Resumen
The principal regulator of erythropoiesis is the glycoprotein erythropoietin, which interacts with a specific cell surface receptor (EpoR). A study aimed at analyzing EpoR gene regulation has shown that both pluripotent embryonal stem cells and early multipotent hematopoietic cells express EpoR transcripts. Commitment to nonerythroid lineages (e.g., macrophage or lymphocytic) results in the shutdown of EpoR gene expression, whereas commitment to the erythroid lineage is concurrent with or followed by dramatic increases in EpoR transcription.

Resumen
The cytoplasmic domain of the cloned erythropoietin (EPO) receptor (EPOR) contains no protein kinase motif, yet addition of EPO to EPO-responsive cells causes an increase in protein-tyrosine phosphorylation. Here we show that addition of EPO or interleukin-3 (IL-3) to an IL-3-dependent cell line expressing the wild-type EPOR causes a small fraction (less than 5%) of total cellular EPOR to shift in gel mobility from 66 to 72 kDa, due at least in part to phosphorylation. Using biotinylated EPO as an affinity reagent, we show that the 72-kDa species is greatly enriched on the cell surface. To dem

Resumen
ABSTRACT Abnormal erythropoietin (EPO)-independent cell growth is induced after infection of erythroid progenitor cells with a polycythemic strain of Friend virus (FVp). Binding of its Env-related glycoprotein (gp55) to the EPO receptor (EPOR) mimics the activation of the EPOR with EPO. We investigated the gp55-EPOR signaling in erythroblastoid cells from mice infected with FVp and in cells of FVp-induced or gp55-transgenic-mouse-derived erythroleukemia cell lines, comparing it with the EPO-EPOR signaling in EPO-responsive erythroblastoid cells.

ABSTRACT Biochemical and genetic studies have shown that Jak2 is an essential component of EpoR signal transduction which is required for normal erythropoiesis. However, whether Jak2 is the sole direct mediator of EpoR signal transduction remains controversial. To address this issue, we have used an extensive and systematic mutational analysis across the EpoR cytoplasmic tail and transmembrane domain with the goal of determining whether mutants that negatively affected EpoR biological activity but retained Jak2 activation could be identified.

Molecular exercise physiology is the study of exercise physiology using molecular biology methods. The development of differentiated cell types is regulated by transcription factors like the muscle-making MyoD that specifies cell type, while others regulate the development of muscle, tendons, and bones. Maternal nutrition and exercise commonly affect embryonic development through epigenetic mechanisms. Adaptation to exercise involves sensor proteins detecting exercise-related signals, the processing of signals by signalling proteins and networks, and the regulation of the actual adaptations by

Resumen
Healthcare workers can transmit blood-borne virus (BBV) infections to their patients during the course of performing exposure prone procedures. To reduce the risk of this happening, healthcare workers entering the National Health Service who wish to perform EPPs in the UK must be tested for BBV infection. Hepatitis B- infected healthcare workers may perform EPPs providing they are HBE antigen negative and have a viral load below 200 IU/ml, subject to annual viral load checks. If their viral load is >200 but < 20,000 IU/ml, then they may suppress HBV replication using nucleos(t)ide analogue antiviral therapy, subject to 3-monthly viral load measurement. Healthcare workers known to be currently infected with hepatitis C virus are not allowed to perform EPPs but may do so if they are clear of HCV RNA 12 weeks after antiviral therapy. HIV-infected healthcare workers may perform EPPs if their viral load is suppressed to < 200 copies/ml whilst on combination antiretroviral therapy, subject to 3-monthly monitoring.

Resumen
An ectopic pregnancy (EP) occurs when a pregnancy implants outside the uterus. Over 98% implant in the fallopian tube. Non-tubal sites include the interstitium, ovary, cervix, and caesarean section scars. The resultant growth of the EP can damage the implanted tissue, giving rise to pain and intraperitoneal bleeding. The aetiology of EP is uncertain. Risk factors include chlamydial infection, smoking, and assisted reproductive technologies. Many cases occur without identifiable risk factors or typical symptoms, emphasizing the importance of considering the possibility of EP in all women of reproductive age. EPs are diagnosed by a combination of transvaginal ultrasound and serial human chorionic gonadotrophin monitoring. Tubal EPs can be managed effectively and safely by surgical excision (usually via a laparoscopic approach), medical management with intramuscular methotrexate, or expectant management depending upon the size of the EP and the clinical presentation. Non-tubal EPs should be managed on an individual basis.

Two cases are presented here, both involving traumatic injuries resulting from cycle accidents. Significant X-ray findings are missed by the emergency physicians (EPs) but picked up by radiologists in both cases. These are good demonstrations of the common search satisficing error. The first case also demonstrates a significant interference from factors that tend to push decision making into Type 1 processing—cognitive loading, fatigue, and dysphoria. The second case is an example of error due to the EPs’ routine being disrupted by a corridor consultation and authority gradient effects.

Resumen
This short chapter is intended for cardiac nurses who require a brief introduction to the specialty of cardiac electrophysiology (EP). Further reading and case observation would be required to attain a firm understanding of the technical principles and applications of EP. Much can be learned about the patient’s cardiac rhythm from a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) or ambulatory ECG; however, sometimes an EP study (EPS) is required to diagnose the origin and mechanism of an arrhythmia. EPS is used to guide ablation and device or drug treatment. Ablation is an established treatment for supraventricular tachycardias (SVT), and increasingly is used in atrial fibrillation andventricular tachycardia.

Resumen
This chapter is a case-based discussion of the management of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in children. The case illustrates the challenges of medical management of SVT in neonatal life and infancy, both in terms of acute presentation, as well as longer-term medical care and outpatient monitoring to reduce recurrences of paroxysmal tachycardias as the child grows. Ultimately, the child benefits from an electrophysiology study (EPS) and catheter ablation. The chapter more broadly covers the varying clinical presentations of SVT in children and common treatment strategies employed. The electrophysiological mechanisms of SVT commonly seen in children are outlined. There is a review of the evidence behind the medical management of SVT in children, including a practical guide on the choice of anti-arrhythmic medication for different mechanisms of tachycardia, based on current guidelines. Finally, the chapter summarizes the invasive treatment option of EPS and ablation in children.

Resumen
Antipsychotic drugs are utilized for far more than the treatment of psychosis in schizophrenia, their first indication. They now find wide use in a variety of psychotic disorders, mood disorders, developmental disorders, and drug-induced disorders. The classification of drugs as typical or atypical is based on their differences in extra-pyramidal side effects (EPS). This chapter emphasizes the greater diversity, efficacy, and safety of the atypical drugs, and the risk of tardive dyskinesia of the typical drugs. The atypical drug action may produce improvement in cognitive function and negative symptoms, as well as psychosis and mood in some patients. This diversity includes atypical drugs which produce minimal weight gain. Long-acting injectable formulations are recommended for non-adherent patients. The exceptional ability of clozapine to reduce the risk for suicide and to decrease mortality in schizophrenia is discussed. Anticholinergic and other drugs to treat EPS are also discussed.

Resumen
Electrophysiology (EP) is concerned with electrical problems of the heart. This subspecialty of cardiology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias. Electrophysiologists could be described as heart electricians. Electrophysiologists treat patients with slow arrhythmias (bradycardia) and fast arrhythmias (tachycardia). This chapter focuses on tachycardia diagnosis and treatment. Some tachycardias are considered simply a nuisance for the patient while others, specifically ventricular tachycardia, can be lethal. The EP study (EPS) is a powerful diagnostic tool at the electrophysiologist’s disposal. This invasive procedure uses catheters and recording systems to pinpoint the cause of a tachycardia which helps direct treatment. This may involve such measures as medications but in many cases can take the form of ablation. Ablation is a curative form of treatment, similar to an EPS, where the cardiac cells causing the tachycardia are destroyed using heat or cold. This short chapter is intended for cardiac nurses who require a brief introduction to the highly complex specialty of cardiac EP.

Resumen
The discovery by Delay and Denicker in 1953 that chlorpromazine was highly effective in alleviating delusions, hallucinations, and disorganized thinking, was the seminal breakthrough in the treatment of schizophrenia, the first agent to produce sufficient relief of core psychotic symptoms to permit life outside of institutions for many patients with schizophrenia, and even a return to a semblance of function within normal limits. Chlorpromazine and the other related typical antipsychotic drugs which were introduced over the next 30 years have proven to be of immense benefit to vast numbers of people who experience psychotic symptoms as a component of a diverse group of neuropsychiatric and medical disorders, as well as drug-induced psychoses. These drugs have been invaluable in providing clues to the aetiology of schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness with psychotic features and as tools in understanding fundamental neural processes, especially those involving dopamine, a key neurotransmitter involved in psychosis. This class of drugs has now been supplanted by the so-called atypical antipsychotic drugs, of which clozapine is the prototype. This chapter will describe the various classes of antipsychotic agents, with emphasis on the atypical antipsychotic drugs, their benefits and adverse effects, recommendations for use in clinical practice, and mechanism of action. The drugs used to treat the extrapyramidal side-effects (EPS) produced mainly by the typical antipsychotic drugs are also considered.
