Wheelchair 4 Wheel Drive - 0 views

  •  
    A wheelchair is a wheeled mobility device in which the user sits. The device is propelled either manually (by turning the wheels by the hand) or via various automated systems. Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness (physiological or physical), injury, or disability. The chair seat size (width and depth), seat-to-floor height, footrests/leg rests, front caster outriggers, adjustable backrests, controls, and many other features can be customized on, or added to, many basic models, while some users, often those with specialised needs, may have wheelchairs custom-built. The usual size of the rear wheel ranges from twenty to twenty-six inches in diameter. A larger wheel increases the height of the seat off the ground and decreases the rolling resistance, thus easing the effort of pushing. The rear wheels can be solid or pneumatic. Solid wheels have a low rolling resistance and are very easy to maintain. They are ideal for use in institutional settings or for indoor use in noncarpeted areas. Pneumatic wheels have better grip on carpeted surfaces and are better if there is going to be significant outdoor use, but they run the risk of flats and require higher maintenance. The flat tire problem can be circumvented by the use of a foam insert that can prevent leaks. Wire spokes are lighter in weight but higher in maintenance. Most older persons will select large plastic spokes referred to as mag wheels. The wheels can be offset posteriorly to decrease the risk of tipping backwards.

Portable Wheelchair Provides Stage AccessibilityPortable chair frames can be constructe... - 0 views

  •  
    Portable chair frames can be constructed of either steel or aluminum and have weights anywhere from 15 lbs. and 45 lbs. depending on the model. All chairs will fold from side to side and some have folding back the make transporting and storage easier. Most chairs have weight capacity of 250 lbs. But the heavy duty models will hold up to about 450 lbs. Of course, a chair which will hold 450 lbs. Will be a much more heavily constructed and will push the weight towards the 45 lb. weight. The most common wheel configuration for portable chairs is four 8\" casters with solid tires. The front two casters will swivel to enable turning. On some models the rear two wheels may be 12\" in diameter instead of 8\" and have air tires insted of solid tires. The larger wheels will give a little bit softer ride and traverse rough terrain a little better. They fold up in interesting ways to collapse to the size of a suitcase when not in use and are usually large enough to cover one or two stairs when extended. It is important to consider their weight and the person who would most often be carrying the ramp and setting it up.

Growth Inhibition of Ovarian Tumor-Initiating Cells by Niclosamide | Molecular Cancer T... - 0 views

  • Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy and the fifth-most cause of overall cancer death of women in developed countries
  • An increasingly accepted cancer stem cell hypothesis regards tumors as caricatures of normal organs, possessing a hierarchy of cell types, at various stages of aberrant differentiation, descended from precursor tumor-initiating cells (TIC) cells that are highly resistant to conventional cytotoxics
  • Significant changes of gene expression in 2,928 genes were identified after niclosamide treatment for different time periods
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is believed to be its anti-helminthic mechanism of action
  • we hypothesized that niclosamides antagonistic effects on OTICs could, in part, be due to its disruption of metabolism
  • Our results showed that genes participating in protein complexes of oxidative phosphorylation were downregulated
  • niclosamide treatment resulted in a more than 20% increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cultured OTICs
  • niclosamide, which has proved to be safe and effective for the past 2 decades against numerous parasites, inhibited OTIC growth both in vitro and in vivo
  • niclosamide represses metabolic enzymes responsible for bioenergetics, biosynthesis, and redox regulation specifically in OTICs, presumably leading to mitochondrial intrinsic apoptosis pathways, loss of tumor stemness, and growth inhibition
  • Niclosamide is believed to inhibit mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation
  • Niclosamide was reported to inactivate NF-κB, causing mitochondrial damage and the generation of ROS, leading to apoptosis of leukemic stem cells
  • niclosamide were identified in a screen for mTOR-signaling inhibitors
  • mTOR was reported to maintain stemness properties of HSCs by inhibiting mitochondrial biogenesis and ROS levels (39), implying that mTOR inhibitors (such as niclosamide) may interfere with mitochondria and various metabolic pathways in TICs via disruption of antioxidant responses
  • We observed Wnt hyperactivity in OTICs, in agreement with previous hypotheses of Wnt inhibitor effectiveness as an ovarian cancer therapy
  • niclosamide has now been independently identified in screens for Wnt inhibitors
  • downregulation of the Wnt/β-catenin target oncogenes survivin and c-Myc
  • ovarian carcinogenesis, the cell-to-cell signaling pathway Notch (8), were also suppressed by niclosamide (data not shown). These results agree with another recent niclosamide study in leukemia (49), and it has been widely hypothesized that disruption of Notch signaling may represent a highly effective therapy for ovarian and other solid tumors, via its essentiality to maintaining TIC stemness
  •  
    Niclosamide, common anti-parasitic medication, inhibits cellular metabolism and increases ROS; both of which provide powerful anti-proliferative, anti-cancer treatment mechanism in TICs. Powerful target therapy for cancer stem cells. Also shown to inhibit Wnt stimulated oncogenes survivin and c-Myc, disrupts Notch signaling, inactivates NF-kappaBeta, and inhibits mTOR-signaling.  This has been found in in vitro and in vivo studies.

    Pediatric wheelchairs enable child or teen to participate in all types of daily activities. Pediatric wheelchairs are lightweight, portable, and convenient for use at school, day programs, doctor visits, and recreation with family and friends. Pediatric wheelchairs comes in wide range of sizes and vibrant colors for every lightweight wheelchair. A variety of positioning options are also available. Pediatric wheelchairs are manufactured with unsurpassed quality and style, specializing in compact-folding, lightweight wheelchairs for children of all ages - from toddlers to teens! Custom built to child's specific needs, mobility aids offer rehabilitative benefits for physical disabilities from Cerebral Palsy to Autism. Pediatric, or child wheelchairs, are mobile aids designed for and used by children. Children require the use of a wheelchair for many different reasons, some may have suffered head injuries, some have muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy, some are amputees, and others only have an occasional use of their wheelchairs in lieu of a walking device or crutches. Certain types of pediatric wheelchairs are built to expand in size to accommodate increased bulk and weight by altering a cross balance on the bottom of the chair. The front frames for the legs can be lengthened as child's legs grow longer. For a pediatrician seeking to prescribe a Pediatric Wheelchair, must be sure that the patient has the proper upper body strength to use one. If the patient is too weak for self movement, the practitioner would be better to consider a powered wheelchair for mobility. While Pediatric Wheelchairs are smaller and can be just as manuverable as scooters, that depends upon the patient's own abilities in steering the chair. These are factors that the doctor must think about before recommending what type of wheelchair a patient should get. Pediatric Wheelchair with a body contouring S-Shaped seat frame and contoured armrests provides the user with all day comfort an

Vitamin C preferentially kills cancer stem cells in hepatocellular carcinoma via SVCT-2... - 0 views

  • Chen et al. have revealed that ascorbate at pharmacologic concentrations (0.3–20 mM) achieved only by intravenously (i.v.) administration selectively kills a variety of cancer cell lines in vitro, but has little cytotoxic effect on normal cells.
  • Ascorbic acid (the reduced form of vitamin C) is specifically transported into cells by sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters (SVCTs)
  • SVCT-1 is predominantly expressed in epithelial tissues
  • ...41 more annotations...
  • whereas the expression of SVCT-2 is ubiquitous
  • differential sensitivity to VC may result from variations in VC flow into cells, which is dependent on SVCT-2 expression.
  • high-dose VC significantly impaired both the tumorspheres initiation (Fig. 4d, e) and the growth of established tumorspheres derived from HCC cells (Fig. 4f, g) in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner.
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
  • The antioxidant, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), preventing VC-induced ROS production (a ROS scavenger), completely restored the viability and colony formation among VC-treated cells
  • DNA double-strand damage was found following VC treatment
  • DNA damage was prevented by NAC
  • Interestingly, the combination of VC and cisplatin was even more effective in reducing tumor growth and weight
  • Consistent with the in vitro results, stemness-related genes expressions in tumor xenograft were remarkably reduced after VC or VC+cisplatin treatment, whereas conventional cisplatin therapy alone led to the increase of CSCs
  • VC is one of the numerous common hepatoprotectants.
  • Interestingly, at extracellular concentrations greater than 1 mM, VC induces strong cytotoxicity to cancer cells including liver cancer cells
  • we hypothesized that intravenous VC might reduce the risk of recurrence in HCC patients after curative liver resection.
  • Intriguingly, the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) for patients who received intravenous VC was 24%, as opposed to 15% for no intravenous VC-treated patients
  • Median DFS time for VC users was 25.2 vs. 18 months for VC non-users
  • intravenous VC use is linked to improved DFS in HCC patients.
  • In this study, based on the elevated expression of SVCT-2, which is responsible for VC uptake, in liver CSCs, we revealed that clinically achievable concentrations of VC preferentially eradicated liver CSCs in vitro and in vivo

      the authors here made similar mistakes to the Mayo authors i.e. under doses here in this study.  They dosed at only 2 grams IVC.  A woefully low dose of IVC.
  • Additionally, we found that intravenous VC reduced the risk of post-surgical HCC progression in a retrospective cohort study.

      Their comfort zone was 1mM.  They should have targeted 20-40 mM.
  • Three hundred thirty-nine participants (55.3%) received 2 g intravenous VC for 4 or more days after initial hepatectomy
  • As the key protein responsible for VC uptake in the liver, SVCT-2 played crucial roles in regulating the sensitivity to ascorbate-induced cytotoxicity
  • we also observed that SVCT-2 was highly expressed in human HCC samples and preferentially elevated in liver CSCs
  • SVCT-2 might serve as a potential CSC marker and therapeutic target in HCC
  • CSCs play critical roles in regulating tumor initiation, relapse, and chemoresistance
  • we revealed that VC treatment dramatically reduced the self-renewal ability, expression levels of CSC-associated genes, and percentages of CSCs in HCC, indicating that CSCs were more susceptible to VC-induced cell death
  • as a drug for eradicating CSCs, VC may represent a promising strategy for treatment of HCC, alone or particularly in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs
  • In HCC, we found that VC-generated ROS caused genotoxic stress (DNA damage) and metabolic stress (ATP depletion), which further activated the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21, leading to G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and caspase-dependent apoptosis in HCC cells
  • we demonstrated a synergistic effect of VC and chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin on killing HCC both in vitro and in vivo
  • Intravenous VC has also been reported to reduce chemotherapy-associated toxicity of carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients,38 but the specific mechanism needs further investigation

  • several clinical trials of high-dose intravenous VC have been conducted in patients with advanced cancer and have revealed improved quality of life and prolonged OS
  • high-dose VC was not toxic to immune cells and major immune cell subpopulations in vivo
  • high recurrence rate and heterogeneity
  • tumor progression, metastasis, and chemotherapy-resistance
  • SVCT-2 was highly expressed in HCC samples in comparison to peri-tumor tissues
  • high expression (grade 2+/3+) of SVCT-2 was in agreement with poorer overall survival (OS) of HCC patients (Fig. 1c) and more aggressive tumor behavior
  • SVCT-2 is enriched in liver CSCs
  • these data suggest that SVCT-2 is preferentially expressed in liver CSCs and is required for the maintenance of liver CSCs.
  • pharmacologic concentrations of plasma VC higher than 0.3 mM are achievable only from i.v. administration
  • The viabilities of HCC cells were dramatically decreased after exposure to VC in dose-dependent manner
  • VC and cisplatin combination further caused cell apoptosis in tumor xenograft
  • These results verify that VC inhibits tumor growth in HCC PDX models and SVCT-2 expression level is associated with VC response
  • qPCR and IHC analysis demonstrated that expression levels of CSC-associated genes and percentages of CSCs in PDXs dramatically declined after VC treatment, confirming the inhibitory role of VC in liver CSCs

    wheelchair category (standard, transport, power, etc.) could be classified as a reclining wheelchairs, since the product class is built around one key feature: the capability to adjust the backrest and/or footrest into a reclined position. This feature is especially important to users who find it difficult or impossible to sit in a fully upright position, and users who sleep in their chairs frequently. For those that are looking for a more portable chair, however, products from this category may not be a great fit. When compared with a similar, non-reclining chair, a reclining wheelchair tends to weigh more and - unlike other manual models - manual wheelchairs that recline typically aren't foldable. Some people use special wheelchairs to distribute pressure and thus reduce the risk of skin sores. These chairs also increase comfort and sitting tolerance. One type of chair, called "tilt in space," changes a person's orientation while maintaining fixed hip, knee, and ankle angles. The whole seat, in effect, tilts. The other chair option is called a recline system, which basically changes the seat-to-back angle, flattening out the back of the chair and in some cases raising the legs to form a flat surface.

This is a matter of seat angle and back angle, adjusting them according to body shape and degree of upper body balance. Poor seating makes slump, trying to get stable. The optimal posture is more upright, allowing spine to support. Ergonomic chairs are designed to confirm to a person's physical dimensions, allowing them to sit naturally and comfortably for long periods of time, while reducing the risk of pressure ulcers. Ergonomic system (Intelligent s-shaped ergonomic seating) provides efficient pressure relief by spreading weight over a greater area, at the same time provides stabilization and reduced sliding. With their lightweight frames and seats designed to reduce or prevent pressure points, ergonomic wheelchairs provide a comfortable option for mobility impaired users who have the upper body strength to propel themselves, or a caregiver strong enough to do so.

    Heavy duty wheelchair can either be manually-operated or motorized, each with its own pros and cons. A manual heavy-duty wheelchair gives full control of motion to the user, but the added weight from the reinforcements makes pushing or propelling the wheelchair much harder than normal.
