‘Plenty of Disabled People Care’: Revealing Reciprocity and Interdependence in Disabled People’s Everyday Caregiving Practices

Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research
Care has historically been framed as something done to disabled people. Disability rights scholars have critiqued the loss of control and dependency associated with care; meanwhile, feminist care ethics has emphasised a relational conception of humans as

PARK7 DJ-1 protects against degeneration of nigral dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson’s disease rat model

Neurobiology of Disease, 2006
DJ-1 has recently been shown to be responsible for onset of familial Parkinson’s disease (PD), PARK7. DJ-1 has been shown to play roles in transcriptional regulation and anti-oxidative stress, and loss of its function is thought to trigger onset of PD ...

21st century glaucoma care [PDF]

Eye, 2018
Glaucoma care has evolved dramatically over the past generation, with changes that have incorporated new technology and improved understanding of the disease process. A major need is to construct a useful definition of glaucomatous optic neuropathy that can be used to compare data across clinical research studies.

Epidemiology of Atrial Fibrillation in the 21st Century

Circulation Research, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Accompanying the aging of populations worldwide, and increased survival with chronic diseases, the incidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) are rising, justifying the term global epidemic.

Rheocasting versus Die Casting: An Insight into the Low‐Cycle Fatigue Behavior of AlSi7Mg0.6

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study compares rheocast lightweight components with high‐pressure die cast materials regarding microstructure and fatigue behavior. Rheocast process offers higher efficiency due to lower casting temperatures. Despite some microstructural differences, both processes show similar strengths (yield strength 125 MPa, tensile strength 240 MPa).

Synergistic Fluorine and Cyanide Co‐Modification to Reinforce Photoinduced Excitons Formation and Transfer for Efficient CO2 Photoreduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An advanced F‐doped and ─CN group co‐modified FCCN is developed. Due to the synergistic effects of co‐modification in promoting photogenerated exciton generation, enhancing charge kinetics, expanding active interfacial areas, and optimizing CO2 interfacial reactions, the FCCN photocatalyst demonstrates excellent catalytic performance and high ...

Bio‐Inspired Molecular Events in Poly(Ionic Liquids)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Originating from dipolar and polar inter‐ and intra‐chain interactions of the building blocks, the topologies and morphologies of poly(ionic liquids) (PIL) govern their nano‐ and micro‐processibility. Modulating the interactions of cation‐anion pairs with aliphatic dipolar components enables the tunability of properties, facilitated by “bottom‐up ...

Clinical Opportunities in Combining Immunotherapy with Radiation Therapy

Frontiers in Oncology, 2012
Preclinical work in murine models suggests that local radiotherapy plus intratumoral syngeneic DC injection can mediate immunologic tumor eradication. Radiotherapy affects the immune response to cancer, besides the direct impact on the tumor cells, and ...
