences as a bunch of many parallel texts written in different n-plets alphabets led to the discovery of some universal rules of the stochastic organization of genomic DNAs. These rules are discussed concerning the general problem of the biological dualism "probability-vs-determinism". In general, the presented results give pieces of evidence in favor of the efficiency of a model approach to living organisms as quantum-informational algebraic-harmonic essences.
Current research shows that the resistance of Escherichia coli (E. coli) is mainly related to integron gene cassettes. To assess the resistance of E. coli of goose origin and the carriage of its integron genes in four farms in Heilongjiang Province, antibiotic resistance phenotypes and the presence of various types of integrons were investigated.
In this study, test strains were sampled and isolated from the farms, and 109 test strains were tested for drug sensitivity of 15 different antimicrobial drugs by the Kb disc diffusion method. Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect E. coli in three types of integrase genes (intI1, intI2, and intI3) and for sequencing analysis of the class I integron gene cassette.
Susceptibility test results show that more than 70% of tested strains exhibit resistant phenotypes to ampicillin, amoxicillin, imipenem, tetracycline, and doxycycline. The detection rate of class I integrons was 68.91%, while class II integrons and class III integrons were not detected. The detection rate of class I integrin gene cassette was 7.42%. Sequence analysis showed that strains carried different integron gene cassettes dfrA17-aadA5, dfrA1-aadA1, dfrA27-arr-3, and aminoglycoside 3-nucleotidyltransferase.
Results suggest that the detection rate of class I integrons is highly correlated with their drug resistance. Class I integrons provide a valuable guide to studying the spread and the expression of resistance genes and thus finding effective measures to prevent bacterial resistance.

Significantly, this loss of acid-peptic digestion has been found to correlate with the secondary genomic loss of the gastric proton pump subunits (atp4a, atp4b) and pepsinogens/pepsins (pga, pgc). Gastric glands produce gastric juice containing the acid and pepsin and thus their presence is a hallmark feature of a digestive system capable of acid-peptic digestion. However, in gobiid fishes although oesogaster and gastric glands have been identified histologically, their functional significance has been questioned. In the present study we address whether the gastric proton pump is present and expressed in gastric glands of the goby Neogobius species (Gobiidae) and in members of the family Oxudercidae, a group of amphibious gobiid fishes commonly known as mudskippers (genera Periophthalmus, Boleophthalmus, Periophthalmodon and Scartelaos). We confirmed the presence of gastric glands and have immunohistochemically localized gastric proton pump expression to these glands in Neogobius fluviatilis and Periophthalmus novemradiatus, Periophthalmus barbarus and Boleophthalmus boddarti.
