Nuclear factor I-A regulates diverse reactive astrocyte responses after CNS injury
Abstract Reactive astrocytes are associated with every form of neurological injury. Despite their ubiquity, the molecular mechanisms controlling their production and diverse functions remain poorly defined. Because many features of astrocyte development are recapitulated in reactive astrocytes, we investigated the role of nuclear factor I-A (NFIA), a key transcriptional regulator of astrocyte ...

Balance Error Scoring System with force/pressure platform
A look at the Balance Error Scoring System with force/pressure platform The Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) is a well-known tool to evaluate the effects of a head injury on static postural stability, or standing still in different positions. This protocol is often used in athletes after sport-related concussions or mild traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) [1]. BESS was developed by researchers ...

Conceptual Considerations for Device-Based Therapy in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Abstract Acute decompensated heart failure remains the most common cause of hospitalization in older adults, and studies of pharmacological therapies have yielded limited progress in improving outcomes for these patients. This has prompted the development of novel device–based interventions, classified mechanistically based on the way in which they intend to improve central hemodynamics, ...
