Co-Designing a Patient-Facing Version of a Mental Healthcare Pathway for People Receiving Dialysis

A Community Advisory Committee comprised of nine members with lived experience of kidney failure, identified the need for a patient-facing version of a mental healthcare pathway for people receiving dialysis in Alberta, Canada.

A vision system for patient positioning in radiation therapy [PDF]

, 2003
This thesis outlines a new approach to position a patient on the treatment table for all the radiotherapy treatment sessions. Positioning is done by comparing the patient's contour from the diagnostic CT data to that from the Vision system.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Upper trunk flexion versus whole trunk elevation in semi-Fowler’s position: Effects on ventilation and heart rate responses

Biomedical Human Kinetics
The semi-Fowler’s position is widely used to support respiratory function and reduce cardiovascular stress. Despite the known cardiovascular benefits of upper trunk flexion in Fowler’s position, its effects in the semi-Fowler’s position remain ...

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

Enhanced TOA-based Indoor-Positioning Algorithm for Mobile LTE Cellular Systems

, 2011
This work proposes an effective time delay estimation procedure for performance improvements of positioning techniques in LTE cellular systems. We exploit a fast parabolic interpolation running on three estimated samples in the neighborhood of the coarse
