Article Synopsis
- The scoping review aimed to explore how person-centred care is applied in podiatry, especially for patients with long-term conditions and multimorbidity, given that current evidence on its effectiveness across all healthcare areas is limited.
- The research involved a comprehensive analysis of various databases, ultimately narrowing down to 18 primary research articles that focus on person-centred care interventions in podiatry.
- Key findings revealed that most interventions focused on self-management activities by patients and carers, but none addressed the podiatrist's role as an active participant in implementing person-centred care.
Murine dendritic cells, when pulsed with heat-killed and used to immunise naïve mice, have previously been shown to induce protective immunity . We have now demonstrated the priming of naïve human T cells against heat-killed , by co-culture with syngeneic pulsed dendritic cells. Additionally, we have enriched the DC fraction such that a study of the differential response induced by pulsed DCs of either myeloid or plasmacytoid lineage in syngeneic human T cells was achievable.

The application of self-management strategies can reduce the risk of individuals developing foot complications. The type, range and nature of the literature focusing on interventions that support patients with diabetic foot self-management is unknown.

Aim: To identify missed opportunities to detect IBD-associated CRC at our hospital METHODS: We undertook root-cause analyses to identify patients with missed opportunities to diagnose IBD-associated CRC.
