Examining time-to-transport decisions in Emergency Medical Services
Published 2024“…As the time spent on scene increases (due to various reasons, among them: spending more time providing clinical treatment and health education because the patient decided not to go to the hospital, or the crew spending more time convincing the patient to go to the hospital by explaining the potential complications of their condition and the potential outcomes of a refusal to go to hospital), the probability of transporting the patient decreases. This trend suggests that extended time could adversely affect patient care if they eventually need to recall for an ambulance. …”

A novel inhibitor of STAT3 activation is efficacious against established central nervous system melanoma and inhibits regulatory T cells
Published 2008“…Long-term survival (>78 days) was observed in 80% of mice with established intracerebral syngeneic melanoma treated with 40 mg/kg of WP1066 in contrast to control mice who survived for a median of 15 days. Although WP1066 did not induce immunological memory or enhance humoral responses to EGFRvIII, this compound reduced the production of immunosuppressive cytokines and chemokines (TGF-β, RANTES, MCP-1, VEGF), markedly inhibited natural and inducible Treg proliferation, and significantly increased cytotoxic immune responses of T cells. …”
