Does admission ambulation velocity predict length of stay and discharge disposition following stroke in an acute rehabilitation hospital?
Admission ambulation velocity can predict length of stay and discharge disposition poststroke. This effect is independent of age and admission total FIM score.
TNF-alpha and IL-1beta separately and synergistically depress human myocardial function. Sphingosine likely participates in the TNF-alpha and IL-1beta signal leading to human myocardial functional depression. Therapeutic strategies to reduce production or signaling of either TNF-alpha or IL-1beta may limit myocardial dysfunction in sepsis.
