Physiotherapy is part of the overall care in an interdisciplinary intensive care unit.Patients black rose globe on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) were previously deemed to be too unstable to mobilise.Safety is of paramount importance as these patients often have multiple large cannulas, monitoring and lines.Mobilisation protocols should
Investigation of the metaphorical perceptions of sports sciences faculty students regarding the conceptions of play and physical activity
The aim of this research is to examine the metaphorical perceptions of the students of auto rosvin the faculty of sports sciences towards the concepts of play and physical activity.In the results of the analysis, metaphors for the concept of game consist of nine metaphors, namely, repressive activity, physical well-being, life phenomenon, social an
Acetoacetate reduces growth and ATP concentration in cancer cell lines which over-express uncoupling protein 2
Abstract Background Recent evidence suggests that several human cancers are capable of uncoupling of mitochondrial ATP generation in the presence of intact tricarboxylic acid (TCA) enzymes.The goal of the current study was to test the hypothesis that ketone bodies can inhibit cell growth in aggressive cancers and that expression of uncoupling prote
Contextualizing Scenarios to Explore Social-Ecological Futures: A Three Step Participatory Case Study for the Humboldt Current Upwelling System
In the face of global change, the exploration of possible futures of marine social-ecological systems (MSES) becomes increasingly important.A variety of models aims at improving our understanding of ecosystem dynamics and complexities by assessing how systems react to internal and external drivers of change.However, these models are often built fro
Basic mechanisms of platelet receptor shedding
Proteolytic shedding of the extracellular ectodomain of platelet receptors provides a key mechanism for irreversible loss of ligand-binding capacity, and for regulating platelet function in health and disease.Platelets derived from megakaryocytes are small anucleate cells in peripheral blood, with the ability to rapidly adhere, become activated, an
