Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to create a standardized scale for evaluating the need for specialized rehabilitation in trauma patients, addressing the issue of improper referrals to medical institutions.
  • The scale was developed through a systematic review of literature and collaboration among experts in trauma care, resulting in a discharge-planning checklist validated using data from past trauma patients.
  • Validation results showed that the checklist is effective in predicting appropriate rehabilitation facility discharges, offering a practical tool to enhance trauma survivors' recovery by ensuring access to suitable rehab services.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates the current state of multidisciplinary treatment for severe trauma patients in Korea, highlighting the historical focus on reducing mortality rather than comprehensive care.
  • An online questionnaire revealed that only a small percentage of hospitals had multidisciplinary meetings, and there were significant delays in patient transfers to rehabilitation facilities due to financial constraints and other collaboration challenges.
  • Despite recognizing the importance of multidisciplinary care, trauma specialists emphasized the need for an improved system to better support the recovery and reintegration of trauma patients into society.

Certain plant cells synthesize secondary cell walls besides primary cell walls. This biosynthesis is strictly controlled by an array of transcription factors. Here, we show that SND1, a regulator of cell-wall biosynthesis, regulates abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis to ensure optimal plant growth.

Sucrose is a crucial compound for the growth and development of plants, and the regulation of multiple genes depends on the amount of soluble sugars present. Sucrose acts as a signaling molecule that regulates a proton-sucrose symporter, with its sensor being the sucrose transporter. Flavonoid and anthocyanin biosynthesis are regulated by sucrose, and sucrose signaling can affect flavonoid and anthocyanin accumulation.
