Protriptyline is the pharmacologic agent most commonly used to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); however, its anticholinergic side effects make it intolerable to many patients. Because serotonin may be a central respiratory stimulant and because…

The objective of the study was to understand how physical and structural properties of food translate into sensory perception. A range of gels with different structures were developed by combined mechanisms of ion-induced micro-phase separation of…

Unlike other mammals, odontocetes and mysticetes have highly derived craniofacial bones. A growth process referred to as "telescoping" is partly responsible for this morphology. Here, we explore how changes in facial morphology during fetal growth…

Metolazone-induced acute pancreatitis and hypercalcemia are described in a 58-year-old woman with severe congestive cardiac failure. Her symptoms and laboratory abnormalities rapidly resolved upon discontinuation of metolazone. Both clinical and…

The structure-function relationships of the 43-amino-acid membrane-binding domain of cytochrome b(5) have been examined in two mutant forms of the protein. In one mutant, two tryptophans in the membrane-binding domain, at positions 108 and 112, were…

Single stranded microRNAs and their antagomirs are unstable and polyanionic, which impedes efficient cellular uptake and reduces half-life. Therefore, effective delivery systems with low toxicity for microRNAs are urgently needed for the success of…

We report a kinetic study of the reaction between superoxide and an important intracellular form of vitamin B-12, cob(II)alamin. Superoxide is implicated in the pathophysiology of many inflammatory diseases, whereas vitamin B,2 derivatives are often…

Objective: To determine the value of paramedic judgment in determining the need for trauma team activation (TTA) for pediatric blunt trauma patients. Methods: A prospective, observational study was conducted at the ED of Children's Hospital Medical…
