Current treatments for chronic pain have limited benefit. We describe a resilience intervention for individuals with chronic pain which is based on a model of viewing chronic pain as dysregulated homeostasis and which seeks to restore homeostatic self-regulation using strategies exemplified by survivors of extreme environments. The intervention is…[Read more]

Intracellular localization of used derivatives in A549 cells was confirmed by confocal microscopy. Derivatives 12d and 12e showed significant antiproliferative activity in A549 cancer cells without a significant effect on normal CCD-18Co cells. The inhibition of hAChE/human recombinant BChE (hBChE), the antiproliferative activity on cancer cells,…[Read more]

In treating occupational hand injuries under workers’ compensation, the 2 most important goals are to maximize patient function, ideally to preinjury levels, and permit a timely return to work (RTW). The purpose of this study was to determine factors affecting total case length, that is, the total time from injury until primary closure of a…[Read more]

Solar ultraviolet radiation is one of the most common occupational carcinogens in Canada and is responsible for approximately 5,556 non-melanoma skin cancers per year. A large part of these cases are preventable by reducing solar ultraviolet radiation exposure. Cryptotanshinone research buy In this study, investigators estimated the potential…[Read more]

Tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin-like and EGF-like domains 2 (Tie2) activation in Schlemm’s canal (SC) endothelium is required for the maintenance of IOP, making the angiopoietin/Tie2 pathway a target for new and potentially disease modifying glaucoma therapies. The goal of the present study was to examine the effects of a Tie2 activator,…[Read more]

Large-scale prospective case series of tapentadol abuse or dependence in India is not available. Hence, we aimed to study the prevalence and profile of tapentadol users in a treatment-seeking population.

The study had prospective and retrospective arms. We collected 8-month prospective data by face-to-face interviews (

= 70) and 8-year…[Read more]

Aggressive behaviors are widespread among animals and are critical in the competition for resources. The physiological mechanisms underlying aggression have mostly been examined in breeding males, in which gonadal androgens, acting in part through their aromatization to estrogens, have a key role. There are two alternative models that contribute…[Read more]
