Published: June 2007

Worm et al. (Research Articles, 3 November 2006, p. 787) investigated the importance of biodiversity to marine ecosystem services across temporal and spatial scales. In projecting the extent of future fisheries collapse, we argue that the authors inappropriately extrapolated beyond their available observations and used data on marine reserves and fishery closures that are not representative of global fisheries.

Background: A previously published study at Norrland University Hospital, Umeå, Sweden, found that in 29.5% of patients with urinary bladder cancer (UBC) who underwent cystectomy, incorrect cT-stage (clinical T-stage) was registered in the Swedish National Register of Urinary Bladder Cancer (SNRUBC). Tumor in bladder diverticulum (TIBD) and tumor-associated hydronephrosis (TAH) were common causes for misclassification.

Objectives: Grounded in the Health Empowerment Model, which posits that health literacy and patient empowerment are intertwined yet distinct constructs, this study investigates how the interplay of these factors influences attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in members of online communities for mental health (OCMHs). This while acknowledging the multidimensionality of patient empowerment, encompassing meaningfulness, competence, self-determination, and impact.

Design And Methods: A cluster analysis of data gathered from 269 members of Italian-speaking OCMHs on Facebook has been performed.

IgG sialylation puts lung inflammation to REST.

Immunity

January 2025

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, The University of Melbourne, Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity, Melbourne, VIC 3000, Australia. Electronic address:

The mechanisms underpinning susceptibility to influenza virus infection, resulting in life-threatening disease, are not well understood. In this issue of Immunity, Chakraborty et al. demonstrate that sialylated IgG suppresses NF-κB-driven inflammatory responses in the lungs by inducing repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor (REST) to prevent excessive inflammation without impacting viral replication.
