This report presents a cross-sectional survey conducted among faculty members of public health schools in the United States. The survey aims to determine the availability and current state of student-centered programs and courses centered around social innovation and entrepreneurship within schools of public health.

Molecular and cellular regulation of psoriatic inflammation.

This review highlights the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying psoriatic inflammation with an emphasis on recent developments which may impact on treatment approaches for this chronic disease. We consider both the skin and the musculoskeletal compartment and how different manifestations of psoriatic inflammation are linked. This review brings a focus to the importance of inflammatory feedback loops that exist in the initiation and chronic stages of the condition, and how close interaction between the epidermis and both innate and adaptive immune compartments drives psoriatic inflammation.

Tiered Approach to Resilience Assessment.

Regulatory agencies have long adopted a three-tier framework for risk assessment. We build on this structure to propose a tiered approach for resilience assessment that can be integrated into the existing regulatory processes. Comprehensive approaches to assessing resilience at appropriate and operational scales, reconciling analytical complexity as needed with stakeholder needs and resources available, and ultimately creating actionable recommendations to enhance resilience are still lacking.

Ten- to twelve-year follow-up of the furlong hydroxyapatite-coated femoral stem and threaded acetabular cup in patients younger than 65 years.

We reviewed 82 patients who had 92 primary Furlong uncemented hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated total hip replacements inserted between 1988 and 1992. All patients had the Furlong HA-coated stem and screw in acetabular cup with a 28-mm alumina oxide ceramic modular head. The mean age at the time of primary total hip arthroplasty was 54 years (range, 31-67 years).
