?Changes in mitochondrial stability during the progression of the Barrett?s esophagus sequence?.
(2016)
Phelan, James
Abstract:
Background: Barrett?s esophagus follows the classic step-wise progression of metaplasia-dysplasia-adenocarcinoma. While Barrett?s esophagus is a leading known risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma, the pathogenesis of this disease sequence is poorly understood. Mitochondria are highly susceptible to mutations due to high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) coupled with low levels of DNA repair. The timing and levels of mitochondria instability and dysfunction across the Barrett?s disease progression is under studied. Methods: Using an in-vitro model representing the Barrett?s esophagus disease sequence of normal squamous epithelium (HET1A), metaplasia (QH), dysplasia (Go), and esophageal adenocarcinoma (OE33), random mitochondrial mutations, deletions and surrogate markers of mitochondrial function were assessed. In-vivo and ex-vivo tissues were also assessed for instability profiles. Results: Barrett?s metaplastic cells demonstrated increased levels of ROS (p?<?0.005) an...

Phelan, James
Abstract:
Objectives: This study examines the relationship between synovial hypoxia and cellular bioenergetics with synovial inflammation. Methods: Primary rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RASF) were cultured with hypoxia, dimethyloxalylglycine (DMOG) or metabolic intermediates. Mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial DNA mutations, cell invasion, cytokines, glucose and lactate were quantified using specific functional assays. RASF metabolism was assessed by the XF24-Flux Analyzer. Mitochondrial structural morphology was assessed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In vivo synovial tissue oxygen (tpO2 mmHg) was measured in patients with inflammatory arthritis (n=42) at arthroscopy, and markers of glycolysis/oxidative phosphorylation (glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), PKM2, GLUT1, ATP) were quantified by immunohistology. A subgroup of patients underwent contiguous MRI and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT imaging. RASF and human dermal microvascular endot...

?Examining the connectivity between different cellular processes in the Barrett tissue microenvironment: energy metabolism, hypoxia, inflammation, p53 and obesity?.
(2016)
Phelan, James
Abstract:
In Barrett associated tumorigenesis, oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis are reprogrammed early in the disease sequence and act mutually to promote disease progression. However, the link between energy metabolism and its connection with other central cellular processes within the Barrett microenvironment is unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between metabolism (ATP5B/GAPDH), hypoxia (HIF1?), inflammation (IL1?/SERPINA3), p53 and obesity status using in-vivo and ex-vivo models of Barrett oesophagus. At the protein level, ATP5B (r?=?0.71, P?<?0.0001) and p53 (r?=?0.455, P?=?0.015) were found to be strongly associated with hypoxia. In addition, levels of ATP5B (r?=?0.53, P?=?0.0031) and GAPDH (r?=??0.39, P?=?0.0357) were positively associated with p53 expression. Moreover, we demonstrate that ATP5B (r?=?0.8, P?<?0.0001) and GAPDH (r?=?0.43, P?=?0.022) were positively associated with IL1? expression. Interestingly, obesity was negatively associated...

How to Foster PPI With Those Excluded From Public Involvement Itself?
(2018)
Dinsmore, John
Abstract:
Background While there is encouragement of public involvement in the development of health interventions and healthcare issues, PPI seeks to go a step further with this involvement ?with recognition of the need to engage citizens not only in providing feedback on health-care delivery or interventions, but in processes whereby decisions are made...? (Baxter, Clowes, Muir et al., 2016). But what happens to those citizens who find themselves socially excluded from their healthcare needs? One such group is our homeless population. This presentation, drawing upon previous research on health seeking behaviours of homeless individuals (N? Cheallaigh, Cullivan, Sears, et al., 2017), will challenge PPI to go further in how it seeks to understand involvement. We argue that a way of achieving this is through applying experience- centred design (ECD), which gives ?...people the chance to have a richer life, to include people who otherwise feel excluded, and to ensure that everybody has a chance...

?Protein kinase C beta II suppresses colorectal cancer by regulating IGF-1 mediated cell survival?.
(2016)
Phelan, James
Abstract:
Despite extensive efforts, cancer therapies directed at the Protein Kinase C (PKC) family of serine/threonine kinases have failed in clinical trials. These therapies have been directed at inhibiting PKC and have, in some cases, worsened disease outcome. Here we examine colon cancer patients and show not only that PKC Beta II is a tumour suppressor, but patients with low levels of this isozyme have significantly decreased disease free survival. Specifically, analysis of gene expression levels of all PKC genes in matched normal and cancer tissue samples from colon cancer patients revealed a striking down-regulation of the gene coding PKC Beta in the cancer tissue (n = 21). Tissue microarray analysis revealed a dramatic down-regulation of PKC Beta II protein levels in both the epithelial and stromal diseased tissue (n = 166). Of clinical significance, low levels of the protein in the normal tissue of patients is associated with a low (10%) 10 year survival compared with a much higher (...

?The role of energy metabolism in driving disease progression in inflammatory, hypoxic and angiogenic microenvironments'.
(2015)
Phelan, James
Abstract:
Cellular metabolism plays a crucial role in primed inflammatory, hypoxic and angiogenic microenvironments by supporting disease progression in a range of disease entities. To adapt to fluctuating stress-induced microenvironments, pre-neoplastic and neoplastic tissue must utilise a diverse range of molecular mediators to alter their metabolism. Despite being widely documented to play independent roles in disease prevalence, these complex processes exploit a range of key cellular components that act in tandem to restore metabolic equilibrium. Therefore, this review examines the primary molecular mechanisms linking energy metabolism with inflammation, hypoxia and angiogenesis. Furthermore, the review considers a diverse range of conventional and novel mediators that link energy metabolism and hypoxia. Moreover, to investigate their reciprocal relationship and the mechanisms employed to execute their functional effect in greater detail, the roles of glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylat...

'Altered Mitochondrial Function and Energy Metabolism Is Associated with a Radioresistant Phenotype in Oesophageal Adenocarcinoma'.
(2014)
Phelan, James
Abstract:
Neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is increasingly the standard of care for locally advanced oesophageal cancer. A complete pathological response to CRT is associated with a favourable outcome. Radiation therapy is important for local tumour control, however, radioresistance remains a substantial clinical problem. We hypothesise that alterations in mitochondrial function and energy metabolism are involved in the radioresistance of oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC). To investigate this, we used an established isogenic cell line model of radioresistant OAC. Radioresistant cells (OE33 R) demonstrated significantly increased levels of random mitochondrial mutations, which were coupled with alterations in mitochondrial function, size, morphology and gene expression, supporting a role for mitochondrial dysfunction in the radioresistance of this model. OE33 R cells also demonstrated altered bioenergetics, demonstrating significantly increased intracellular ATP levels, which was attrib...

'Living with intimate partner violence' A literature review of pregnant women's experiences.
(2017)
Panda, Sunita
Abstract:
Pregnancy brings joy to most women?s lives. However, some women do not enjoy their pregnancy, due to physical and/or emotional health problems, or social circumstances such as being in a relationship characterised by intimate partner violence (IPV). The aim of this review is to explore women?s experiences of pregnancy and being in a relationship with IPV. The electronic databases PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Web of Science were searched in June 2015 for related qualitative studies. Twelve studies, including 157 participants, were identified and included in this review. Four themes emerged from the data: 1) Feeling trapped/fear around disclosure and uncertainty, 2) Adapting and changing, 3) Protecting the unborn and 4) Hope and faith. In order to provide support to these women, midwives need to know how to identify women living with IPV, and how to help them through information and formal social support networks.

'Stuck between a Rock and a Hard Place?: How Mental Health Nurses? Experience Psychosocial interventions in Irish Mental Health Care Settings
(2020)
De Vries, Jan; Mc Cann, Edward
Abstract:
Traditionally, the focus for mental health service delivery in Ireland has involved a medically orientated approach. This research has taken place at a time when mental health professionals are now assumed to provide recovery-orientated care by statute as well as policy. Within a recovery practice, psychosocial interventions (PSI) are recognised and recommended internationally as they primarily focus on improving a client?s mental health and preventing relapse, thus adopting a biopsychosocial approach. This study explored trained MHNs? experiences of using PSI in their care of persons with a mental health problem. Consistent with the goal of understanding experience, a multiple case study methodology guided the study and situated within an interpretive paradigm. Data were gathered using semi-structured interviews with 40 PSI-trained MHNs and analysed thematically. Three overarching themes emerged: PSI-trained MHNs? understandin...

'We are all like a family here’: Qualitative insights on the role of youth cafés in supporting the health and well-being of young people
(2017)
Brady, Bernadine; Moran, Lisa; Forkan, Cormac
Abstract:
While there have been many positive policy developments for young people in Ireland over recent decades – including increased access to and participation in education – issues related to the well-being of young people are matters of public concern. Ireland has one of the highest rates of youth suicide in the European Union (PISA, 2015), while recent research demonstrated that one in three young people had elevated levels of emotional distress (Dooley and Fitzgerald, 2013). Research with young people shows that the social resources available to them are critical in terms of their ability to negotiate the challenges of modern life. In particular, supportive relationships with at least ‘one good adult’ remain critical to the well-being and transitions of young people (Dooley and Fitzgerald, 2013; Thomson, 2007). Community based supports and services are widely accepted as having a key role to play in ensuring the safe and healthy development of young people (DCYA, 2015).

Abstract:
Since the initial breakthroughs in the 1960’s and 70’s that led to the development of the glucose biosensor, the oxygen electrode, ion-selective electrodes, and electrochemical/optochemical diagnostic devices, the vision of very reliable, affordable chemical sensors and bio-sensors capable of functioning autonomously for long periods of time (years), and providing access to continuous streams of real-time data remains unrealized. This is despite massive investment in research and the publication of many thousands of papers in the literature. It is over 40 years since the first papers proposing the concept of the artificial pancreas, by combining the glucose electrode with an insulin pump. Yet even now, there is no chemical sensor/biosensor that can function reliably inside the body for more than a few days, and such is the gap in what can be delivered (days), and what is required (minimum 10 years) for implantable devices, it is not surprising that in health diagnostics, the overw...

‘Cast back into the Dark Ages of Medicine’? The Challenge of Antimicrobial Resistance
(2015)
Ó Gráda, Cormac
Abstract:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is currently the focus of much media attention and policy discussion. A historical perspective on AMR suggests that although the challenge of AMR is real, the doomsday tone of most commentary is unwarranted. That is partly because most of the gains in life expectancy now deemed under threat preceded the antibiotics revolution. A combination of public health measures, rising living standards, and new medical knowledge all played their part in this. Even if AMR increases, the continuing effect of these factors and of new public health measures can limit the negative consequences. Moreover, recent developments suggest that the supply pipeline of new drugs is not quite as dry as usually claimed. The problem for now is not MRSA or malaria but carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria, which pose an urgent threat and on which public funding for research on effective new therapies should concentrate.

Abstract:
? The nature and presentation of oropharyngeal dysphagia exists as a multifaceted entity. However, the effects of the disorder are often cited as the physical manifestation with which it is associated. ? Current guidelines highlight the importance of holistic, person-centred care, and consideration of not only the physical effects, but also the psychosocial impact of dysphagia on the individual [1]. ? Research in the area has confirmed that the effects of dysphagia cannot be confined to physiological elements of the condition, in that it affects day-to-day life, and overall quality of life [2]. ? With the effects of dysphagia being apparent in a person?s everyday routine and indeed, social situations, the family unit are also affected by the psychosocial impact of dysphagia [3]. ? As such, the current study explored the lived experience of oropharyngeal dysphagia on family members who support those living with the diagnosis.

Abstract:
Here we present the fabrication and the performance of a novel, wearable, robust, flexible and disposable micro-fluidic device which incorporates miniature optical components as a detection system, for wireless monitoring in real time mode of sweat pH during an exercise session. This micro-fluidic platform is completely non-invasive, with the great advantage of providing a continuous flow of fresh sweat for continuous real time analysis, ensuring immediate feedback regarding sweat composition to an athlete and/or coach. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first wearable and wireless micro-fluidic device suitable for real time analysis and reporting of the wearer’s physiological state.

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of this longitudinal study examined, first, whether people with multiple sclerosis who previously advocated for angioplasty to treat chronic cerebral spinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) through YouTube continued reporting benefits. Second, it examined a new cohort reporting on CCSVI treatment, and third, whether perspectives have changed. Method: YouTube videos from August 2011 to January 2019 related to CCSVI were retrieved. Once retrieved, all videos were compiled, classified and analyzed. Categorical data were reported and a pre-determined code-book was used to code videos. Data from the videos were extracted and analyzed using discourse analysis. Results: 1293 videos related to CCSVI were uploaded by 54 people with multiple sclerosis who met the inclusion criteria. YouTube videos uploaded by people with multiple sclerosis have shifted in volume and message. The initial surge in interest in CCSVI treatment has diminished, but there still exists strong a...

Abstract:
Introduction: Research shows that PwD and their carers often do not receive the type, quality and amount of support needed from health and social care services. This study, part of the Access to Timely Care (Actifcare) JPND-funded project, aimed to identify the (un)met needs of Irish people with dementia (PwD) living at home and to compare these to needs assessments from a family caregiver and an independent Actifcare researcher. Theory/Methods: Forty-three PwD (22 female, mean age 74.05, mean MMSE 20.34) and family caregiver (33 female, mean age 58.12) dyads participated. The Camberwell Assessment of Need for the Elderly (CANE) was completed at baseline, 6-months and 12-months. All raters reported met and unmet need. Caregivers and researchers also reported formal and informal supports received. Additional measures included: Quality of life (Qol-AD, ICECAP-O, Carer-QoL), Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPI-Q) and carer perseverance. Results: PwD perceived fewer met needs at baseline (...
