One of the cornerstones in resuscitation training is defibrillation safety, inadvertent "shocking" of the patient when another person has contact with the patient may have a range of safety consequences. The objective of the study was to assess visual...

Transcriptome and metabolome analysis of plant sulfate starvation and resupply provides novel information on transcriptional regulation of metabolism associated with sulfur, nitrogen and phosphorus nutritional responses in Arabidopsis.

Frontiers in plant science

Bielecka M, Watanabe M, Morcuende R, Scheible WR, Hawkesford MJ, Hesse H, Hoefgen R.
PMID: 25674096
Front Plant Sci. 2015 Jan 28;5:805. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2014.00805. eCollection 2014.

Sulfur is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development. Reaching a thorough understanding of the molecular basis for changes in plant metabolism depending on the sulfur-nutritional status at the systems level will advance our basic knowledge and help...

An Unusual Fracture in Arm Wrestling.

The Physician and sportsmedicine

Fallis G, Ferguson K, Malcolm B.
PMID: 27404425

PURPOSE: The Melbourne Metropolitan Fire and Emergency Services Board (MFESB) was the first fire service in Australia to implement a service-wide emergency medical response (EMR) program in 2001. No additional scientific analysis of the first responder program has been...

The effects of spatial structure, frequency dependence and resistance evolution on the dynamics of toxin-mediated microbial invasions.

Evolutionary applications

Libberton B, Horsburgh MJ, Brockhurst MA.
PMID: 26240609
Evol Appl. 2015 Aug;8(7):738-50. doi: 10.1111/eva.12284. Epub 2015 Jul 16.

Recent evidence suggests that interference competition between bacteria shapes the distribution of the opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus in the lower nasal airway of humans, either by preventing colonization or by driving displacement. This competition within the nasal microbial community...

Nomogram to predict prostate cancer diagnosis on primary transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy in a contemporary series.

Current urology

DiBlasio CJ, Derweesh IH, Maddox MM, Mehrazin R, Yu C, Malcolm JB, Aleman MA, Patterson AL, Wake RW, Kattan MW.
PMID: 24917732
Curr Urol. 2013 Jan;6(3):141-5. doi: 10.1159/000343528. Epub 2012 Dec 21.

OBJECTIVE: Transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUSB) remains the mainstay for prostate cancer (CaP) diagnosis. Numerous variables have shown associations with development of CaP. We present a nomogram that predicts the probability of detecting CaP on TRUSB.METHODS: After obtaining institutional review...

Developing a real time sensing system to monitor bacteria in wound dressings.

Biosensors

Farrow MJ, Hunter IS, Connolly P.
PMID: 25585709
Biosensors (Basel). 2012 May 09;2(2):171-88. doi: 10.3390/bios2020171.

Infection control is a key aspect of wound management strategies. Infection results in chemical imbalances and inflammation in the wound and may lead to prolonged healing times and degradation of the wound surface. Frequent changing of wound dressings may...

Affine Registration of label maps in Label Space.

Journal of computing

Rathi Y, Malcolm J, Bouix S, Tannenbaum A, Shenton ME.
PMID: 26029473
J Comput. 2010 Apr;2(4):1-11.

Two key aspects of coupled multi-object shape analysis and atlas generation are the choice of representation and subsequent registration methods used to align the sample set. For example, a typical brain image can be labeled into three structures: grey...
