Pro‐Inflammatory c‐Met+ CD4 T Cells in Multiple Sclerosis
Objective Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) binds exclusively the c‐Met surface receptor, and the HGF/c‐Met axis regulates T cell function in autoimmune diseases. We analyzed c‐Met expression on human CD4 T cells in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) versus non‐inflammatory neurological disease (NIND), to ...

Inter-arm difference in systolic blood pressure in different ethnic groups and relationship to the "white coat effect" : a cross sectional study [PDF]
Background Inter-arm differences (IAD) ≥10mmHg in systolic blood pressure (BP) are associated with greater incidence of cardiovascular disease. The effect of ethnicity and the white coat effect (WCE) on significant systolic inter-arm differences ...

B cells and systemic sclerosis interstitial lung disease
Interstitial lung disease is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc‐ILD) with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to FDA‐approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of interstitial lung diseases of other systemic autoimmune ...

ABSTRACT In this study, novel thiosemicarbazone derivative molecules (5a–j) were synthesized. The characterization of the synthesized molecules was carried out using 1H–, 13C–NMR, FT–IR, and Q–TOF spectroscopic techniques. Then, the inhibitory effect of these compounds was examined for human carbonic anhydrase I and II (hCA I, and II) and ...

Metabolically exaggerated cardiac reactions to acute psychological stress: The effects of resting blood pressure status and possible underlying mechanisms [PDF]
The study aimed to: confirm that acute stress elicits metabolically exaggerated increases in cardiac activity; test whether individuals with elevated resting blood pressure show more exaggerated cardiac reactions to stress than those who are clearly ...

Prescribing competence: The pros and cons of different methods for assessment
Evaluating a medical graduate’s competence in rational prescribing is challenging. With the aim to guide and inspire teachers, this narrative review explores different methods that can be used to assess prescribing competence. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and thus a mix of different assessment methods is needed throughout the ...

Aims Adherence to disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) has been associated with improved treatment outcomes, but how adherence is reported ranges between studies. We therefore aimed to determine how nonadherence to DMARDs used to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been measured and to report the nonadherence rate with each measure identified.
