The article represents methodic approaches that enable quantitative evaluation of worker's health risk, forecast of changes in health state. Models application proved that integral risk of health disorders in workers exposed to occupational factors becomes unacceptable by the age of 45 years, without exposure to the factors - by 54 years. At work under existing levels of exposure to occupational factors, cardiovascular risk increases with length of service, and by 5 years of service, number of additional occupational cases in a studied group of workers approaches 11 per year. Solving effectively problems of health risk evaluation, evolution models consider specific conditions of workplaces contamination and describe influence of variable factors within work conditions on risk of various health disorders in dependence on length of service and exposure duration. Methodic approaches to health risk evaluation, based on evolution models of hazardous effects development under exposure to working environment factors, enable to follow dynamics of these effects development on background of natural ageing and to forecast health state of human and population under multi-factorial, multi-exposure load.

Optimizing the life of vascular access during follow-up.

J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino)

February 2025

Department of Vascular Surgery, ASST Settelaghi Universitary Teaching Hospital, University of Insubria, Varese, Italy.

Optimizing the longevity of vascular access in hemodialysis patients remains a critical aspect of patient care, given the significant role of arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) and arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) in enabling effective dialysis. Vascular access complications, such as stenosis, thrombosis, and cannulation-related damage, continue to challenge both the functionality and the sustainability of these access points. Recent advancements underscore the importance of a robust follow-up strategy, integrating clinical evaluations with diagnostic tools like color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) and emerging interventional approaches such as drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty.

Background: Poor acute postoperative pain control, coupled with the use of intravenous medications with a limited and unsafety efficacy spectrum, has led to new therapeutic alternative explorations to reduce adverse events while increasing its analgesic efficacy. There cannabinoids have been proposed as a useful control agent in post-surgical pain. Nevertheless, to date, there is no solid evidence to evaluate them.

Introduction: Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have shown promise in reducing amyloid precursor protein (APP) levels in neurons, but their effects in astrocytes, key contributors to neurodegenerative diseases, remain unclear. This study evaluates the efficacy of APP ASOs in astrocytes derived from an individual with Down syndrome (DS), a population at high risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Methods: Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from a healthy individual and an individual with DS were differentiated into astrocytes.

Purpose: To determine the accuracy of nursing diagnoses at hospital admission and discharge for patients with heart failure (HF).

Methods: This comparative study examined the documentation in 155 medical records of patients with an admitting diagnosis of HF during August 2018 and July 2019. An audit tool was used to record the diagnoses made by nurses during routine care at the time of admission and discharge.

Introduction: Plasma phosphorylated tau (p-tau) biomarkers have improved Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but data from diverse Asian populations are limited. This study evaluated plasma p-tau217 and p-tau181 levels in Korean and Taiwanese populations.

Methods: All participants (n = 270) underwent amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) and blood tests.
