University students' subjective and objective knowledge of opioids warrants more effective and engaging substance use education on college campuses.Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 1 complexed with cyclin B is a driver of mitosis, while CDK2 drives S phase entry and replicon initiation. CDK2 activity increases as cells progress through S phase, and its cyclin partner switches from cyclin E to cyclin A. Activation of CDK2 requires dephosphorylation of tyrosine-15 by CDC25A. DNA damage activates the checkpoint protein CHK1, which phosphorylates and degrades CDC25A to prevent activation of CDK2 and protect from cell cycle progression before damage is repaired. CHK1 inhibitors were developed to circumvent this arrest and enhance the efficacy of many cancer chemotherapeutic agents. CHK1 inhibition results in the accumulation of CDC25A and activation of CDK2. We demonstrate that inhibition of CDK2 or suppression of cyclin A also results in accumulation of CDC25A suggesting a feedback loop that prevents over activation of this pathway. BX-795 The feedback inhibition of CDC25A targets phosphorylation of S88-CDC25A, which resides within a CDK consensus sequence. In contrast, it appears that CDK complexes with cyclin B (and possibly cyclin E) stabilize CDC25A in a feed-forward activation loop. While CDK2/cyclin A would normally be active at late S/G2, we propose that this feedback inhibitory loop prevents over activation of CDK2 in early S phase, while still leaving CDK2/cyclin E to catalyze replicon initiation. One importance of this observation is that a subset of cancer cell lines are very sensitive to CHK1 inhibition, which is mediated by CDK2/cyclin A activity in S phase cells. Hence, dysregulation of this feedback loop might facilitate sensitivity of the cells.Ambient ozone measurements are often used as surrogates for personal exposures. Due to the limited number of central ozone monitors and varying personal behavioral patterns, some level of variability between ambient and personal exposures is expected. Low-cost sensors and different ways to capture personal activity patterns are being developed as an effort to improve the accuracy of exposure assessment. However, it is still most common to use the traditional approach of using unadjusted ambient concentrations as surrogates for personal exposures. To our knowledge, there has not been a meta-analysis that summarizes the findings from studies that investigated the differences between personal and ambient ozone. We conducted a literature search in PubMed and Science Direct for peer-reviewed studies reporting at least one of the following in a numeric format 1) personal-ambient measurements, 2) personal-ambient slopes, or 3) personal-ambient correlations to identify and summarize existing studies that investigatederpreting the results from ozone epidemiological studies. Implications The traditional approach of using ambient ozone measurements as surrogates for personal exposures is likely to result in exposure misclassification, which is a well-recognized source of bias in epidemiological studies. There are efforts to characterize the differences between ambient and personal ozone measurements, though, to our knowledge, there has not been a meta-analysis that summarizes the findings of different studies. Better understanding of the pattern and magnitude of exposure error for ambient and personal ozone can provide directions for future studies and context for interpreting the results from ozone epidemiological studies.Objective The aim of the current study was to evaluate immunogenicity and safety levels of human inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) which includes two A strains (A/H1N1, A/H3N2) and two B lineages (B/Victoria, B/Yamagata) in healthy adults via meta-analysis. Methods Searches were conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and EMBASE databases published in 2011-2020 according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The purpose was to collect and perform meta-analysis of related randomized clinical trial (RCT) data concerning safety and immunogenicity levels of human QIV compared with inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV). Results A total of 9 literatures were included. There was no significant difference in the seroconversion(SCR) and seroprotection(SPR) between QIV and TIV for influenza A strains (A/H1N1, A/H3N2) and the B lineage included in the TIV. QIV showed superior efficacy for the B lineage not included in the TIV SCR RR of 2.20 (95%CI 1.44-3.37, p = .0003) and SPR RR of 1.34 (95%CI 1.10-1.63, p = .004) for B/Victoria, and SCR RR of 1.88 (95%CI 1.53-2.31, p less then .00001) and SPR RR of 1.11 (95%CI 1.03-1.19, p = .006) for B/Yamagata, respectively. There were no significant differences between QIV and TIV for local and systemic adverse events(AE) post-vaccination. Conclusion In adults 18-64 years old, QIV not only produced similar immunogenicity and safety levels to TIV, but also had better immunogenicity against influenza B vaccine strains not included in TIV.
Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) is a validated tool for rating the depth of depression. The structured interview guide for the MADRS (SIGMA) is an interview guide that has been developed in order to increase the inter-rater reliability. Patients often meet more than one psychiatrists during their hospitalization for depression. A divergent rating of depression between psychiatrists could affect both the treatment and the outcome. This makes knowledge of the inter-rater reliability among psychiatrists important.
The primary aim of this study was to measure the inter-rater reliability between psychiatrists when rating depression using the MADRS.
Ten in-patients, who were diagnosed with depression, were filmed while being interviewed using the SIGMA. The patients were after that instructed to rate themselves using the self-rating version of the MADRS. Ten psychiatrists rated the pre-recorded interviews according to the MADRS. The inter-rater reliability was measured using intra-class correlation (ICC).
The mean ICC for the total MADRS score was 0.952 (95% CI 0.891-0.986;
<.001) and Cronbach's alpha 0.961. ICC values for each item ranged between 0.866 and 0.978 (
<.001). Cronbach's alpha ranged between 0.905 and 0.984. The ICC values, when comparing the psychiatrists rating to the patients rating, ranged between 0.307 and 0.809 (p<.001).
All of the ICC values in the study, except when comparing the psychiatrists rating to the patients self-rating, were considered to be excellent. This study confirms the findings of reliability found in similar studies which involved fewer raters and not exclusively psychiatrists.
