(2002-02-21)
It has previously been determined that erythroid cells of mice are capable of expressing such cytokines as interleukin (IL) 1 alpha and beta, IL-4, IL-6, interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating ...
Molecular and phenotypic characterisation of paediatric glioma cell lines as models for preclinical drug development.
(2009)
BACKGROUND: Although paediatric high grade gliomas resemble their adult counterparts in many ways, there appear to be distinct clinical and biological differences. One important factor hampering the development of new ...
Immunization with a lentiviral vector stimulates both CD4 and CD8 T cell responses to an ovalbumin transgene.
(2006-02)
Lentiviral vectors encoding antigens are promising vaccine candidates because they transduce dendritic cells (DC) in vivo and prime CTL responses. Here we examine their stimulation of antigen-specific CD4(+) T cells, ...
Quantitative analysis of human immunoregulatory cytokines by electrochemiluminescence method.
(2003-04-01)
Quantitative analysis of human immunoregulatory cytokines in physiological media and cell cultures plays an important role in fundamental and clinical research. Here we describe the quantification of interleukin (IL)-2, ...
Fitness in contemporary dance: a systematic review.
(2009-07)
It has been suggested that dancers are less fit compared to other athletes. However, the majority of studies make their arguments based on data deriving mainly from ballet. Therefore, the aim of the current review was to ...
Professional-patient communication in the treatment of mental illness: a review.
(2007)
The quality of the professional-patient relationship in the treatment of mental illness predicts patient outcome. Hence, we conducted a review of recorded professional-patient communication to identify existing research, ...
Assessing the promise of user involvement in health service development: ethnographic study.
(2008-02-09)
OBJECTIVES: To understand how the policy of user involvement is interpreted in health service organisations and to identify factors that influence how user involvement is put into practice. DESIGN: Ethnographic study using ...
The Declaration of Istanbul on Organ Trafficking and Transplant Tourism.
(2008-09)
Organ commercialism, which targets vulnerable populations (such as illiterate and impoverished persons, undocumented immigrants, prisoners, and political or economic refugees) in resource-poor countries, has been condemned ...
Clinical effectiveness of a rehabilitation program integrating exercise, self-management, and active coping strategies for chronic knee pain: a cluster randomized trial.
(2007-10-15)
OBJECTIVE: Chronic knee pain is a major cause of disability and health care expenditure, but there are concerns about efficacy, cost, and side effects associated with usual primary care. Conservative rehabilitation may ...
Long term probability of detection of HIV-1 drug resistance after starting antiretroviral therapy in routine clinical practice.
(2005-03-25)
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the long term risk of development of HIV-1 drug resistance for patients starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) with three or four drug regimens in routine clinical practice. METHODS: We ...
