Guillain-Barr é syndrome in patients dying with COVID-19 in Italy: a retrospective study
CONCLUSIONS: Although the mechanism of GBS onset is still unclear in COVID-19, fatal cases may be more frequent than other virus-related GBS, so that strictly monitoring in high-risk patients could dramatically decrease the mortality of GBS.PMID:37712236 | DOI:10.4415/ANN_23_03_04

Fluoro-edenite non-neoplastic diseases in Biancavilla (Sicily, Italy): pleural plaques and/or pneumoconiosis?
CONCLUSIONS: Asbestosis-like features were substantiated in Biancavilla residents without known occupational exposure to asbestos. Further studies to estimate population respiratory health are required. Experimental studies on the fibrogenic potential of fluoro-edenite are needed.PMID:37712235 | DOI:10.4415/ANN_23_03_03

Analysis and prediction of liver volume change maps derived from computational tomography scans acquired pre- and post-radiation therapy
This study leverages the use of deep learning-based segmentation and biomechanical deformable image registration (DIR) to analyze and predict this relationship. Pre- and Post-EBRT imaging data were collected for 100 patients treated for HCC, CC or CRC with IMRT with prescription doses ranging from 50 to 100 Gy delivered in 10 to 28 fractions. For each patient, DIR between the portal and venous (PV) phase of a diagnostic CT scan acquired before RT planning, and a PV phase of a diagnostic CT scan acquired after the end of RT (on average 147±36 days) was performed to calculate Jacobian maps representing volume changes in the...

Phys Ther. 2023 Sep 15:pzad126. doi: 10.1093/ptj/pzad126. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTResearch agendas play an important role in directing scholarly inquiry in a field. The Research Agenda for Physical Therapy From the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) outlines research priorities that are vital to advancing physical therapist practice and the profession. The development of the research agenda included multiple iterative steps and feedback from stakeholders. A research agenda subgroup (n = 6) of the APTA Scientific Practice and Advisory Committee (SPAC), with APTA staff support, gathered information on existin...

From the Flight Deck to the Bedside: Core Aviation Concepts Applied to Acute Care Physical Therapist Practice and Education
Phys Ther. 2023 Sep 15:pzad125. doi: 10.1093/ptj/pzad125. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe health care industry has sought to reduce errors and patient harm by drawing upon human factors research developed largely in the aviation industry. However, literature that explicitly applies human factors concepts to physical therapist practice is scarce. Therefore, this clinical perspective highlights key concepts in aviation safety and training that should be considered for application to physical therapist education and practice in the acute care setting, including the law of primacy, pilot in command, crew resource management,...

Tumoral and peritumoral vascularization of brain tumours: a study comparing an intraoperative ultrasensitive Doppler and a preoperative first-pass perfusion MRI
CONCLUSION: There was a good correlation between a tumor FMBV obtained by a USD intraoperatively and rCCBV on a preoperative MRI validating the reliability of USD for intraoperative analyses of tumor microvascularization in gliomas.PMID:37714376 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2023.101493

Tyrosine glucosylation of collagen films exploiting Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)
Carbohydr Res. 2023 Sep 9;533:108938. doi: 10.1016/j.carres.2023.108938. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe development of human tissue models for regenerative medicine and animal-free drug screening requires glycosylated biomaterials such as collagen. An easy and fast biomaterial glycosylation method exploiting Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) phenol coupling reaction is proposed. The protocol is adaptable to any polymer functionalized with phenol residues or tyrosine containing proteins. As a model the tyrosine residues on collagen films were functionalized with salidroside, a natural β-glucoside with a phenol in the aglycon...

The Facile Synthesis of Eco-Friendly Zinc Magnesium Bimetal Nanoparticles and its Application in the Eradication of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae that Causes Leaf Blight Disease of Rice
Curr Microbiol. 2023 Sep 15;80(11):340. doi: 10.1007/s00284-023-03455-1.ABSTRACTIn this research work, we formulated and successfully assessed the antibacterial capability of zinc magnesium bimetal nanoparticles (ZnMgNPs) against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), the pathogenic microorganism responsible for causing the destructive leaf blight disease in rice. Successful preparation of ZnMgNPs were determined by UV-vis spectroscopy, EDX (Energy dispersive X-ray), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared) and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy). ZnMgNPs had antibacterial efficacy towards Xoo at MIC (minimum inhibitory concentratio...

The impact of leisure-time physical activity and occupational physical activity on sickness absence. A prospective study among people with physically demanding jobs
CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that LTPA and OPA are related to opposite SA outcomes. MVPA during leisure time and work interact in their effect on SA, whereas we found no interaction effect between LTPA and self-reported physically demanding tasks in determining SA.PMID:37713180 | DOI:10.5271/sjweh.4120
