Evaluation of Interleukin-21, 23 and 27 mRNA Expression and Protein Level in Liver Transplant Patients
Cytokines have prominent roles in activating of different T cells and shifting the immune response, in this study the role of three cytokines (IL-21, IL-23 and IL-27) is investigated in the liver transplant rejection.Three EDTA-treated blood samples were collected from each liver transplanted patient in 1st, 4th and 7th day of post-transplantation.
Computer and Experimental Modelling of Blood Flow through the Mitral Valve of the Heart
This paper reports the first steps in determining the effects of fluid flow on the performance of the mitral valve of the heart that is relevant to surgical repair of the valve.In this Protein Gel paper, blood flow in idealised two-dimensional models of the mitral valve was studied using a numerical fluid-structure interaction (FSI) and experimenta
Constructing a systems psychodynamic wellness model
Orientation: The researchers constructed a Systems Psychodynamic Wellness Model (SPWM) by merging theory and concepts from systems psychodynamics and positive psychology.They then kids books refined the model for application in organisations during a Listening Post (LP) that comprised experienced subject experts.Research purpose: The purpose of the
Management of Recurrent Retroperitoneal Sarcoma
Recurrence after resection of retroperitoneal sarcoma is common and varies by histological subtype.Pattern of recurrence is similarly affected by histology (e.g., well-differentiated liposarcoma is more likely to recur locoregionally, whereas leiomyosarcoma is more Ride Ons likely to develop distant metastases).Radiotherapy may provide effective lo
