In austere/conflict settings, when does a complex surgery become ethically unjustifiable due to a lack of postoperative resources for managing complications?
As surgeons, we are trained to operate to solve a clinical problem. However, in severely resource-limited or conflict environments, this principle is constantly tested. Consider a scenario: A surgeon has the technical skill to perform a complex procedure (e.g., a pancreaticoduodenectomy for a tumor, or a complex limb salvage after trauma). However, the hospital lacks a reliable ICU, has inconsistent access to blood products, cannot provide parenteral nutrition, and has limited options for...

Do various CLINICIANS need to monitor Sirtuin 1 gene expression and plasma Sirtuin 1 levels with relevance to various drug therapies in patients?
Specific genes that are involved in anti-aging and epigenetics are sensitive to nutritional regulation, oxidative stress and the development of insulin resistance that can result from changes in cellular chromatin, DNA methylation and histone modifications with relevance to the global chronic disease epidemic. The defective gene in the global chronic disease epidemic has now been linked to the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1. Nutritional regulation of Sirtuin 1 is critical to nuclear...

Does the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1 need to be measured in early disease screening in COVID-19 and AIDS patients?
The defective gene in the global chronic disease epidemic has now been linked to the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1. Sirtuin 1 is now an important gene for consideration in Frontiers and Genetics. Nutritional regulation of Sirtuin 1 is critical to nuclear receptors/transcription factors that are involved with glucose homeostasis, immune system, body temperature regulation, stem cell therapy and mitochondrial biogenesis. Plasma Sirtuin 1 levels may be of critical interest to COVID-19, AIDS and the...
