OBJECTIVES Oncology clinical trials use a variety of clinical endpoints. Patients’ understanding of the differences between clinical endpoints is important because misperceptions of treatment efficacy may affect treatment decisions. The objective of this literature review is to find and synthesize available empirical publications assessing…[Read more]

Background Brain activity is constrained by and evolves over a network of structural and functional connections. Corticocortical evoked potentials (CCEPs) have been used to measure this connectivity and to discern brain areas involved in both brain function and disease. However, how varying stimulation parameters influences the measured CCEP…[Read more]

Further analysis showed that hypomethylation in the promoter region enhanced miR-196b-5p expression in NSCLC. Our findings indicate that QKI-5 may exhibit novel anticancer mechanisms by regulating miRNA in NSCLC, and targeting the QKI5∼miR-196b-5p∼GATA6/TSPAN12 pathway may enable effectively treating some NSCLCs.Anthrax lethal toxin (LT) is a pro…[Read more]

Gambling communities are typically forums for discussing and sharing gambling experiences, strategies, and tips as well as gambling problems, while gaming communities are inherently embedded inside a game being an essential part of the gaming experience. Identification with virtual communities influences gambling behavior and monetary gaming…[Read more]

Human mesenchymal stem cells have been explored for their application in cell-based therapies targeting stroke. Identifying cell lines that stand as safe, accessible, and effective for transplantation, while optimizing dosage, timing, and method of delivery remain critical translational steps towards clinical trials. Preclinical studies using bone…[Read more]
