Model for Predicting In-Hospital Mortality of Physical Trauma Patients Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques: Nationwide Population-Based Study in Korea.

Background: Physical trauma-related mortality places a heavy burden on society. Estimating the mortality risk in physical trauma patients is crucial to enhance treatment efficiency and reduce this burden. The most popular and accurate model is the Injury Severity Score (ISS), which is based on the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS), an anatomical injury severity scoring system.

A Rare Case of Cardiac Neurofibroma in a Patient with Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Radiologic Findings.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a relatively common inherited disorder characterized by the formation of neurofibromas, pigmentary abnormalities of the skin, Lisch nodules of the iris, and skeletal abnormalities. Multiple cutaneous neurofibromas are benign nerve sheath tumors and the main manifestation of NF1. Cardiac neurofibroma associated with NF1 is very rare, and few cases have been reported in the literature.

Proteasomal ATPase-associated factor 1 negatively regulates proteasome activity by interacting with proteasomal ATPases.

The 26S proteasome, composed of the 20S core and the 19S regulatory complex, plays a central role in ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis by catalyzing degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins. In a search for proteins involved in regulation of the proteasome, we affinity purified the 19S regulatory complex from HeLa cells and identified a novel protein of 43 kDa in size as an associated protein. Immunoprecipitation analyses suggested that this protein specifically interacted with the proteasomal ATPases.
