Development and Analytical Validation of a Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Paper Lateral Flow Immunoassay for Detection of the Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase-L1 Traumatic Brain Injury Biomarker.

Paper lateral flow immunoassays combined with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology have gained increasing attention due to their high sensitivity characteristics resulting from the amplified SERS signals of the plasmon-enhanced optical probes. In contrast to conventional colorimetric lateral flow strips, SERS paper lateral flow strips (SERS-PLFSs) are currently not commercially available for widespread use. Analytical validation is the key step for commercialization.

Survival, Durable Tumor Remission, and Long-Term Safety in Patients With Advanced Melanoma Receiving Nivolumab.

Purpose: Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) is an inhibitory receptor expressed by activated T cells that downmodulates effector functions and limits the generation of immune memory. PD-1 blockade can mediate tumor regression in a substantial proportion of patients with melanoma, but it is not known whether this is associated with extended survival or maintenance of response after treatment is discontinued.

Patients And Methods: Patients with advanced melanoma (N = 107) enrolled between 2008 and 2012 received intravenous nivolumab in an outpatient setting every 2 weeks for up to 96 weeks and were observed for overall survival, long-term safety, and response duration after treatment discontinuation.

Usage of RePlay as a Take-Home System to Support High-Repetition Motor Rehabilitation After Neurological Injury.

Stroke is a leading cause of chronic motor disability. While physical rehabilitation can promote functional recovery, several barriers prevent patients from receiving optimal rehabilitative care. Easy access to at-home rehabilitative tools could increase patients' ability to participate in rehabilitative exercises, which may lead to improved outcomes.

2021 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations: Summary From the Basic Life Support; Advanced Life Support; Neonatal Life Support; Education, Implementation, and Teams; First Aid Task Forces; and the COVID-19 Working Group.

The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation initiated a continuous review of new, peer-reviewed published cardiopulmonary resuscitation science. This is the fifth annual summary of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science With Treatment Recommendations; a more comprehensive review was done in 2020. This latest summary addresses the most recently published resuscitation evidence reviewed by International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation task force science experts.
