Super Nutrient’s Liver Surprise
I was one of the first doctors to talk about the incredible benefits of the super-nutrient pyrroloquinoline quinone, or PQQ for short. I was also one of the first doctors to recommend it to patients. Now I recommend this essential nutrient and powerful antioxidant to almost everyone who comes to see me at my wellness clinic. Researchers have only just recently begun to understand the many important roles of PQQ on the body’s cellular processes. Not only does it possess extraordinary energy-giving qualities and have the power to ease nerve pain and battle Alzheimer’s, it has the potential to become the world’s stronge...

The Emergence of Non-communicable Disease in Indonesia.
Authors: Purnamasari D Abstract Based on data from the Indonesian Ministry of Health Information Center, the estimated population of Indonesia in 2016 was approximately 258,704,986 people, consisted of 129,988,690 men and 128,716,296 women. This number of Indonesian population represents young population since the proportion of population aged 0-14 years is more than that aged >14 years. Meanwhile, the proportion of population aged 50 years and above is significantly reduced, which is thought to be due to high mortality rate in the middle-aged population. The mortality rate in  Indonesia is dominated by non-com...

Gastrointestinal complications after cardiac surgery: 10‐year experience of a single Australian centre
ConclusionsGI complications after cardiac surgery remain an uncommon but dreadful complication associated with high mortality. Our findings should prompt a high degree of clinical vigilance in order to make an early diagnosis especially in high risk patients. Further studies aiming to identify independent predictors for GI complications after cardiac surgery are warranted.

Australia faces increased risk of disease from climate change, reports find
A number of recent studies have shown a clear connection between a warming planet and increased health risksAustralia has been warned of the rising threat of dengue fever and heat stroke deaths in the wake of a study that found climate change is aiding the spread of infectious diseases around the world. The report, part-funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in Science, found that climate change is already abetting diseases in wildlife and agriculture, with humans at heightened risk from dengue fever, malaria and cholera. Wealthy countries will do much better at predicting and tackling new disease threa...

Genetic Implication of a Novel Thiamine Transporter in Human Hypertension
ConclusionsNovel strategies were coupled to position a new hypertension-susceptibility locus, uncovering a previously unsuspected thiamine transporter whose genetic variants predicted several disturbances in cardiac and autonomic function. The results have implications for the pathogenesis and treatment of systemic hypertension.

CDC National Health Report: Leading Causes of Morbidity and Mortality and Associated Behavioral Risk and Protective Factors-United States, 2005-2013.
This report reviews population health in the United States and provides an assessment of recent progress in meeting high-priority health objectives. The health status indicators described in this report were selected because of their direct relation to the leading causes of death and other substantial sources of morbidity and mortality and should be the focus of prevention efforts. REPORTING PERIOD COVERED: Data are reported starting in 2005 (or the earliest available year since 2005) through the current data year. Because data sources and specific indicators vary regarding when data are available, the most recent yea...

Nosocomial infections after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: time course and causative pathogens
ConclusionNosocomial infections after subarachnoid hemorrhage are common and mostly occur in the first week after ictus. Future studies should investigate if general hygienic measures, infection awareness, minimizing the duration of mechanical ventilation and use of catheters/drains, or prophylactic antibiotics reduce infections and improve functional outcome.

Disproportionate effects of dementia on hospital discharge disposition in common hospitalization categories
CONCLUSIONSDementia proportions in many hospitalization categories have increased. The variable effect of dementia on home discharge suggests that dementia has a differential influence on hospital discharge disposition depending on the DRG. These findings have implications for healthcare allocation and long‐term care planning. Journal of Hospital Medicine 2015. © 2015 Society of Hospital Medicine

Cloning, Prokaryotic Expression and Functional Analysis of Squalene Synthase (SQS) in Magnolia officinalis
In this study, a full-length cDNA of squalene synthase was cloned from M. officinalis and designated MoSQS (GenBank accession no.KT223496). The gene contains a 1240-bp open reading frame and it encodes a protein with 409 amino acids. Bioinformatic and phylogenetic analysis clearly suggested that MoSQS shared high similarity with squalene synthases among other plants. Prokaryotic expression showed that a transmembrane domain-deleted (385–409 aa) MoSQS mutant (MoSQSΔTM) could be expressed in its soluble form in Escherichia coli Transetta (DE3). GC-MS analysis showed that squalene was detected in an in vitro reaction mixtu...

Evaluation of laser bacterial anti‐fouling of transparent nanocrystalline yttria‐stabilized‐zirconia cranial implant
ConclusionsOur results show that E. coli biofilm formation across the thickness of the nc‐YSZ implant can be disrupted using NIR laser treatment. The results of this in vitro study suggest that using nc‐YSZ as a cranial implant in vivo may also allow for locally selective, non‐invasive, chronic treatment of bacterial layers (fouling) that might form under cranial implants, without causing adverse thermal damage to the underlying host tissue when appropriate laser parameters are used.

Engineering, expression and purification of a chimeric fibrin-specific streptokinase
Publication date: Available online 3 August 2016 Source:Protein Expression and Purification Author(s): Mohammad Naser Taheri, Abbas Behzad-Behbahani, Gholamreza Rafiei Dehbidi, Saeede Salehi, Sedigheh Sharifzadeh Streptokinase is a valuable fibrinolytic agent used to cope with myocardial infarction and brain stroke. Despite its high efficiency in dissolving blood clots, streptokinase (SK) has no specificity in binding fibrin, causing some problems such as internal bleedings following its administration. To make streptokinase fibrin specific and limit the fibrinolytic process to the clot location, we engineered a chimeric ...
