A transcriptomic analysis of the effects of macrophage polarization and endotoxin tolerance on the response to Salmonella
Salmonella is an intracellular pathogen causing significant morbidity and mortality. Its ability to grow inside macrophages is important to virulence, and is dependent on the activation state of the macrophages. Classically activated M1 macrophages are non-permissive for Salmonella growth, while alternatively activated M2 macrophages are permissive for Salmonella growth. Here we showed that endotoxin-primed macrophages (MEP), such as those associated with sepsis, showed similar levels of...
Robotic versus conventional sternotomy mitral valve surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Current evidence on comparative outcomes of RMVS and CSMVS is limited with only low-quality studies currently available. This present meta-analysis suggests that RMVS may have lower mortality and shorter ICU and hospital LOS, however CSMVS may be associated with significantly shorter cross clamp and CPB times. Further analysis of high-quality studies with randomized data is required to verify these results.
Association of 7 million+ tweets featuring suicide-related content with daily calls to the Suicide Prevention Lifeline and with suicides, United States, 2016-2018
CONCLUSION: This is the first large-scale study to suggest that daily volume of specific suicide-prevention-related social media content on Twitter corresponds to higher daily levels of help-seeking behaviour and lower daily number of suicide deaths.
Therapeutic strategies for liver diseases based on redox control systems
In the liver, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are constantly released during cellular metabolic processes, and excess ROS production can cause redox stress. The redox stress is both beneficial for and harmful to the survival of cells since it modulates the cellular redox control system. The redox control system is a series of cellular responses that are responsible for maintaining a balanced oxidation-reduction status. Many cellular processes including growth, proliferation, and senescence are...
Embolization and Resection of Epidural Spinal Arteriovenous Malformations: Case Report
CONCLUSION: This report describes the use of a combination of endovascular and surgical approaches to achieve maximal benefit for 2 patients. These cases reinforce the value of a staged multimodal treatment approach in achieving good functional outcomes for patients with these rare and challenging entities.

Severe Polyethylene Glycol Allergy Considerations for Perioperative Management: A Case Report
Patients with severe polyethylene glycol (PEG) allergies face broad challenges, especially when presenting to the hospital for surgery, as PEG is used often as an excipient in medications and in medical supplies. Although rare, this allergy is increasingly reported and likely underdiagnosed. We present a patient with known past anaphylactic reaction to PEG and a detailed account of her perioperative course. More broadly, we provide recommendations and resources for the safe management of similar...
Virus spread on a scale-free network reproduces the Gompertz growth observed in isolated COVID-19 outbreaks
The counts of confirmed cases and deaths in isolated SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks follow the Gompertz growth function for locations of very different sizes. This lack of dependence on region size leads us to hypothesize that virus spread depends on the universal properties of the network of social interactions. We test this hypothesis by simulating the propagation of a virus on networks of different topologies or connectivities. Our main finding is that we can reproduce the Gompertz growth observed for...
