7%) and chronic sacroiliitis was found in 21patients (33.3%). Sacroiliitis was higher in patients than in controls (p = 0.001). Acute sacroiliitis was more frequently observed in patients when compared with the control group (p = 0.001). Higher C‑reactive protein (CRP) concentrations (odds ratio = 1.75, 95% confidence interval 1.30-2.35; p …[Read more]

The ongoing coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), poses a threat to human health. Despite this, many affected countries are now in the process of gradual lifting of COVID-19 restrictions that were initially implemented in response to the pandemic. The success…[Read more]

The study indicates that several reasons exist for the non-dispensing of prescriptions.

Fever in combination with a rash is a presentation regularly seen in medicine. The causes clinicians must consider include infections, medications, autoimmune diseases.

A previously healthy young woman presented with a 3 to 4 day history of fever,…[Read more]

Fast radio bursts are mysterious millisecond-duration transients prevalent in the radio sky. Rapid accumulation of data in recent years has facilitated an understanding of the underlying physical mechanisms of these events. Knowledge gained from the neighbouring fields of gamma-ray bursts and radio pulsars has also offered insights. Here I review…[Read more]

Influence of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) on the healing of rabbit tibial fractures and the role of the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) signaling pathway in fracture healing were explored. Rabbit BMMSCs were isolated and cultured in vitro, and their purity was determined using flow…[Read more]

Interestingly, scission activity of proHPSE produced by immortalized endothelial cells and HEK293 cells transfected with hHPSE1 cDNA were activated by acrolein (ACR) exposure. We identified the ACR-modified amino acid residues of proHPSE using nano LC-MS/MS, suggesting that ACR modification of Lys139 (6-kDa linker), Lys107, and Lys161, located in…[Read more]
