Anesthesia information management systems
Introduction: The use of anesthesia information management systems (AIMS) is on the increase.This is particularly true for academic anesthesia departments.The main reasons for slow adoption of these systems in the past are financial barriers associated with implementation of these systems and their not so traditionally obvious potential to improve
JAK-STAT and AKT pathway-coupled genes in erythroid progenitor cells through ontogeny
Abstract Background It has been reported that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT signaling pathway regulates erythropoietin (EPO)-induced survival, proliferation, and maturation of early erythroid progenitors.Erythroid cell proliferation and survival have also been related to activation of the JAK-STAT pathway.The goal of this study was t
