Screening Effective Target Sites on mRNA: A Ribozyme Library Approach.

Methods Mol Biol. 2012;848:329-36

Authors: Unwalla HJ, Rossi JJ

Abstract
Hammerhead ribozymes have been extensively used as RNA-inactivating agents for therapy as well as forward genomics. A ribozyme can be designed so as to specifically pair with virtually any target RNA, and cleave the phosphodiester backbone at a specified location, thereby functionally inactivating the RNA. Two major factors that determine whether ribozymes will be effective for posttranscriptional gene ...

Effect of Magnetic Resonance Imaging on Breast Conservation Therapy versus Mastectomy: A Review of the Literature.

Int J Surg Oncol. 2011;2011:428653

Authors: Painter TJ, Dipasco PJ, Misra S, Avisar E

Abstract
The utilization of MRI in the workup of breast cancer has played a controversial role in the surgical treatment of this disease. With the higher resolution of breast tissue afforded, additional lesions are being identified that often warrant additional procedures, subsequently affecting the decision to proceed with breast conservation therapy ...



PT-SAFE: A Software Tool for Development and Annunciation of Medical Audible Alarms.

Anesth Analg. 2012 Feb 6;

Authors: Bennett CL, McNeer RR

Abstract
Background:Recent reports by The Joint Commission as well as the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation have indicated that medical audible alarm effectiveness needs to be improved. Several recent studies have explored various approaches to improving the audible alarms, motivating the authors to develop real-time software capable of comparing such alarms. We sought to devise software that would allow ...



Selection and management of hepatitis C virus-infected patients for the kidney transplant waiting list.

Contrib Nephrol. 2012;176:66-76

Authors: Roth D, Bloom R

Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been demonstrated to be present in a significant number of ESRD patients, and infection with this virus has been shown to have a detrimental impact on patient survival in both the dialysis and transplant patient populations. Studies have shown that 10-25% of pre-kidney transplant candidates have advanced liver injury with stage 3 or 4 disease ...

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To describe a modified open surgical technique for the resection of renal cell carcinoma with level I or II tumor thrombus.
METHOD: In our modified technique, the renal artery is ligated early and the tumor thrombus is secured ahead of kidney mobilization by either milking into the renal vein or with extirpation ...



Initial hematocrit in trauma: A paradigm shift?

J Trauma. 2012 Jan;72(1):54-60

Authors: Ryan ML, Thorson CM, Otero CA, Vu T, Schulman CI, Livingstone AS, Proctor KG

Abstract
BACKGROUND: : After severe trauma and hemorrhage, it is generally assumed that the rate of fluid shift from the interstitial space into the vasculature is relatively slow and that initial hematocrit (Hct) does not reflect estimated blood loss. This study challenges that idea and tests the hypothesis that initial Hct correlates with signs of shock and hemorrhage in trauma ...

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma presenting as Miller Fisher syndrome.

Muscle Nerve. 2012 Jan;45(1):138-43

Authors: Usmani N, Bhatia R, Ikpatt OF, Sharma KR

Abstract
We report a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who initially presented as Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) responsive to high-dose immunoglobulin treatment. Detailed investigations for the recurrence of neurological symptoms revealed DLBCL that was responsive to chemotherapy. DLBCL should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with MFS who have worsening of ...



Reducing the incidence and severity of acute graft-versus-host disease.

5-azacytidine reverses drug resistance in bladder cancer cells.

Anticancer Res. 2011 Nov;31(11):3757-66

Authors: Ramachandran K, Gordian E, Singal R

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Patients with metastatic and muscle-invasive bladder cancer are commonly treated with cisplatin. A significant proportion of patients develop disease progression after an initial response to chemotherapy. Presently there is no standard of care for such patients. We examined whether pretreatment with an epigenetic agent would result in reversal of drug resistance.

Protective effect of LASIK flap in penetrating keratoplasty following blunt trauma.

J Cataract Refract Surg. 2011 Dec;37(12):2211-3

Authors: Canto AP, Vaddavalli PK, Yoo SH, Culbertson WW, Belmont SC

Abstract
Penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) often results in large and unpredictable refractive errors following suture removal in the postoperative period. Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is an effective means of correcting these errors. However, LASIK following PKP is believed to further weaken an already weak graft-host junction and may predispose ...



Office and ambulatory blood pressure-lowering effects of combination valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide vs. hydrochlorothiazide-based therapy in obese, hypertensive patients.

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich). 2011 Oct;13(10):731-8

Authors: Raij L, Egan BM, Zappe DH, Purkayastha D, Samuel R, Sowers JR

Abstract
The authors evaluated the blood pressure (BP)-lowering effects of combination valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) vs. amlodipine/HCTZ in a 16-week, double-blind, randomized, forced-titration study and ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) substudy involving ...



Prolonged lymphocyte depletion by single-dose rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin and alemtuzumab in kidney transplantation.

Authors: Sageshima J, Ciancio G, Guerra G, Gaynor JJ, Cova D, Zarak A, Chen L, Mattiazzi A, Kupin W, Roth D, Hanson L, Livingstone AS, Ruiz P, Burke GW

Abstract
Although antibody induction has gained in popularity, two agents are rarely combined. We retrospectively analyzed peripheral lymphocyte phenotypes of renal transplant recipients who received induction therapy with a different ...



Physiological evidence that D-aspartate activates a current distinct from ionotropic glutamate receptor currents in Aplysia californica neurons.

J Neurophysiol. 2011 Oct;106(4):1629-36

Authors: Carlson SL, Fieber LA

Abstract
D-Aspartate (D-Asp) activates an excitatory current in neurons of Aplysia californica. Although D-Asp is presumed to activate a subset of L-glutamate (L-Glu) channels, the identities of putative d-Asp receptors and channels are unclear. Whole cell voltage- and current-clamp studies using primary cultures of Aplysia buccal S ...
