Amyloid Fibrils03:03

Amyloid Fibrils

12.1K
Amyloid fibrils are aggregates of misfolded proteins.  Under most circumstances, misfolded proteins are either refolded by chaperone proteins or degraded by the proteasome. However, in the case of a mutation or a disease, these proteins can accumulate to form large clusters and often further assemble to form elongated fibers, called fibrils. 
Amyloid deposits were observed as early as 1639 in the liver and the spleen.   In 1854, Rudolph Virchow performed iodine staining,...

Fibril-associated Collagen01:11

Fibril-associated Collagen

3.4K
Fibril-associated collagens are a type of collagens present in the extracellular matrix with interrupted triple helices or FACIT (Fibril-associated collagens interrupted triple-helices). FACIT help connect and attach the collagen fibrils with each other as well as with other proteins of the extracellular matrix.
For example, the type II collagen fibrils in cartilage have covalently bound type IX fibril-associated collagens at regular intervals. Other types of fibril-associated collagens are...

Burn Injuries01:22

Burn Injuries

4.6K
Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...

ECG Interpretation of Arrhythmias II: Atrial, Junctional and Ventricular Arrhythmias01:25

ECG Interpretation of Arrhythmias II: Atrial, Junctional and Ventricular Arrhythmias

625
Arrhythmia is a condition characterized by an irregular heart rhythm, with ECG changes that differ based on its origin and nature. The types of arrhythmias discussed below include atrial, junctional, and ventricular arrhythmias.Atrial ArrhythmiasPremature Atrial Complexes (PACs): PACs are early atrial beats caused by stress, caffeine, alcohol, electrolyte imbalances, hypoxia, hyperthyroidism, or certain medications (e.g., bronchodilators and decongestants). The ECG shows early P waves with an...

Acute Kidney Injury I: Introduction01:22

Acute Kidney Injury I: Introduction

817
Introduction:Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) describes a swift decrease in kidney function occurring over hours to days, characterized by the kidneys' failure to remove waste products from the bloodstream. This leads to dangerous complications like metabolic acidosis, fluid overload, and electrolyte imbalances, such as hyperkalemia, which can cause life-threatening arrhythmias. AKI is common in both hospital and outpatient settings, often triggered by dehydration, sepsis, or exposure to nephrotoxic...

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric sports medicine
    • Injury prevention research
    • Biomechanical engineering of protective gear

    Background:

    • Sports injuries are a significant concern in pediatric populations.
    • Current protective equipment may not be adequately preventing common injuries.
    • A specific case prompted a re-evaluation of existing safety standards.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Review of current protective equipment efficacy.
    • Recommendations for equipment modification based on injury mechanism.

    Main Results:

    • A seemingly minor injury occurred despite the use of standard protective equipment.
    • The specific injury mechanism suggests a vulnerability in current gear.
    • The case provides a basis for advocating equipment redesign.

    Conclusions:

    • Protective equipment requires reassessment and potential modification to enhance child safety in sports.
    • Implementing updated gear could lower the rate of pediatric sports injuries.
    • Further research into sports equipment biomechanics is warranted.
