Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Vivien Wei"
- Vivien Wei's recent research focuses on interprofessional collaboration in healthcare, specifically evaluating the effectiveness of an intervention designed to reduce hospital admissions among nursing home residents, which suggests significant outcomes in clinical parameters over a 12-month period.
- Another key area of Wei's work involves cancer research, particularly the role of G-quadruplex DNA structures and the therapeutic potential of the stabilizer CX-5461, which shows selective toxicity in BRCA1/2 deficient tumors, highlighting a novel approach to target cancer cells resistant to conventional treatments.
- Wei has also explored the biochemical impacts of antipsychotic medications on oxidative stress, investigating the effects of haloperidol and clozapine on brain and liver tissues, providing insights into the underlying biological mechanisms of side effects associated with these drugs.
