Low-Energy Delicate Pulsed Light Therapy for Sensitive Skin: A Retrospective Study.

Background: Sensitive skin (SS) is a multifactorial syndrome that affects about half of the world's population. However, there is no standardized treatment protocol. Photovoltaic technology has been widely used in recent years for the treatment of sensitive skin, but the efficacy of low-energy delicate pulsed light (DPL) in the treatment of sensitive skin is unknown.

EZH2 modulates mRNA splicing and exerts part of its oncogenic function through repression of splicing factors in CML.

The polycomb protein EZH2 is up-regulated in Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) and associated with transcriptional reprogramming. Here we tested whether EZH2 might also act as a modulator of the mRNA splicing landscape to elicit its oncogenic function in CML. We treated CML cell lines with EZH2 inhibitors and detected differential splicing of several hundreds of events, potentially caused by the transcriptional regulation of splicing factors.

Experiences and Challenges for Critical Care Nurses in Work Related to Medical Device Alarms: A Qualitative Study.

Critical care nurses, who are at the frontline of recognizing and answering alarms, face various challenges while undertaking this task. The purpose of this qualitative study is to gain more insight into the experiences of critical care nurses working with medical equipment alarms. A qualitative, descriptive design was used to explore this area.

Perseverance of Optimal Realignment is Associated With Improved Cost-utility in Adult Cervical Deformity Surgery.

Background: Early-term complications may not predict long-term success after adult cervical deformity (ACD) correction.

Objective: Evaluate whether optimal realignment results in similar rates of perioperative complications but achieves longer-term cost-utility.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Variables associated with cognitive function: an exposome-wide and mendelian randomization analysis.

Background: Evidence indicates that cognitive function is influenced by potential environmental factors. We aimed to determine the variables influencing cognitive function.

Methods: Our study included 164,463 non-demented adults (89,644 [54.
