Immunoprofile of childhood diabetes by Meritxell Espino-Guarch (15430868)

“…When transcriptomic data was interrogated, an imbalance between ITGA4/ ITGB1 was observed in all groups where CD49d showed increased expression. Associated with these findings, anti-inflammatory Treg cytokines including IL-10 were decreased in T2D patients and elevated plasma levels of IL-17, which contributes to the insulin resistance and inflammation were observed.…”

yuDetecting the percent of peripheral blood mononuclear cells displaying p-STAT-3 in malignant glioma patient by Abou-Ghazal, Mohamed K.

“…We hypothesized that the number of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) displaying pSTAT-3 would be increased in glioma patients, which would correlate with the extent of tumorexpressed p-STAT-3, and that higher p-STAT-3 levels in peripheral blood would correlate with a higher fraction of immune-suppressive regulatory T cells (Tregs). …”

Anti-xa guided enoxaparin thromboprophylaxis is associated with less thromboembolism than fixed dose dalteparin in trauma patients admitted to intensive care by Ahmad Kloub (16855149)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">After protocol implementation (post-P), 305 patients were compared to 350 pre-protocol patients (pre-P). Anti-Xa levels were measured in 83% of post-P and none in the pre-P. 40% had low levels of anti-Xa, suggesting inadequate prophylaxis, and enoxaparin doses were accordingly increased. 51% attained the desired anti-Xa levels, 9% had higher levels, and LMWH doses were subsequently reduced. …”
