Prognostic value of trans-thoracic echocardiography in patients with acute stroke and atrial fibrillation: findings from the RAF study.
Journal of neurology.J Neurol.2016 Feb;263(2):231-7. doi: 10.1007/s00415-015-7957-3. Epub 2015 Nov 14.
Anticoagulant therapy is recommended for the secondary prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). T he identification of patients at high risk for early recurrence, which are potential candidates to prompt anticoagulation, is crucial to justify the risk of bleeding associated wi

PURPOSE: To evaluate epidemiological and clinical data on patients with severe acquired brain injury (sABI) admitted to rehabilitation units in the first 6 years since the inception of a regional register (2005-2010) in the Emilia-Romagna region (Italy).METHOD: Retrospective multicentre study of a r

Three-dimensional multicellular spheroids (MCS) of human cells are important in cancer research. We investigated possible mechanisms of MCS formation of thyroid cells. Both, normal Nthy-ori 3-1 thyroid cells and the poorly differentiated follicular thyroid cancer cells FTC-133 formed MCS within 7 an

… A number of studies have shown the importance of the apical tip region of monocot coleoptiles and dicot seedlings for the perception of photo- and gravi-stimuli, as well as tropic curvature. …
… Here, using maize coleoptiles, we first showed that the asymmetric IAA flow after gravi-stimulus directly affects the TIR/AFBs-mediated auxin signaling pathway, which results in tropic curvature. …
… We also showed that IAA distribution rapidly changed at upper and lower side of the coleoptile at 0-10mm region within 20 minutes after gravi-stimulation, and IAA level at top region was temporary increased and then decreased. … Here, we examined details about the changes of IAA level and movement after gravi-stimulation. …
