Efficient generation of neural stem cell-like cells from adult human bone marrow stromal cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Clonogenic neural stem cells (NSCs) are self-renewing cells that maintain the capacity to differentiate into brain-specific cell types, and may also replace or repair diseased brain tissue. NSCs can be directly isolated from fetal or adult nervous tissue,

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography as a Follow Up Tool in Infectious Keratitis

open access: yesSVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Infectious keratitis, a severe corneal condition, requires early empiric therapy due to a 48-hour diagnosis delay that can worsen outcomes. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) improves management by offering detailed scans ...

Intraocular medulloepithelioma in an adult with unique AS-OCT imaging

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology - Case Reports
Intraocular medulloepithelioma is primarily a pediatric, potentially malignant tumor. Only a few cases in adults have been described in the literature so far. We present a rare case of intraocular medulloepithelioma of the ciliary body in a 56-year-old male, characterized by multiple free-floating cysts in the anterior chamber, documented for the first

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

A Chebychev propagator for inhomogeneous Schr\"odinger equations

open access: yes, 2009
We present a propagation scheme for time-dependent inhomogeneous Schr\"odinger equations which occur for example in optimal control theory or in reactive scattering calculations. A formal solution based on a polynomial expansion of the inhomogeneous term

Effect of Implementing a Dashboard With or Without a Best Practice Alert on HLA‐B*58:01 Testing Rates Among Allopurinol Users at VA Medical Centers

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The American College of Rheumatology recommends HLA‐B*58:01 allele testing before the initiation of allopurinol, specifically among Asian and African American/Black patients, due to their increased risk for severe hypersensitivity reactions. However, testing rates remain low at many health care facilities.
