Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following solid-organ transplantation. However, the epidemiology of AKI and mortality risk of AKI among patients undergoing cardiac transplantation is not uniformly described. We conducted this study to assess the incidence of AKI and mortality risk of AKI in adult patients after cardiac transplantation. Methods: A systematic review of EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Databases was performed until June 2019 to identify studies evaluating ...

The Exercise Program in Cancer and Cognition (EPICC) Study is a randomized controlled trial designed to test the effects of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise on cognitive function in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer during the first six months of aromatase inhibitor therapy. It is estimated that up to 75% of survivors of breast cancer experience cognitive impairment related to disease and treatment. At present, there are no known interventions to improve or manage cognitive function ...

Acoustic phonetic methods are useful in examining some symptoms of schizophrenia; we used such methods to understand the underpinnings of aprosody. We hypothesized that, compared to controls and patients without clinically rated aprosody, patients with aprosody would exhibit reduced variability in: pitch (F0), jaw/mouth opening and tongue height (formant F1), tongue front/back position and/or lip rounding (formant F2), and intensity/loudness.

This is the first cross-language study of the effect of schizophrenia on speech as measured by analyzing phonetic parameters with sound spectrography. We hypothesized that reduced variability in pitch and formants would be correlated with negative symptom severity in two samples of patients with schizophrenia, one from Italy, and one from the United States. Audio recordings of spontaneous speech were available from 40 patients. From each speech sample, a file of F0 (pitch) and formant values (F1 and ...

Several studies suggest that adolescent marijuana use predicts earlier age at onset of schizophrenia, which is a crucial prognostic indicator. Yet, many investigations have not adequately established a clear temporal relationship between the use and onset. We enrolled 247 first-episode psychosis patients from six psychiatric units and collected data on lifetime marijuana/alcohol/tobacco use, and ages at onset of prodrome and psychosis in 210 of these patients. Cox regression (survival analysis) was ...

Early-course psychotic disorders have been extensively studied in terms of phenomenology, but little is known about the influence of personality traits on clinical features of first-episode psychosis. The aim of this study was to explore how the "big five" personality domains (neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness) are associated with treatment delay (duration of untreated psychosis, DUP), functioning, and positive and negative symptom severity. Data for these analyses ...

Objective: Two surveys were conducted on the crisis intervention team (CIT) model, a police-based program designed to improve responses to individuals with mental illnesses. Methods: Data were collected between July and September 2013 from 171 police chiefs and sheriffs (42 had implemented CIT in their agency), and 353 law enforcement officers (273 had CIT training) in Georgia. Results: Police chiefs and sheriffs reported barriers to implementing CIT, such as not having enough officers and insufficient ...

Longer duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) is associated with poorer early-course and long-term outcomes, and is a target of early detection and intervention efforts. Given the paucity of research on childhood and adolescent stressors (e.g., maltreatment and neighborhood disorder) as potential predictors of DUP, limited research on premorbid substance use as a determinant of DUP, and inconclusive findings on the association between DUP and neurocognition, we conducted three sets of analyses to address ...

Many in vitro disintegration procedures have been suggested, but no attempt appears to have been made to assess their physiological validity in a uantitative manner. In the present stud the U. S. P. XIV disintegration test was modified for application to sugar-coated taglets. Simulated gastric and alkaline juices and a form of rubbing action with a rubber disk were found to be essential. The validity of the modified procedure was evaluated by a comparison with measurements of the physiological availability ...

Abstract Hydrate formation and its attendant problems are well known in the oil and gas industry. The desire to reduce the costs and environmental impact of traditional hydrate inhibitors has led to a focus on the design, development and evaluation of novel and environmentally friendly low dosage hydrate inhibitors (LDHIs). In this study, two LDHIs, namely Luvicap ® EG and Gaffix ® VC‐713, were tested using tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a hydrate promoter and a ball‐stop rig. The ball stop‐time was used to ...

Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), an illness characterized by multiple personality states, has long been a controversial diagnosis within the psychiatric community. Demonstrating a neuroanatomical basis for the disorder may help to resolve the controversy. Current literature on the neuroanatomy associated with DID has focused on the hippocampus and amygdala and are inconclusive. This meta-analysis pools the results from n = 3 studies to compare the mean size of these two structures between DID ...

Objective Overweight and obesity [body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m 2 ] are associated with poorer prognosis among women with breast cancer, and weight gain is common during treatment. Symptoms of depression and anxiety are also highly prevalent in women with breast cancer and may be exacerbated by post-diagnosis weight gain. Altered brain function may underlie psychological distress. Thus, this secondary analysis examined the relationship between BMI, psychological health, and resting state functional ...

Cholic, desoxycholic, and dehydrocholic acids can be titrated visually in either benzene‐methanol or N,N‐dimethylformamide‐chloroform as solvents, thymol blue as the indicator and either potassium methoxide solution or alcoholic potassium hydroxide as the titrant. Evidence is quoted to indicate that dissolving potassium hydroxide in methanol leads to the formation of potassium methoxide which will behave in a manner similar to the potassium methoxide formed by reacting metallic potassium with methanol.

Dear Editors, Prenatal exposure to maternal smoking (PEMS) has been linked to diverse negative perinatal outcomes (Cnattingius, 2004) and far-reaching neurobehavioral consequences, including impaired cognition, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and conduct disorder (Cornelius and Day, 2009; Gaysina et al., 2013). Although one study did not demonstrate a link between PEMS and risk for schizophrenia (Baguelin-Pinaud et al., 2010), Stathopoulou et al. (2013) found that prenatal tobacco exposure ...

PURPOSE: The COVID-19 pandemic forced many face-to-face exercise programs for cancer survivors to shut down or transition to online delivery. Supervision from a qualified instructor and social support from other participants are integral components for successful exercise program adherence, but it is challenging to create opportunities for tangible social connection when delivering exercise programs asynchronously (i.e., online without real-time interaction). A group-based exercise program delivered ...

Background : Accelerometers are frequently used to measure free-living physical activity and sleep in cancer survivors. To obtain valid data, participants must adhere to wear-time guidelines; therefore, understanding survivor’s preference may be critical when selecting an accelerometer. This study compared cancer survivors’ reported discomfort and interference, and wear-time compliance between a wrist-worn accelerometer and a thigh-worn accelerometer. Methods : This was a secondary data analysis. Cancer ...

Objective Physical exercise may increase brain volume and cortical thickness in late adulthood. However, few studies have examined the possibility for exercise to influence brain morphology in women treated for breast cancer. We conducted a nested sub-study within a randomized clinical trial to examine whether 6 months of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer influences brain morphology. Methods We included twenty-eight postmenopausal women newly ...
