CONCLUSION Among several key symptoms, vaginal dryness, sleep disturbance, and bone and joint pain significantly predicted sexual problems during the first 2 years. Early identification of these symptoms may contribute to timely and tailored interventions.BACKGROUND The role of hepatic resection in the treatment of type I and II hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) remains controversial. In the present study, we aimed to identify whether hepatic resection was necessary for type I and II HCCA. METHODS A total of 23 patients classified as type I and II HCCA undergoing surgical resection were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups bile duct resection (BDR) group (n = 15) and hepatic resection (HR) group (n = 8). Systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to compare the R0 resection and long-term survival between BDR and HR for Bismuth type I and II HCCA. A total of 7 studies with 260 cases were included in this meta-analysis. RESULTS In our cohort, the R0 resection rate was 73.3% in BDR group and 87.5% in HR group. The HR group had a higher number of postoperative complications than the BDR group (P = 0.002). There was no difference in long-term survival (P = 0.544) and recurrence (P = 0.846) between BDR and HR in Bismuth type I and II HCCA. The meta-analysis showed that HR was associated with better R0 resection rate (RR 4.45, 95% CI 2.34-8.48) and overall survival (HR 2.15, 95% CI 1.34-3.44) compared with BDR group. There was no publication bias and undue influence of any single study. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis showed that HR was associated with better R0 resection rate and overall survival compared with BDR for type I and II HCCA patients. More aggressive surgical strategies should be increasingly considered for the treatment of type I and II HCCA patients.BACKGROUND Information on pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) for uterine malignancies in the current era is limited. In the present study, we analyzed the clinical course and results of PM for uterine malignancies in the era of modern imaging diagnostics to clarify the role of PM in the current era in a multi-institutional setting. METHODS Fifty-seven patients who underwent PM for uterine malignancies between 2006 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. The short- and long-term outcomes, along with factors associated with the prognosis, were analyzed. Details of the clinical course after PM were described. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 59.4 years. The primary tumor was located in the uterus corpus in 34 cases (60%) and in the uterus cervix in 23 cases (40%). The median disease-free interval (DFI) was 32 months. Forty patients (70%) received fluorine-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography before PM, and complete resection was achieved in 52 patients (91%). Postoperative complications occurred in 4 patients (7%). Of the 52 patients who underwent complete resection of pulmonary metastases, 28 experienced recurrence, and among these, 17 (60%) underwent local therapy, including six repeat PMs. Among the 52 patients who underwent complete resection, the 5-year relapse-free survival rate was 40.7% and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 68.8%. The univariate analysis revealed that a DFI of ≤ 24 months was associated with significantly poorer OS. CONCLUSIONS PM for uterine malignancies is safe and provides favorable long-term outcomes in selected patients. Patients with a DFI of > 24 months have better OS and are good candidates for PM.BACKGROUND Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein hypertension assessed with platelet count (PVH-PLT; platelet count  7 days; non-MIS 55% vs. MIS 29%), as well as higher morbidity (non-MIS 42% vs. MIS 29%) [p  less then 0.001]. In contrast, long-term oncological outcomes were comparable, including 3-year overall survival (non-MIS 66.2% vs. MIS 72.9%) and disease-free survival (non-MIS 47.3% vs. MIS 50.2%) [both p ≥ 0.08]. CONCLUSION An MIS approach was associated with improved short-term outcomes, but similar long-term outcomes, compared with open liver resection for patients with HCC and PVH-PLT. An MIS approach for liver resection should be considered for patients with HCC, even those individuals with PVH-PLT.INTRODUCTION Myoclonus-dystonia is an inherited disorder characterized by a combination of myoclonic jerks and dystonia. Mutations in the epsilon-sarcoglycan gene (SGCE) represent the main known genetic cause. In the last few years, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has shown significant promise in treating these patients. There is only one report in the literature of a patient with positive SGCE mutation and isolated myoclonus phenotype who has been successfully treated with DBS. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a 16-year-old young man with a history of quick jerks since childhood. They progressed gradually over the years involving the entire body and interfering with most of his daily activities. He had no dystonia. Genetic testing identified a single base deletion in exon 3 of the SGCE gene, considered very likely pathogenic. After unsuccessfully trying several oral medications, he underwent DBS of the globus pallidus internus (GPi). His Unified Myoclonus Rating Scale score during rest and with action improved by 92.8% and 82.6%, respectively. DISCUSSION The striking effect of DBS on myoclonic jerks confirms the superior benefit of DBS over oral medications. Further study is needed to determine the role of mutation status in predicting DBS response, especially considering that myoclonus-dystonia is genetically heterogeneous. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/kp-457.html CONCLUSION Our case confirms the poor response to oral medications and supports the use of GPi DBS for patients with genetically confirmed myoclonus-dystonia and isolated-myoclonus phenotype. In addition, our case represents familial myoclonus-dystonia due to a novel SGCE mutation.INTRODUCTION The production of the whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei now accounts for approximately 75% of the total shrimp production in Indonesia. The techniques used to produce whiteleg shrimp in Indonesia are still dominated by conventional rearing strategies using open-pond systems, which often contribute to unpredictable culture performance and weak sustainability. Alternative production strategies of closed aquaculture systems, including the recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) and hybrid zero water discharge-recirculating aquaculture system (hybrid system), have been developed and implemented for higher productivity, stability and sustainability of whiteleg shrimp grow-out production in Indonesia. Despite the positive aspects of the application of closed aquaculture systems in shrimp aquaculture, the differences in the characteristics of shrimp grown in closed RAS and hybrid systems compared to open-pond systems remain unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the differences in the metabolite profiles of shrimp grown in intensive closed aquaculture systems, including an RAS and hybrid system, compared to those of shrimp grown in a semi-intensive, open, earthen pond system by means of non-targeted GC-MS metabolite profiling.

On the other hand, a synergistic effect on MMP9 gene expression was significantly seen in MDA-MB-231 cells treated with the combination (- 9.99 folds) in comparison with the cells treated with doxorubicin (- 3.62 folds) or paclitaxel (1.75 folds) alone. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/crenolanib-cp-868596.html Chemotherapy combinations do not always augment the molecular changes seen in each drug alone, and these changes could be utilized as treatment response markers.
Unpredictability in acquiring an adequate number of high-quality oocytes following ovarian stimulation is one of the major complications in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). Genetic predispositions of variations could alter the immunological profiles and consequently be implicated in the variability of ovarian response to the stimulation.

Uncovering the influence of variations in AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, PGR, and SERPINE1 genes with ovarian response to gonadotrophin stimulation in COH of infertile women.

Blood samples of the women with a good ovarian response (GOR) or with a poor ovarian response (POR) were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted, and gene variations were genotyped by TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays using primer-probe sets or real-time PCR Kit.

Except for PGR (rs10895068), allele distributions demonstrate that the majority of POR patients carried minor alleles of AMHR2 (rs2002555, G-allele), LHCGR (rs2293275, G-allele), MTHFR (rs1801131, C-allele, and rs1801133, T-allele), and SERPINE1 (rs1799889, 4G allele) genes compared to the GOR. Similarly, genotypes with a minor allele in AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, and SERPINE1 genes had a higher prevalence among POR patients with the polymorphic genotypes. However, further genotype stratification indicated that the minor alleles of these genes are not associated with poor response. Multivariate logistic analysis of clinical-demographic factors and polymorphic genotypes demonstrated a correlation between FSH levels and polymorphic genotypes of SERPINE1 in poor response status.

Despite a higher prevalence of AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, and SERPINE1 variations in the patients with poor ovarian response, it seems that these variations are not associated with the ovarian response.

To investigate the effect of different FSH concentrations on human oocyte maturation in vitro and its impact on gene expression of key factors in the surrounding cumulus cells.

The study included 32 patients who underwent unilateral oophorectomy for ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) (aged 28 years on average). Immature oocytes were collected from surplus medulla tissue. A total of 587 immature oocytes were divided into three categories according to the size of the cumulus mass large (L-COCs), small (S-COCs), and naked oocytes (NOs), and submitted to 44-h IVM with one of the following concentrations of recombinant FSH 0 IU/L, 20 IU/L, 40 IU/L, 70 IU/L, or 250 IU/L. After IVM, oocyte nuclear maturation stage and diameter were recorded. The relative gene expression of FSHR, LHCGR, and CYP19A1 in cumulus cells before (day 0; D0) and after IVM were evaluated.

Addition of 70 or 250 IU/L FSH to the IVM medium improved oocyte nuclear maturation compared to 0, 20, and 40 IU/L FSH by upregulating LHCGR and downregulating FSHR in the cumulus cells.

FSH improved oocyte nuclear maturation at concentrations above 70 IU/L suggesting a threshold for FSH during IVM of ex vivo collected human oocytes from small antral follicles. Moreover, current results for the first time highlight that FSH function in vitro is mediated via cumulus cells by downregulating FSHR and upregulating LHCGR, which was also observed when the immature oocytes progressed in meiosis from the GV to the MII stage.

Mammalian spermatogenesis is responsible for male fertility and is supported by the self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). Sertoli cells provide a supportive microenvironment for SSCs, in part by the production of stem cell factor (SCF), which is a potent regulator of spermatogonia proliferation and survival.

We investigated the novel role of β-estradiol in modulating the proliferation and apoptosis of fetal SSCs via the regulation of SCF secretion in Sertoli cells isolated from human fetal testes. The proliferation of SSCs in the co-culture system was determined by colony formation and BrdU incorporation assays. TUNEL assay was used to measure SSC apoptosis in co-culture in response to treatment with control, β-estradiol, or the combination of β-estradiol and the estrogen receptor inhibitor ICI 182780.

In the system with purified human fetal Sertoli cells (MIS+/c-Kit-/AP-), β-estradiol upregulated the production of SCF in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In the co-culture system of primary human fetal SSCs (c-Kit+/SSEA-4+/Oct-4+/AP+) and Sertoli cells (MIS+), β-estradiol markedly increased the proliferation of SSCs. Moreover, SSC apoptosis was significantly inhibited by β-estradiol and was completely reversed by the combination of β-estradiol and ICI 182780.

Here we report, for the first time, that β-estradiol can induce the increase of SCF expression in human fetal Sertoli cells and regulates the growth and survival of human fetal SSCs. These novel findings provide new perspectives on the current understanding of the role of estrogen in human spermatogenesis.

The risk of severe complications in group A was 12.2%, 24.4% in group B, and 31.8% in group C. In a multivariate model, low FXIII (OR 2.8), > 1 bowel anastomosis (OR 2.7), age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index ≥ 4 (OR 3.6) and a longer duration of surgery (> 285min.) were significant predictive factors for severe complications.

FXIII is associated with tumor and treatment burden. A low level of FXIII is associated with postoperative complications. The knowledge about the presurgical serum FXIII-level might be helpful to plan the treatment strategy.

This study examined the rates of unexpected birth experiences due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its association with women's postpartum mental health symptoms (depression, generalized anxiety, and PTSD).

Our cross-sectional analysis included postpartum women (N = 506) who reported on birth plan changes attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic through the PEACE (Perinatal Experiences and COVID-19 Effects)Study, an online survey that took place between May2020 and May 2021. Covariates included sociodemographic variables, number of days since the pandemic, pre-pregnancy mental health history, and protective factors such as social support, distress tolerance, and resilience.

Prevalent COVID-19 pandemic changes in the birth experience included not having support people (e.g., partners and friends) permitted to participate in the baby's delivery (33.5%), reduced access to preferred medications before or after delivery (9.7%), unavailable health care providers for the baby's birth as planned (9.6%), and other changenforming women the plans for ensuring safety may be preventive for later mental health symptomatology.Wild animal immobilization often requires high doses of α2-adrenoceptor agonists. Despite their desired sedative and analgetic effects, well-recognized cardiovascular side effects, such as hypertension and bradycardia, remain a major concern. We compared two medetomidine doses on intra-arterial blood pressure and heart rate in 13 captive, female red deer (Cervus elaphus) immobilized during winter. Each animal was randomly assigned to receive either 80 μg/kg (group L) or 100 μg/kg (group H) medetomidine, combined with 3 mg/kg tiletamine-zolazepam administered intramuscularly. Changes in cardiovascular variables over time and differences between the groups were analyzed using linear mixed-effect models. Induction time was faster in group L compared with group H; recovery time did not differ between groups. Initially, the arterial blood pressure was higher in group H compared with group L, but differences between groups diminished during anesthesia. Moreover, the decline in arterial blood pressure in group H was more rapid. Heart rate was significantly lower in group L, but bradycardia was not observed. The higher medetomidine dose did not reduce induction time, and initial hypertension was reduced by administering the lower dose. Therefore, although the sample size was small and, thus, the significance of results might be limited, we suggest using 80 μg/kg instead of 100 μg/kg medetomidine when combined with 3 mg/kg tiletamine-zolazepam for the immobilization of female red deer.Hematopoietic cell transplantation from HLA-haploidentical related donors is increasingly used to treat hematologic cancers; however, characteristics of the optimal haploidentical donor have not been established. We studied the role of donor HLA mismatching in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), disease recurrence and survival after haploidentical donor transplantation with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for 1434 acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome patients reported to the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. The impact of mismatching in the graft-versus-host vector for HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 alleles, the HLA-B leader, and HLA-DPB1 T-cell epitope (TCE) were studied using multivariable regression methods. Outcome was associated with HLA (mis)matches at individual loci rather than the total number of HLA mismatches. HLA-DRB1 mismatches were associated with lower risk of disease recurrence. HLA-DRB1-mismatching with HLA-DQB1-matching correlated with improved disease-free survival. HLA-B leader matching and HLA-DPB1 TCE-non-permissive mismatching were each associated with improved overall survival. HLA-C matching lowered chronic GVHD risk, and the level of HLA-C expression correlated with transplant-related mortality. Matching status at the HLA-B leader and HLA-DRB1, -DQB1 and -DPB1 predicted disease-free survival, as did patient and donor CMV serostatus, patient age and co-morbidity index. A web-based tool was developed to facilitate selection of the best haploidentical related donor by calculating disease-free survival based on these characteristics. In conclusion, HLA factors influence the success of haploidentical transplantation with PTCy. HLA-DRB1 and -DPB1 mismatching and HLA-C, -B leader, and -DQB1 matching are favorable. Consideration of HLA factors may help to optimize the selection of haploidentical related donors.Immune aplastic anemia (AA) features somatic loss of HLA class I allele expression on bone marrow cells, consistent with a mechanism of escape from T cell-mediated destruction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. The clinical significance of HLA abnormalities has not been well characterized. We examined somatic loss of HLA class I alleles, and correlated HLA loss and mutation-associated HLA genotypes with clinical presentation and outcomes after immunosuppressive therapy in 544 AA patients. HLA class I allele loss was detected in 92 (22%) of the 412 patients tested, in whom there were 393 somatic HLA gene mutations and 40 instances of loss of heterozygosity. Most frequently affected was HLA-B*1402, followed by HLA-A*0201, HLA-B*4002, HLA-B*0801, and HLA-B*0702. HLA-B*1402, HLA-B*4002, and HLA-B*0702 were also overrepresented in AA. High-risk clonal evolution was correlated with HLA loss, HLA-B*1402 genotype, and older age, which yielded a valid prediction model. In two patients, we traced monosomy 7 clonal evolution from preexisting clones harboring somatic mutations in HLA-A*0201 and HLA-B*4002. Loss of HLA-B*4002 correlated with higher blood counts. HLA-B*0702 and HLA-B*4001 genotypes and their loss correlated with late onset of AA. Our results suggest the presence of specific immune mechanisms of molecular pathogenesis with clinical implications. HLA genotyping and screening for HLA loss may be of value in the management of immune AA. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00001964, NCT00061360, NCT00195624, NCT00260689, NCT00944749, NCT01193283, and NCT01623167.The histone acetyltransferase HBO1 (MYST2, KAT7) is indispensable for postgastrulation development, histone H3 lysine 14 acetylation (H3K14Ac) and the expression of embryonic patterning genes. In this study, we report the role of HBO1 in regulating hematopoietic stem cell function in adult hematopoiesis. We used two complementary cre-recombinase transgenes to conditionally delete Hbo1 (Mx1-Cre and Rosa26-CreERT2). Hbo1 null mice became moribund due to hematopoietic failure with pancytopenia in the blood and bone marrow two to six weeks after Hbo1 deletion. Hbo1 deleted bone marrow cells failed to repopulate hemoablated recipients in competitive transplantation experiments. Hbo1 deletion caused a rapid loss of hematopoietic progenitors (HPCs). The numbers of lineage-restricted progenitors for the erythroid, myeloid, B-and T-cell lineages were reduced. Loss of HBO1 resulted in an abnormally high rate of recruitment of quiescent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into the cell cycle. Cycling HSCs produced progenitors at the expense of self-renewal, which led to the exhaustion of the HSC pool. Mechanistically, genes important for HSC functions were downregulated in HSC-enriched cell populations after Hbo1 deletion, including genes essential for HSC quiescence and self-renewal, such as Mpl, Tek(Tie-2), Gfi1b, Egr1, Tal1(Scl), Gata2, Erg, Pbx1, Meis1 and Hox9, as well as genes important for multipotent progenitor cells and lineage-specific progenitor cells, such as Gata1. HBO1 was required for H3K14Ac through the genome and particularly at gene loci required for HSC quiescence and self-renewal. Our data indicate that HBO1 promotes the expression of a transcription factor network essential for HSC maintenance and self-renewal in adult hematopoiesis.This review focuses on significant advances in the field of pediatric hemostasis and thrombosis, with a focus on published studies within the past decade. The evaluation and management of patients with excessive bleeding remain a cornerstone of consultative hematology. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/sodium-oxamate.html We will describe the development of validated bleeding assessment tools relevant to pediatric practice, laboratory advances in the evaluation of von Willebrand Disease, and a shift in clinical practice regarding the interpretation of normal coagulation studies in patients with significant bleeding phenotypes. There have also been critical advances in the management of hemostatic disorders. This review highlights new treatment paradigms in hemophilia and the rise of multidisciplinary medical homes for women living with bleeding disorders. Given the continued increase in the incidence of thrombosis, particularly in the hospital setting, a full call to arms against pediatric venous thromboembolism is now essential. This review will describe recently completed clinical trials of direct oral anticoagulants in children and adolescents and ongoing work to elucidate the appropriate duration of therapy for children with provoked thrombosis. Recent work regarding the prevention of pediatric venous thromboembolism is highlighted, including studies of thromboprophylaxis and the development of risk-prediction models for hospital-acquired thrombosis. Finally, we review advances in our understanding of post-thrombotic sequelae and the need for continued refinement of our evaluation tools. Despite the significant advances in pediatric hemostasis and thrombosis over the past decade, many unanswered questions remain for the next generation of investigators.Measurable residual disease (MRD) is an important biomarker in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is used for prognostic, predictive, monitoring, and efficacy-response assessments. The European LeukemiaNet (ELN) MRD working party evaluates standardization and harmonization of MRD in an ongoing manner and has updated the 2018 ELN MRD recommendations based on significant developments in the field. New and revised recommendations were established during in-person and online meetings, and a two-stage Delphi poll was conducted to optimize consensus. All recommendations are graded by levels of evidence and agreement. Major changes include technical specifications for next generation sequencing (NGS)-based MRD testing and integrative assessments of MRD irrespective of technology. Other topics include use of MRD as a prognostic and surrogate endpoint for drug testing; selection of the technique, material, and appropriate time points for MRD assessment; and clinical implications of MRD assessment. In addition to technical recommendations for flow- and molecular- MRD analysis, we provide MRD thresholds and define MRD response, and detail how MRD results should be reported and combined if several techniques are used.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has emerged as a new threat, not only to Health Care systems but also to citizen's freedom of movement in many developed countries.

We report a suicidal attempt in a destination therapy left ventricular assist device patient, potentially triggered by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown, highlighting the importance of regular and long-term psychological support for this vulnerable population.

The psychological consequences of this pandemic, particularly in chronically ill patients, are yet to be defined.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) with features resembling Kawasaki disease has been reported in association with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

We report the rare case of a 22 months old boy with a history of operated simple transposition of the great arteries (TGA), who developed features of MIS-C likely to be associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) infection and involving the coronary arteries. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac catheterization showed long-distance ectasia of both coronary arteries after their origins and an origin stenosis of the right coronary artery with a perfusion defect. The patient was treated with oral anticoagulation together with antiplatelet therapy and remains under careful monitoring.

This rare case demonstrates that also patients with TGA after the arterial switch operation (ASO) can develop coronary artery dilatation in association with MIS-C. The most interesting finding in this patient was that the origins of the reimplanted coronary arteries were not dilated. We speculate that scar tissue formation in the area of coronary artery transfer after ASO has prevented proximal coronary artery dilation.

A rare, but serious, complication following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is the occurrence of an iatrogenic ventricular septal defect (VSD).

We describe a case of an 80-year-old female who was referred with severe aortic stenosis for TAVR. Following thorough evaluation, the heart team consensus was to proceed with implantation via a transapical approach of an ACURATE neo M 25 mm valve (Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA). The valve was deployed harnessing transoesophageal echocardiographic (TOE) guidance under rapid pacing with post-dilation. Directly afterwards a very high VSD close to the aortic annulus was detected. As the patient was haemodynamically stable, the procedure was ended. The next day another TOE revealed a shunt volume (left-to-right ventricle) between 50% and 60%. Because the defect was partly located between the stent struts of the ACURATE valve decision was made to fix this leakage with implantation of a further valve and we chose an EVOLUT Pro 29 mm (Medtronic Inc., Micontrast shunt from the left-to-right ventricle (encircled).
Pulmonary artery catheter,
Pleural drain.

We suggest that an iatrogenic VSD located near the annulus may be treated percutaneously in a bail-out situation with implantation of a second valve that should be implanted slightly more into the LVOT to cover the VSD.

SSc often leads to fibrotic cutaneous involvement of the face and reduced oral aperture, with impaired food intake and oral hygiene. Oral exercises can increase oral aperture but are often hampered by low adherence rates. The aim of this mixed method study was to explore the feasibility, patient satisfaction and effectiveness of two exercise programmes in SSc-associated microstomia.

Adult patients suffering from SSc and microstomia (maximal oral aperture <40 mm) were randomized to two groups. Group A exercised with a jaw motion device (Therabite), whereas group B performed mouth-stretching exercises. Patients were expected to exercise for 10 min, three times per day for 3 months. Patients were evaluated at baseline, 3 months (period without intervention), 6 months (after 3 months of intervention) and 9 months (post-intervention). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/gcn2-in-1.html At month 6, semi-structured one-to-one interviews were conducted.

We included six women and three men, median age 60 years and median disease duration 8 years. At 6 months, all patients in group A (
 = 4) and four in group B (
 = 5) improved, with a median of 9 and 7 mm, respectively. The adherence ranged between 63.7 and 98.9% in group A and between 48.5 and 97.4% in group B. The interview revealed three themes drivers, challenges and perceived improvement.

Both interventions improved maximal oral aperture. The adherence to therapy was high, but none of the patients considered it feasible to continue practising three times per day. Future studies are needed in order to define feasible long-term exercise programmes.

However, aberrant or excessive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines is associated with uncontrolled local and systemic inflammation, resulting in cell death and often irreversible tissue damage. Uncontrolled inflammation can manifest over timescales spanning hours to years and is primarily dependent on the triggering event. Rapid and potentially lethal increase in cytokine production, or a 'cytokine storm,' develops in hours to days and is associated with cancer cell-based immunotherapies, such as CAR-T cell therapy. On the other hand, some bacterial and viral infections with high microbial replication or highly potent antigens elicit immune responses that result in supraphysiological systemic cytokine concentrations which manifest over days to weeks. Immune dysregulation in autoimmune diseases can lead to chronic cytokine-mediated tissue damage spanning months to years, which often occurs episodically.
