Understanding Contributors of Resilience in Youth With Childhood‐Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Through a Socioecological Lens: A Mixed‐Methods Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to identify themes contributing to resilience in childhood‐onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE), distinguish between profiles of resilience, and examine how they relate to underlying themes and patient characteristics. Methods We conducted a mixed‐methods study of 21 patients with cSLE aged 11 to 19 years at a Canadian ...

Ageism in Rheumatology: the Healthcare Professional's Perspective

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Ageism (age‐based stereotypes, prejudice, or discrimination) is prevalent and linked to prolonged disability and reduced lifespan in older adults. Little is known about ageism within rheumatology. This study explores the healthcare professional's (HCP) perception of the care of older adults and how ageist attitudes or perspectives may impact ...

Screening for Social Determinants of Health in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Point‐of‐Care Feasibility Study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Social determinants of health (SDoH) can impact outcomes but are not routinely screened for in US outpatient rheumatology clinics. This study determined the feasibility of routine point‐of‐care SDoH screening among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and associated barriers and facilitators at the physician, care team, and ...

Activation of SIRT1 Reduces Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells Fibrosis in Hypoxia Through SIRT1‐FoxO1‐FoxO3‐Autophagy Pathway

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Hypoxia promotes the epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells via the SIRT1‐FoxO1‐FoxO3‐autophagy pathway, thereby resulting in the fibrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Activation of SIRT1 or induction of autophagy inhibits this process, alleviating hypoxia‐induced fibrosis.

Towards automated identification of changes in laboratory measurement of renal function: implications for longitudinal research and observing trends in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
Introduction: Kidney function is reported using estimates of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, eGFR values are recorded without reference to the creatinine (SCr) assays used to derive them, and newer assays were introduced at different time points across laboratories in UK. These changes may cause systematic bias in eGFR reported in routinely

The Regulation of Trace Metal Elements in Cancer Ferroptosis

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
The induction of ferroptosis inhibits tumor growth, enhances anticancer efficacy, and overcomes drug resistance. Recent evidence shows nonferrous metal elements play a role in ferroptosis. This review focuses on how trace metals regulate ferroptosis processes like iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense.

Shared features of endothelial dysfunction between sepsis and its preceding risk factors (aging and chronic disease) [PDF]

, 2018
Acute vascular endothelial dysfunction is a central event in the pathogenesis of sepsis,increasing vascular permeability, promoting activation of the coagulation cascade, tissue edema and compromising perfusion of vital organs. Aging and chronic diseases(hypertension,dyslipidaemia,diabetes mellitus,chronic kidney disease,cardiovascular disease ...
