A class of nonlinear ship stability analysis: Stochastic dynamics with time-delayed control in crosswind and wave conditions.

The impact of ocean waves and crosswinds on ships has long been a focal point of research for many scholars. This paper proposes a stochastic ship rolling model influenced by crosswinds, ocean waves, and time delays. The safe operating region for ship navigation is presented through the phase space of the system.

Delayed infected hematoma in retrosternal area following total thyroidectomy: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Postoperative neck hematoma (PNH), a rare complication following thyroidectomy, occurs in only 1.1-3.15% of cases and can lead to life-threatening outcomes.

Diazoxide Post-conditioning Activates the HIF-1/HRE Pathway to Induce Myocardial Protection in Hypoxic/Reoxygenated Cardiomyocytes.

Previous studies have shown that diazoxide can protect against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). The intranuclear hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1)/hypoxia-response element (HRE) pathway has been shown to withstand cellular damage caused by MIRI. It remains unclear whether diazoxide post-conditioning is correlated with the HIF-1/HRE pathway in protective effect on cardiomyocytes.

Long non-coding RNA expression in silicosis and MRAK050699 function in epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

Silicosis is a lung fibrotic disease caused by chronic silica exposure. Aberrations in long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression are associated with fibrotic diseases, but the role of lncRNAs in silicosis pathogenesis remains unclear. Here, we investigated the expression of lncRNAs during silicosis and the role of MRAK050699 in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Primary endobronchial paraganglioma with lymph node metastasis: a case report.

A paraganglioma is an extra-adrenal tumor of the paraganglia often found in association with sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. A primary pulmonary paraganglioma generally presents as multiple small tumors or a solitary mass; however, endobronchial involvement is extremely rare. A 49-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of a chronic cough, intermittent dyspnea, and chest pain.

Mechanism of Emulsified Isoflurane Postconditioning-Induced Activation of the Nrf2-Antioxidant Response Element Signaling Pathway During Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion: The Relationship With Reactive Oxygen Species.

Emulsified isoflurane (EI) has been shown to alleviate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. However, previous reports have not been focused on the underlying mechanism. We used models of IR injury in Langendorff-isolated rat hearts to determine the relationship between the mechanism underlying EI postconditioning (EIP)-induced activation of the nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-antioxidant response element signaling pathway during myocardial IR, and its relationship with reactive oxygen species.

Sarcoidosis of the medulla oblongata causing intractable hiccoughs and numbness of extremities: A case report.

Rationale: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder characterized by noncaseating granulomas. The nervous system is involved in 5 to 16% of the patients. However, neurosarcoidosis in the medulla oblongata presenting as hiccough is remarkably rare.

Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis in adults: review of cases reported in the latest 15 years.

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is a rare disorder of unknown etiology which can cause diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. IPH is found primarily in children. In adults, however, it is extremely rare.

Efficacy and significance of various scores for pneumonia severity in the management of patients with community-acquired pneumonia in China.

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains one of the leading causes of death from infectious diseases around the world. Most severe CAP patients are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), and receive intense treatment. The present study aimed to evaluate the role of the pneumonia severity index (PSI), CURB-65, and sepsis score in the management of hospitalized CAP patients and explore the effect of ICU treatment on prognosis of severe cases.

A case report of systemic lupus erythematosus combined with Castleman's disease and literature review.

Although lymph node enlargement is common in active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), lymph node examination is frequently ignored in the diagnosis of SLE. Clinical presentation and abnormal laboratory findings are often sufficient for SLE diagnosis, not to mention that the specific histological finding of lymph node necrosis in SLE is rarely seen, and the follicular hyperplasia is usually considered as nonspecific. However, since the late 1990s, a few cases of SLE lymphadenopathy have been reported exhibiting a Castleman's disease (CD) morphology, which was discovered in lymph node biopsies.

Bacteremia due to Rhodococcus equi: a case report and review of the literature.

Rhodococcus equi, previously known as Corynebacterium equi, is one of the most important causes of zoonotic infections in grazing animals. Increased cases of human infection with R. equi have been reported, especially in immunocompromised patients, within recent years.

Regulation of telomerase activity in Jurkat T cells by transcription factors Sp1 and Sp3.

Objective: To investigate the role of transcription factors Sp1 and Sp3 in the regulation of telomerase activity and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) in Jurkat T cells.

Methods: By way of lipofectamine, Sp1 and Sp3 expression vectors were transferred into Jurkat T cells in which the protein expression levels of Sp1 and Sp3 were examined by Western blotting. Telomerase PCR-ELISA was used to assess the telomerase activity, and telomerase-mediated DNA- ladders were analyzed by silver staining and hTERT mRNA level determined by reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR).
