ly associated with the development of decompensated cirrhosis and the composite outcome in multivariable analyses. Measuring liver stiffness should be considered after anti-viral treatment because it predicts adverse outcomes even beyond routinely available clinical predictors.

To evaluate the effects of a home-based disability prevention program on life-space and falls efficacy among low-income older adults.

Single-blind two-arm randomized controlled trial.

Participants' homes.

Participants were low-income cognitively intact older adults (≥65 years old) with restricted daily activities. Our analytic sample for life-space (n = 194) and falls efficacy (n = 233) varied as the life-space measure was introduced 4 months after the trial began.

Up to six 1-hour home visits with an occupational therapist; up to four 1-hour home visits with a registered nurse; and up to $1,300 worth of home repairs, modifications, and assistive devices with a handyman, during a course of 4 months.

Life-space was measured by the Homebound Mobility Assessment; falls efficacy was measured using the 10-item Tinetti Falls Efficacy Scale at baseline and 5 months.

Participants were on average 75 years old, predominantly Black (86%) and female (85%-86%). Compared with participants in the control groupisability prevention intervention. Findings suggest that this intervention should be translated into different settings to promote independent aging.

To identify the experiences of nursing in high secure forensic mental health settings that may affect staff recruitment and retention.

Recruitment and retention of Registered Nurses is a vital international concern in the field of mental health. The high secure forensic setting presents unique challenges for the nurse. Studies of nurse's experiences in this setting have not previously been reviewed in the context of workforce sustainability pressures.

An integrative review (Whittemore and Knapfl, 2005).

A systematic search of data sources MEDLINE (PubMed), PsycINFO, EMBASE, CINAHL, International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts (ASSIA), Social Services Abstracts, ProQuest Social Sciences Premium collection (IBSS, PAIS, and Sociological Abstracts), and Web of Science from inception to December 2019.

Data extraction, quality appraisal, and convergent qualitative synthesis.

Fifteen papers were selected for inclusion in the review, describing 13 studies.nal nursing policymakers and workforce leads in mental health service provider organizations, seeking to promote forensic nursing as a career option and retain nursing staff.

Alopecia areata is a common non-scarring hair loss disorder. It has been generally recognised as a loss of immune privilege leading to an autoimmune attack upon anagen hair follicles. Survivin is one of the apoptosis inhibitor proteins, responsible for apoptosis suppression and cell cycle regulation. Survivin expression has been demonstrated in the matrix and outer root sheath keratinocytes of anagen hair follicles. Survivin overexpression was shown in several autoimmune diseases, and it was postulated that it contributes to the survival of self-reactive T and B cells. P53 is a tumour suppressor gene that was suggested to repress autoimmunity via induction of T regulatory cells. Survivin gene expression is transcriptionally suppressed by wild-type p53.

The aim of this study was to investigate survivin and p53 genes expression in alopecia areata patients.

The mRNA tissue expression of survivin and p53 was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in lesional and non-lesional punch scalp biopsies of 25 alopecia areata patients and 25 healthy subjects.

The study showed higher mRNA expression of survivin in lesional biopsies compared to non-lesional (P<0.001) and control biopsies (P=0.001). In non-lesional biopsies, the expression was significantly lower than in control biopsies (P<0.001). The expression of p53 was lower in both lesional and non-lesional biopsies relative to control biopsies. However, the difference was only significant in non-lesional biopsies (P=0.017).

Our results suggested that survivin and p53 genes expression was altered in patients with alopecia areata.

Trisomy of the short arm of chromosome 17 is a rare genomic disorder. The clinical features of complete trisomy 17p syndrome have been described. Most cases of this syndrome have been found in infants and children, but only a few cases were found by ultrasound in the prenatal period.

We report a case of complete trisomy 17p syndrome, which was inherited from paternal balanced translocation t(15;17)(q11.2;q11.2). A pregnant woman underwent an ultrasound examination at 24weeks of gestation. Amniotic fluid was collected by amniocentesis. click here Cytogenetic and single nucleotide polymorphism array analyses were performed. We further reviewed the relationship between duplication regions and the clinical phenotype.

Ultrasonographic evaluation showed intrauterine growth retardation and a right choroid plexus cyst, but the gallbladder was not observed. The fetal karyotype was 46,XX,der(17)t(15;17)(q11.2;q11.2)pat. The father's karyotype was 46,XY,t(15;17)(q11.2;q11.2). The single nucleotide polymorphism array results showed arr[GRCh37] 17p13.3q11.1(525-25309337)×3, which indicated a 25.309-Mb duplication.

Complete trisomy 17p syndrome shows severe malformations. Intrauterine growth retardation is the most typical manifestation of this syndrome as shown by ultrasonography in the second trimester of pregnancy. The genotype-phenotype relationships of complete trisomy 17p syndrome are not completely consistent. To further determine these relationships, additional cases are necessary to provide more information from ultrasonographic findings during pregnancy.
