The potential of front-face fluorescence spectroscopy coupled with chemometric techniques, namely multiple linear regression (MLR) applied on parallel factor (PARAFAC) scores and partial least squares (PLS), was tested on Lebanese olive oil samples possessing natural variability within their chemical parameters. Ninety-six olive oil samples have…[Read more]

No cases of infective endocarditis occurred. The differences in the number of infections in these study groups were not statistically significant. The application of hemocoagulase, gentamicin, hemocoagulase plus gentamicin, or normal saline on the presoaked gauze before implantation was equally effective in preventing pocket-associated…[Read more]

Due to the limited availability of mRNA analysis data, the number of exonic variants resulting in splicing impairment is underestimated although aberrant splicing correction is a promising therapeutic option to treat monogenic diseases, including choroideremia (CHM), a rare X-linked eye disorder arising from sequence alteration of the CHM gene.…[Read more]

Background Nephroptosis is a clinical condition characterized by symptoms related to an abnormal caudal movement of the kidney. During the past decade, the availability of laparoscopic surgery has led to a revival of interest in nephroptosis. Most of the traditional surgical techniques aim to achieve kidney fixation by placing triangulation…[Read more]

Obsessions – recurrent unwanted intrusive thoughts – are one of the two pillars of the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Although OCD has been reported across many different cultures, research on these cultural variations is hampered by the lack of cross-culturally sound instruments to assess intrusive thoughts. The aim of the current study is…[Read more]

For the Bassoon – PSD95 pair, treatments driving synaptic potentiation caused an increase in their coupling probability, whereas a stimulus driving synaptic depression had an opposite effect. To enrich the characterization of the synaptic cluster remodeling at the population level, we applied unsupervised machine learning approaches to include…[Read more]

Western blotting assay in peri-tumour tissue indicated that AVNP2 could control tumour-associated inflammation, thus efficiently ameliorating the local inflammatory condition and, to some extent, inhibiting angiogenesis in C6-bearing rats. In conclusion, our results suggested that AVNP2 could have an effect on the peri-tumor environment, obviously…[Read more]

MPA conjugation at the 2 position of the glyceride backbone and via an ester bond were most effective in promoting lymphatic transport. Phospholipid prodrug derivatives, or glyceride derivatives with MPA attached at the 1 position or when linked via ether, carbonate or amide bonds were poorly incorporated into lymphatic transport pathways.Baclofen…[Read more]

7 points on the Visual Analogue Scale (p<0.001). Last, but not the least, the evidence suggests a significant recovery of radiotherapy-induced tissue damage (p = 0.003) and function (p = 0.012). On average, 1.4 procedures were required to achieve the desired result. Minor complications occurred in 4.8% of the procedures.

The portal vein is occasionally invaded by advanced malignant tumors in the pancreatic head region. However, pancreatic cancer rarely has portal vein tumor thrombi. Myrcludex B order We report a case of pancreatic cancer with a massive portal vein tumor thrombus undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy with combined resection of the portal vein.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the major cause of lower respiratory tract infection in children worldwide. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a NAD+ dependent deacetylase, has been associated with induction of autophagy, reprogramming cellular metabolism, and regulating immune mediators. In this study, we investigated the role of SIRT1 in bone marrow…[Read more]

It was found that the level of experience in ballet makes for better balance. However, there are indications that classical ballet dancers become more dependent on vision to control balance compared to non-dancers.Competitive Latin formation dance, a form of dancesport, places extreme physical demands on dancers that can cause pain. Due to the…[Read more]

Cypermethrin (CYP) is a toxic manmade chemical compound belonging to pyrethroid insecticides contaminating the environment. Plantago major (PM) has numerous excellent advantages like high biomass yield and great stress tolerance, which make it able to increase the efficacy of phytoremediation. So far, no study has directly or indirectly made a…[Read more]
