Hippocampal and reproductive aging in female rats- emerging rejuvenation strategies
Aging is associated with a progressive increase in the incidence of neurodegenerative diseases, both in laboratory animals and humans. In rats, aging is accompanied by degenerative and/or atrophic processes in the cholinergic system of the forebrain, as well as morphological changes which parallel a reduction in spatial learning capacity.
Managing acute jaw trauma in the emergency and urgent care clinics
Chronic pain conditions constitute the primary reason for seeking healthcare, the development of related disability and addiction, and the highest driver of healthcare costs. Chronic temporomandibular, jaw and orofacial pain after acute jaw sprain/strain can be prevented if prompt and appropriate treatment in an emergency or urgent care clinic is provided using a jaw sprain/strain clinical protocol immediately after onset to begin the healing and recovery process.
Comparison of T1 FLAIR BLADE with and without parallel imaging against T1 turbo spin echo in the MR imaging of lumbar spine in the sagittal plane
Spinal cord and nerves are best visualized by MRI, which is able to show structural and functional anomalies of the spine. The primary objective of this study is to identify advantages or disadvantages of the T1-weighted fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence with BLADE technique (T1W-FLAIR BLADE), with and without parallel imaging when compared with T1 Turbo Spin Echo (T1 TSE) sequence when performing MRI examination of the lumbar spine in a sagittal view. L-spine examinations with T1W-FLAIR BLADE (with and without parallel imaging) and T1 TSE were acquired on 44 patients using a 1.5T scanner. These sequences were assessed by two radiologists a) quantitatively by comparing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and relative contrast (ReCon) measurements and b) qualitatively based on different features of the images such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) nulling.
Journal of Radiation Research and Imaging: Welcome letter
It is a great honor to be a part of the editorial board of Journal of Radiation Research and Imaging (JRRI) which has been designed with the intention of serving worldwide scientific researchers and healthcare professionals with the latest advances and developments in the field of radiation. I feel privileged to play a role in creating a scientific space online for budding analysts and radiation imaging enthusiasts to not just avail new information but also to comprehensively understand and extensively indulge in this whole new experience.
Involvement of TGFβ signaling pathway in oxidative stress and diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness in the U.S. However, not much is known of underlying molecular mechanism and how oxidative stress contributes to its development. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of TGFβ signaling pathway on the effect of oxidative stress on VEGF secretion and viability of retinal cells. VEGF is the hallmark that exacerbates DR progression in prolonged diabetes. Some major concerns that have arisen are the underlying effects of antioxidants in elevating VEGF secretion in diabetes.
