Highlights
Three dimensional (3D) printed anatomical models are used alongside traditional cadaveric prosections to enhance medical education
These drugs lack specificity to members of the PHD family and the specific isoforms of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) they target. It would be beneficial in the development of new therapies for hypoxic diseases such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) to determine whether specific inhibition of members of the PHD family produce a more beneficial or disadvantageous response
Many tools with explicit criteria are described in the literature for assessing Potentially Inappropriate Prescribing (PIP) in the general geriatric population, but few have been developed to examine prescribing in long-term care (LTC)
Summary
Three dimensional (3D) printed anatomical models are used alongside traditional cadaveric prosections to enhance medical education. Conclusion: This meta-analysis shows that use of an evidence-based, surgical care wound bundle in patients undergoing colorectal surgery significantly reduces the risk of SSI and length of hospital stay. This study aims to characterise demographic and pathologic risk factors associated with increased TWG on initial referral to the specialist diabetic foot clinic (SDFC) at Cork University Hospital (CUH). Crude and adjusted logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess for associations between ASD and Maternal IBS, and to control for relevant confounders, including maternal age, education level, ethnicity, BMI, smoking history, depression, depression treatment and household income. Patients with medically refractory epilepsy may benefit from treatment with a miR-21 antagomir which could block miR-21 from binding to GLUL mRNA, increasing expression of glutamine synthetase, preventing excessive epileptogenic glutamatergic activity
