Increased specificity of the "GFAP/UCH-L1" mTBI rule-out test by age dependent cut-offs.

Objectives: Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) remains challenging to diagnose effectively in the emergency department. Abbott has developed the "GFAP/UCH-L1" mTBI test, to guide the clinical decision to perform a computed tomography (CT) head scan by ruling out the presence of mTBI. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of the "GFAP/UCH-L1" mTBI test in a Greek cohort and established age-dependent cut-offs.

Isolated Lower Limb Vasculitis Following SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Case Report.

Vasculitis is an autoimmune disease defined by inflammation within blood vessels, typically manifesting systemically with multi-organ complications and clinical features. Isolated vasculitis itself, however, is extremely rare and not characteristically based on the pathophysiology of the condition. Whilst there have been cases of isolated vasculitis in large-medium vessels (e.

Exploring the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of a real-time cardiac telerehabilitation and tele coaching programme using wearable devices in people with a recent myocardial infarction.

Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) constitutes the recommended nonpharmacological approach for cardiac patients with cardiovascular disease such as people following a recent (i.e., < 4 week) myocardial infarction (MI).

Nanobubbles in Ultrapure Water Can Self-Propel.

Nanobubbles are sub- micron-sized gas entities that find applications in a wide range of scientific fields. Typically, they are thought to diffuse according to Brownian motion. We report the existence of self-propelled motion of oxygen bulk nanobubbles in ultrapure water at body temperature.
