d percutaneous pinning can be treated with early active motion postoperatively.

To report the clinical and radiographic results of arthrodesis of relatively small-sized distal interphalangeal joints (DIPJs) using only K-wire fixation.

Between January 2000 and December 2018 28 arthrodesis in 21 patients (9 males and 12 females with an…Read more

Bovine trypanosomosis transmitted by tsetse flies is a major constraint to cattle health and productivity in all sub-Saharan countries, including Uganda. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of bovine trypanosomosis and identify its associated risk factors and the species of trypanosomes associated with the…Read more

The expression of anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies decreases the likelihood of transplantation for patients by restricting the available donor pool. New protocols that reduce antibody expression in these patients and allow for renal transplantation are needed. Bortezomib, as used in the patient reported here, represents a promising new…Read more

There was limited geographic distribution of the studies, with a paucity of research in several counties and states where HIV incidence/prevalence is a concern. Neighborhood influences on HIV vulnerability are the consequence of centuries-old laws, policies and practices that maintain racialized inequities (e.g., racial residential segregation,…Read more

phrenia, thus representing a highly specific therapeutic target.

Several clinical studies of vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGF/VEGFR) therapy as a second-line treatment for biliary tract cancer (BTC) have shown modest efficacy. In this study, surufatinib was evaluated as a second-line VEGFR…Read more

Young children, like adults, understand that human agents can flexibly choose different actions in different contexts, and they evaluate these agents based on such choices. However, little is known about children’s tendencies to attribute the capacity to choose to robots, despite increased contact with robotic agents. In this paper, we compare 5-…Read more

We also revealed the involvement of the proinflammatory NLRP3+ macrophages in periodontitis. We further showed the increased cell-cell communication between macrophage and T/B cells in the inflammatory periodontal tissues. Our data generated an intriguing catalog of cell types and interaction networks in the human gingiva and identified new…Read more

Immunohistochemistry studies showed RS1 labeling of the retina in all vector-treated eyes. At the day 90 sacrifice, there was a decrease in the severity of splitting/disorganization of the inner nuclear layer of the retina in high-dose vector-treated eyes. Biodistribution studies demonstrated vector DNA in vector-injected eyes but not in any…Read more

The N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein attachment protein receptor YKT6 is a key protein that controls the release of exosomes, was reported to play important roles in multiple cancers. However, the role of YKT6 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still unknown.

Here we first used bioinformatics tools to analyze the

mRNA…Read more

The current study aims to further delineate the associations between the synaptotagmin-like 3 (SYTL3) and solute carrier family 22 member 3 (SLC22A3) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their haplotypes and gene-gene (G × G)/environment (G × E) interactions on the risk of hyperlipidemia (HLP) in the Maonan and Han ethnic groups. Genotype d…Read more

These results suggest maternal modeling is a promotive factor, supporting Latinx youths’ academic self-efficacy which, in turn, related to math/science grades. Additionally, a negative direct relation between maternal modeling and science grades suggests maternal modeling generally support academic self-efficacy, but not necessarily science…Read more
