The cost of treating HAPIs in Australian public hospitals was recently reported at AUS$983 million per annum. There are three main sources of data for documenting pressure injury (PI) occurrence in Australian hospitals incident reporting, medical record coded data, and real-time surveys of pressure injury. PI data reported at hospital level and to external agencies using these three different sources are variable. This reporting issue leads to inaccurate data interpretation and hinders improvement in accuracy of PI identification and PI prevention. This study involved a comparison of the three different data sources in selected Australian hospitals, to improve the accuracy and comparability of data. Findings from this study provide benchmark areas for improvement in PI documenting and reporting. Better understanding the agreement between the three data sets could lead to a more efficient and effective sharing of data sources. © 2020 Medicalhelplines.com Inc and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Prostate adenocarcinoma (PCa) is the most common cause of death due to malignancy among men, and bone metastasis is the leading cause of mortality in patients with PCa. Therefore, identifying the causes and molecular mechanism of bone metastasis is important for early detection, diagnosis, and personalized therapy. In this study, we systematically analyzed molecular correlates of bone metastasis by bioinformatics analysis. A total of 12 differentially-expressed miRNAs and 102 differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Five miRNAs had prognostic significance in biochemical recurrence free (BCR-free) survival (miR-636, miR-491-5p, miR-199b-5p, miR-199b-3p, miR-28-3p). The DEGs were significantly enriched in extracellular matrix, cell-substrate adhesion, collagen, and integrin. Seven hub genes (VCAN, COL3A1, COL1A1, APOE, COL1A2, SDC1, THY1) with worse BCR-free survival and one hub gene (MMP9) with worse overall survival (OS) were detected. MicroRNA-636, a novel oncogene, was found to be upregulated in bone metastatic PCa tissues and also predominately upregulated in human PCa cell lines. MicroRNA-636 promoted cellular invasion and migration, and may promote bone metastasis via targeting MBNL2, TNS1, and STAB1. In conclusion, we have successfully defined molecular signatures of bone metastasis in PCa. © 2020 The Authors. Published by FEBS Press and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.The sodium channel NaX (encoded by the SCN7A gene) was originally identified in the heart and skeletal muscle and is structurally similar to the other voltage-gated sodium channels but does not appear to be voltage gated. Although NaX is expressed at high levels in cardiac and skeletal muscle, little information exists on the function of NaX in these tissues. see more Transcriptional profiling of ion channels in the heart in a subset of patients with Brugada syndrome revealed an inverse relationship between the expression of NaX and NaV 1.5 suggesting that, in cardiac myocytes, the expression of these channels may be linked. We propose that NaX plays a role in excitation-contraction coupling based on our experimental observations. Here we show that in cardiac myocytes, NaX is expressed in a striated pattern on the sarcolemma in regions corresponding to the sarcomeric M-line. Knocking down NaX expression decreased NaV 1.5 mRNA and protein and reduced the inward sodium current (INa+ ) following cell depolarization. When the expression of NaV 1.5 was knocked down, ~85% of the INa+ was reduced consistent with the observations that NaV 1.5 is the main voltage-gated sodium channel in cardiac muscle and that NaX likely does not directly participate in mediating the INa+ following depolarization. Silencing NaV 1.5 expression led to significant upregulation of NaX mRNA. Similar to NaV 1.5, NaX protein levels were rapidly downregulated when the intracellular [Ca2+ ] was increased either by CaCl2 or caffeine. These data suggest that a relationship exists between NaX and NaV 1.5 and that NaX may play a role in excitation-contraction coupling. © 2020 International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.Mutually interacted musculoskeletal tissues work together within the physiological environment full of varieties of external stimulus. Consistent with the locomotive function of the tissues, musculoskeletal cells are remarkably mechanosensitive to the physical cues. Signals like extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness, topography, and geometry can be sensed and transduced into intracellular signaling cascades to trigger a series of cell responses, including cell adhesion, cell phenotype maintenance, cytoskeletal reconstruction, and stem cell differentiation (Du et al., 2011; Murphy et al., 2014; Lv et al., 2015; Kim et al., 2016; Kumar et al., 2017). With the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the potent effects of ECM physical properties on cell behaviors at the cell-matrix interface are drawing much attention. To mimic the interaction between cell and its ECM physical properties, developing advanced biomaterials with desired characteristics which could achieve the biointerface between cells and the surrounded matrix close to the physiological conditions becomes a great hotspot. In this review, based on the current publications in the field of biointerfaces, we systematically summarized the significant roles of stiffness and topography on musculoskeletal cell behaviors. We hope to shed light on the importance of physical cues in musculoskeletal tissue engineering and provide up to date strategies towards the natural or artificial replication of physiological microenvironment. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.The study of CO2 electrochemical reduction to useful compounds using bare or modified BDD electrode attracts numerous attentions. Meanwhile, the efficiency of products obtained from CO2 electrochemical reduction is known to be determined by the electrode material and the electrolyte. Formic acid as main product and CO as a minor product, have also been known on the CO2 reduction using BDD electrode. Recently, we reported the successful improvement of CO production from the reduction of CO2 by decorating the surface of BDD electrode with palladium particles. Following this, herein, we present further investigation on electrolyte dependence, including cation and anion dependence and also concentration effect in order to understand deeply the CO2 reduction on surface of palladium modified BDD electrode. The results suggest the use of NaCl and KCl as a catholyte for optimum performance, in addition to the improvement of CO2 reduction product in higher electrolyte concentration. © 2020 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
