Evaluation of the carbon monoxide levels in staff of a general hospital

Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção, 2016
Backgrounds and Objective: Exposure to carbon monoxide (CO) can be harmful to human health and the first effects of intoxication may go unnoticed. Our objective was to evaluate the functional capacity and respiratory muscle strength of staff of a general

USP7 inhibits FOXO1 activity in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells enhancing cell survival

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
CLL cells rely on BCR‐mediated signalling for survival and proliferation in part through suppression of FOXO1. FOXO1 activity is regulated by a plethora of post‐translational modifications including phosphorylation and ubiquitination. We demonstrated that dual inhibition of BCR signalling and the deubiquitinase USP7 activates FOXO1, modulating its ...

Women in engineering, science and technology in sub-Saharan Africa : cultural attitudes, challenges, and gaps affecting clinical engineering and medical devices maintenance practices [PDF]

Purpose: From previous studies, we had observed that the number of biomedical engineers and technicians (BMETs) skilled in the maintenance of medical devices (MDs) were limited in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and that a likely parallelism existed between ...

Customized Handmade Pulmonary Valved Conduit Reconstruction for Children and Adult Patients Using Meta-Learning Based Intelligent Model

IEEE Access, 2018
Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation is an improved technique that is used to treat narrowed pulmonary valves or leaky pulmonary valves in patients with congenital heart disease. This technique represents a promising strategy to reduce surgical risk

Tumour‐proximal deep serum proteomics identifies biomarkers associated with ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
New biomarkers are needed for early ovarian cancer detection. Ovarian (tumour‐proximal) and peripheral vein serum from healthy women and patients with benign or malignant tumours underwent nanoparticle‐enriched deep proteomics. Ovarian serum yielded more protein identifications and revealed tumour‐reflective signatures.

Handmade Trileaflet Valve Design and Validation for Pulmonary Valved Conduit Reconstruction Using Taguchi Method and Cascade Correlation Machine Learning Model

IEEE Access, 2018
Pulmonary valve diseases in children and adults include different degrees of stenosis, regurgitation, or congenital defects. Valve repair or replacement surgery is used to treat valvular dysfunction and to improve regurgitations flow for pulmonary valve ...

The impact of leukocyte‐associated RNA retention on platelet RNA‐based cancer detection

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Platelets carry RNA signals that may help detect cancer, but platelet samples can also retain RNA from white blood cells. We found that this retained white blood cell signal did not significantly affect machine learning cancer classification, suggesting that the cancer‐related RNA signal in platelets is largely independent of leukocyte‐associated RNA ...

Versatile vector tools for efficient protein screening across multiple expression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A unified vector toolkit enables rapid protein expression screening across E. coli, insect, and mammalian cells. A single primer pair amplifies the target gene, which is inserted into any vector via a standardized interface. This streamlined workflow eliminates repeated cloning steps, accelerating the identification of optimal expression conditions for
