Chronic intraocular inflammation such as chronic uveitis can lead to cystoid macular oedema, papilloedema, and vitreous opacities temporarily or permanently reducing visual acuity. Chronic uveitis has usually been treated by topical or systemic application of steroids. Topical treatment, however, often has not been sufficiently effective to suppress intraocular inflammation and to reduce cystoi...

Network software systems and groupware within organizations differ from other information technologies, requiring individuals to 'design' their own use. Users and groups can choose how to engage with these systems (Hassall, 1998), and use is dependent upon existing technological framing (Orlikowski, 1992). Groupware provides opportunities to study interaction between technological and organizat...

Dysregulation of lipid metabolism in individual tissues leads to systemic disruption of insulin action and glucose metabolism. Utilizing quantitative lipidomic analyses and mice deficient in adipose tissue lipid chaperones aP2 and mal1, we explored how metabolic alterations in adipose tissue are linked to whole-body metabolism through lipid signals. A robust increase in de novo lipogenesis rend...

response in cardiac index as displayed in Figure 4, oxygen delivery did improve consistent with the patient’s clinical improvement. Of course, with systemic-to-pulmonary communications, the determination of pulmonary vs systemic blood flow depends upon several factors in addition to pulmonary vascular resistance vs systemic vascular resistance: obligatory shunting, effects of streaming, as well...

This study investigates the efficacy of local and intravenous mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) administration to augment neuroregeneration in both a sciatic nerve cut-and-repair and rat hindlimb transplant model. Bone marrow-derived MSCs were harvested and purified from Brown-Norway (BN) rats. Sciatic nerve transections and repairs were performed in three groups of Lewis (LEW) rats: negative control...

The term ‘systemic innovation’ is increasing in use, but there no consensus on its meaning: five understandings of the can be identified, each based a different view what word ‘systemic’ should refer to. first understanding focuses technologies, where innovation focus synergistically integrated with other complementary innovations, going beyond boundaries single organization. Therefore, refers ...
