The Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events Affecting Patients after Discharge from the Hospital

TL;DR: The incidence and severity of adverse events affecting patients after discharge from the hospital to home were determined and two board-certified internists independently reviewed to determine whether medical management caused an injury and, if so, whether it was preventable or ameliorable.

Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia induces accumulation of p53 protein, but activation of a G1-phase checkpoint by low-oxygen conditions is independent of p53 status.

TL;DR: Hypoxia is an example of a "nongenotoxic" stress which induces p53 activity by a different pathway than DNA-damaging agents, and cells expressing the human papillomavirus E6 gene, which show increased degradation of p53 by ubiquitination and fail to accumulate p53 in response to DNA-damage agents, do increase their p53 levels following heat and hypoxia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delirium and its motoric subtypes: A study of 614 critically ill patients.

TL;DR: To describe the motoric subtypes of delirium in critically ill patients and compare patients aged 65 and older with a younger cohort is compared.
