Through content analysis and categorization of academic literatures, the focus in different development stages of research fields, such as research areas, issues of concern, and temporal and spatial shifts, is summarized and analyzed. This study proposes an analytical framework for the topics of electronic resources by adopting the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) posted by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) as the basis for subject classification. The study covers cancer research as a subject case to verify and compare the databases of SCImago Journal and Country Rank and the bibliographies of PubMed biomedical literatures. Through systematic collection, collation, and analysis of raw data, variables such as specific key topics, number of publications, and year of publications are segmented for statistical analysis. The findings show that cancer research is a developing trend, and the compiled information provides a diversity of study topics for informatics and information behavior research.","PeriodicalId":45072,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science","volume":"21 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68663453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we examined the inhibition of CCR5 in combination with the treatment with cyclosporine A (CsA) in chronic rejection in cardiac transplantation. Forty-five transplant recipients were randomized to three groups. Recipients in group A were treated with anti-CCR5 mAb and CsA, mice in group B were given anti-CCR5 mAb alone, and animals in group C were administered with only CsA. On day 45 after transplantation, the allografts were harvested and examined by immunohistologic technique and PT-PCR methods. Allografts treated with anti-CCR5 mAb and CsA showed significantly prolonged survival (44.73 ± 0.258 days, P < 0.01) as compared with CsA-treated group (37.00 ± 2.04 days). Treatment with anti-CCR5 mAb plus CsA significantly inhibited the progression of cardiac allograft vasculopathy. Our findings demonstrated that anti-CCR5 mAb in combination with CsA can prolong the survival of allograft through their cardio-protective and immunomodulative properties. Thus, combined administration of anti-CCR5 mAb and CsA may become a new therapeutic approach for the prevention of cardiac graft failure that has not been obviated by conventional immunosuppressive agents.</p>","PeriodicalId":45072,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2008-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85430470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
