Abstract

ST266 is the biological secretome of cultured Amnion-derived Multipotent Progenitor cells containing multiple growth factors and cytokines. While intranasally-administered ST266 improves the phenotype in experimental optic neuritis, specific ST266 components mediating these effects are not known. We compared the effects of ST266 with and without removal of large molecular weight proteins both in vitro and in the multiple sclerosis model experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in C57BL/6J mice. Mice were treated daily with intranasal vehicle, ST266 or lower molecular weight fraction of ST266. Retinal ganglion cells were counted in isolated retinas, and optic nerves were assessed for inflammation and demyelination. ST266 treatment significantly improved retinal ganglion cell survival and reduced optic nerve demyelination in EAE mice. The lower molecular weight ST266 fraction significantly improved optic nerve demyelination, but only showed a trend towards improved retinal ganglion cell survival. ST266 fractions below 50kDa increased Schwann cell proliferation in vitro, but were less effective than non-fractionated ST266. Demyelination attenuation was partially associated with the lower molecular weight ST266 fraction, but removal of higher molecular weight biomolecules from ST266 diminishes its neuroprotective effects, suggesting at least some high molecular weight proteins play a role in ST266-mediated neuroprotection.

Abstract

At the first Third World Filmmakers Meeting held in Algiers in 1973, participants resolved that the cinema they envisioned could conscientize audiences and continue Indigenous and African storytelling traditions. Today, there is a robust canon of Black diaspora cinema, which should be preserved, archived and analysed. Yet when coupled with filmmaking practice, it can become living history as a tool in the application of critical pedagogy. This article considers Black diaspora film and filmmaking practice as mechanisms for the radical transformation of education. It examines how oppositional cinematic representations can spark critical consciousness and how filmmaking practice can put emotional intelligence at the centre of learning.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: To describe the changes in ventilator management over time in patients with neurologic disease at ICU admission and to estimate factors associated with 28-day hospital mortality. DESIGN: Secondary analysis of three prospective, observational, multicenter studies. SETTING: Cohort studies conducted in 2004, 2010, and 2016. PATIENTS: Adult patients who received mechanical ventilation for more than 12 hours. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Among the 20,929 patients enrolled, we included 4,152 (20%) mechanically ventilated patients due to different neurologic diseases. Hemorrhagic stroke and brain trauma were the most common pathologies associated with the need for mechanical ventilation. Although volume-cycled ventilation remained the preferred ventilation mode, there was a significant (p < 0.001) increment in the use of pressure support ventilation. The proportion of patients receiving a protective lung ventilation strategy was increased over time: 47% in 2004, 63% in 2010, and 65% in 2016 (p < 0.001), as well as the duration of protective ventilation strategies: 406 days per 1,000 mechanical ventilation days in 2004, 523 days per 1,000 mechanical ventilation days in 2010, and 585 days per 1,000 mechanical ventilation days in 2016 (p < 0.001). There were no differences in the length of stay in the ICU, mortality in the ICU, and mortality in hospital from 2004 to 2016. Independent risk factors for 28-day mortality were age greater than 75 years, Simplified Acute Physiology Score II greater than 50, the occurrence of organ dysfunction within first 48 hours after brain injury, and specific neurologic diseases such as hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic stroke, and brain trauma. CONCLUSIONS: More lung-protective ventilatory strategies have been implemented over years in neurologic patients with no effect on pulmonary complications or on survival. We found several prognostic factors on mortality such as advanced age, the severity of the disease, organ dysfunctions, and the etiology of neurologic disease.

Abstract

More than 200 different mutations in peripherin-2 (PRPH2) are associated with multiple subtypes of inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), including retinitis pigmentosa and cone or macular diseases. Our goal was to understand how the poorly characterized PRPH2 mutation p.Pro210Arg (P210R) affects visual function and retinal structure as well as gain insight into the mechanism driving the clinical pathology.Eleven patients had clinical assessments including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), full field and multifocal electroretinography (ERG), static (spot size V) and kinetic perimetry (Octopus 900), and dark-adapted chromatic (DAC; Medmont; spot size V) perimetry. Images were acquired with the Optos ultra-wide field camera and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Molecular characteristics of the P210R mutant protein were evaluated in vitro.Patients with the P210R mutation had BCVA (Snellen) ranging from 20/15 to 20/80. Perimetry showed a reduction in sensitivity, while ERG findings suggested that cone function was more impaired than rod function. Scotomas were identified corresponding to atrophic retinal lesions. Imaging revealed heterogeneous outer retinal changes such as hyperfluorescent flecks, hypo-autofluorescence (AF) regions of atrophy, and thinning of the photoreceptor layer on SD-OCT. In vitro findings suggested that P210R-Prph2 retains the ability to interact with binding partner Rom1 but abnormally accumulates in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), suggesting the protein does not fold properly.Rod and cone sensitivities were decreased in subjects with the P210R mutation in PRPH2. There was scotomatous vision loss that occurred within the macula, likely due to atrophy that occurs after drusen have formed and have begun to resolve. This suggests that although rod and cone photoreceptors are dependent on PRPH2, preventing blindness in this specific subgroup of patients could involve therapeutics that impede the formation or lifecycle of drusen.

Abstract

ST266 is the biological secretome of cultured Amnion-derived Multipotent Progenitor cells containing multiple growth factors and cytokines. While intranasally-administered ST266 improves the phenotype in experimental optic neuritis, specific ST266 components mediating these effects are not known. We compared the effects of ST266 with and without removal of large molecular weight proteins both in vitro and in the multiple sclerosis model experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in C57BL/6J mice. Mice were treated daily with intranasal vehicle, ST266 or lower molecular weight fraction of ST266. Retinal ganglion cells were counted in isolated retinas, and optic nerves were assessed for inflammation and demyelination. ST266 treatment significantly improved retinal ganglion cell survival and reduced optic nerve demyelination in EAE mice. The lower molecular weight ST266 fraction significantly improved optic nerve demyelination, but only showed a trend towards improved retinal ganglion cell survival. ST266 fractions below 50kDa increased Schwann cell proliferation in vitro, but were less effective than non-fractionated ST266. Demyelination attenuation was partially associated with the lower molecular weight ST266 fraction, but removal of higher molecular weight biomolecules from ST266 diminishes its neuroprotective effects, suggesting at least some high molecular weight proteins play a role in ST266-mediated neuroprotection.

Abstract

Team communication is essential for the development of modern software systems. For distributed software development teams, such as those found in many open source projects, this communication usually takes place using electronic tools. Among these, modern chat platforms such as Gitter are becoming the de facto choice for many software projects due to their advanced features geared towards software development and effective team communication. Gitter channels contain numerous messages exchanged by developers regarding the state of the project, issues and features of the system, team logistics, etc. These messages can contain important information to researchers studying open source software systems, developers new to a particular project and trying to get familiar with the software, etc. Therefore, uncovering what developers are communicating about through Gitter is an essential first step towards successfully understanding and leveraging this information. We present a new dataset, called GitterCom, which aims to enable research in this direction and represents the largest manually labeled and curated dataset of Gitter developer messages. The dataset is comprised of 10,000 messages collected from 10 Gitter communities associated with the development of open source software. Each message was manually annotated and verified by two of the authors, capturing the purpose of the communication expressed by the message. While the dataset has not yet been used in any publication, we discuss how it can enable interesting research opportunities.

Abstract

Background Most studies on human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) have been performed on white Americans. Our study examined the incidence of HPV in an African American oropharyngeal SCC cohort and its survival. Methods African American patients with oropharyngeal SCC in a combined tumor registry were identified. HPV16 testing was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from DNA extracted from tumor blocks. The p16 staining was performed using standard immunohistochemistry. Results Forty-four patients were identified for analysis. Seventy-three percent of the tumors were HPV-positive. Only 39% of the patients who were HPV-positive were also p16-positive. Survival between all 3 tumor types, patients who tested HPV-positive/p16, HPV-positive/p16-positive, and HPV-negative/p16-negative was significantly different (p = .03). HPV/p16 status was significant on univariate and multivariate analysis. Conclusion HPV oropharyngeal SCC is strongly present in this African American cohort. Two thirds of the patients who were HPV-positive were p16-negative. Greater study is needed to explain the high p16 negativity among this HPV-positive oropharyngeal SCC African American cohort. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck, 2015

Abstract

Objective. To describe the implementation of a student research program and to provide outcomes from the initial 4 years’ experience. Design. Students conducted individual research projects in a 4-year longitudinal program (known as Pathway), with faculty member advising and peer mentoring. A prospective assessment compared perceptions of those who completed the Pathway program with those of students who did not. Descriptive statistics, t tests, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used. Assessment. The class of 2013 was the first to complete the Pathway program. In the Pathway assessment project, 59% (n=47) of students who responded reached self-set goals. Pathway students agreed that this research experience improved their ability to work/think independently, evaluate literature, and distinguish themselves from other students. Conclusion. The Pathway program helped students understand the research process and reach other self-set goals.
