Update on prevention and treatment of sudden cardiac arrest
Sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of cardiovascular mortality, posing a substantial public health burden. The incidence and epidemiology of sudden death are a function of age, with primary arrhythmia syndromes and inherited cardiomyopathies representing the predominant causes in younger patients, while coronary artery disease being the leading

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

The feasibility of performing a randomised controlled trial of therapeutic hypothermia for neuroprotection after paediatric cardiac arrest in the UK [PDF]
Cardiac arrest in paediatric patients often results in death or survival with severe brain injury. Therapeutic hypothermia, lowering of core body temperature to 32 to 34⁰C may reduce injury to the brain in the period after circulation has been restored.

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells
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 ...

Blocking Variant Surface Glycoprotein synthesis in Trypanosoma brucei triggers a general arrest in translation initiation [PDF]
Background: The African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei is covered with a dense layer of Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG), which protects it from lysis by host complement via the alternative pathway in the mammalian bloodstream.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Cardiac arrest: Treatment is prevention?
The management of cardiac arrest has benefited from recent advances in cardiopulmonary resuscitation techniques. However, despite improvements, the incidence of sudden cardiac death is still high, with more than 4.1 deaths per 100,000 person-years in the United States, and continues to have very low survival rates at hospital discharge - 8% on average -
