Article Synopsis
  • Cell lines, like HepG2, do not perfectly mimic the actual disease conditions of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and may not represent all the relevant biological processes or gene expressions.
  • The study aimed to perform a transcriptomic comparison between HepG2, HCC, and primary hepatocytes (PH) to identify useful genes for research purposes.
  • Ultimately, the researchers identified 397 genes suitable for HCC research and 421 for PH, refining their findings to 40 and 21 genes, respectively, emphasizing those linked to DNA repair and protein degradation.

We present the case of a 37-year-old secundigravida, referred to our clinic at 26 weeks of a pregnancy complicated by fetal dilatative restrictive cardiomyopathy and hydrops, placentomegaly, new-onset dyspnea, and maternal calf edema.

This knowledge translation study qualitatively explores strategies that facilitated hospital staff engagement in online educational games for dementia education. Interdisciplinary staff (n = 2010) in 10 hospitals played online games to learn about basic communication techniques. We identified five facilitating strategies, E-GAME: Easy access to learning, Give both extrinsic and intrinsic rewards, Apply implementation science theory, Multiple tools, and Evaluation.
