Article Synopsis
- Heart Failure (HF) is a prevalent and costly chronic condition with high rates of hospitalization and a need for effective disease management, particularly through self-care interventions for outpatients.
- This study aims to compare a structured nurse-led support intervention for chronic HF patients to usual medical care, focusing on self-care behaviors and rehospitalization rates.
- The trial will involve 40 facilities and 210 adult participants diagnosed with chronic HF, assessing the effectiveness of structured nursing support through regular follow-ups on improving self-care and reducing hospital readmissions.
In animal species that have the capability of regenerating tissues and limbs, cell proliferation is enhanced after wound healing and is essential for the reconstruction of injured tissue. Although the ability to induce cell proliferation is a common feature of such species, the molecular mechanisms that regulate the transition from wound healing to regenerative cell proliferation remain unclear. Here, we show that upon injury, InhibinβA and JunB cooperatively function for this transition during Xenopus tadpole tail regeneration.

Amphibians such as Xenopus tropicalis exhibit a remarkable capacity for tissue regeneration after traumatic injury. Although transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) receptor signaling is known to be essential for tissue regeneration in fish and amphibians, the role of TGF-β ligands in this process is not well understood. Here, we show that inhibition of TGF-β1 function prevents tail regeneration in Xenopus tropicalis tadpoles.
