A cytogenetic study performed on 6 human renal cell carcinomas after short-term culture on extracellular matrix with serum-free medium showed aneuploidy without structural changes in 2 tumors and a rearrangement of the short arm of chromosome 3 in 4 tumors, including deletions and a translocation involving the 3p14 and 3p21 bands. Chromosomal in situ hybridization with a c-raf 1 probe demonstrated that in 2 renal cancers with del3(p14 or 21) the cellular oncogene had shifted from 3p25 to 3p14 as a result of an interstitial deletion.

Developing and testing the feasibility of a theory-based brief counseling intervention to promote physical activity in breast cancer survivors enrolled in the PAC-WOMAN trial.

Pilot Feasibility Stud

Background: Despite the benefits of physical activity (PA), cancer survivors report engagement barriers, and existing interventions often lack comprehensive solutions. Theory-based interventions using evidence-based behavior change techniques (BCTs) have been shown to be effective in promoting PA for breast cancer survivors, although their feasibility and acceptability lack evidence. The PAC-WOMAN trial is a three-arm randomized controlled trial aimed at promoting short- and long-term PA and improving the quality of life of breast cancer survivors.

The importance of gravity for human motor control is well established, but it remains unclear how the central nervous system accounts for gravitational changes to perform complex motor skills. We tested the hypothesis that microgravity and hypergravity have distinct effects on the neuromuscular control of reaching movements compared to normogravity. To test the influence of gravity levels on sensorimotor planning and control, participants (n = 9) had to reach toward visual targets during parabolic flights.

Background: Hand grip strength is a critical indicator of upper extremity function, especially important in healthcare professions. Effective upper extremity function relies on proximal stability from the scapula and distal mobility from hand actions. This study aimed to examine the relationship between scapular dyskinesia and hand grip strength in healthcare students with smartphone addiction.

Unlabelled: Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) is relatively rare, and much less as an initial presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Primary UEDVT should be considered in individuals with unilateral arm swelling where the brachial, axillary, and subclavian veins are frequently involved. SLE is a chronic autoimmune disease that predominantly affects women of childbearing age and of African descent.
