Epidemiological studies suggest a relationship between vitamin D deficiency and erectile dysfunction (ED). We hypothesized that vitamin D deficiency or vitamin D receptor (VDR) knockout caus...
Background/needTraditional bone depth gauges are notoriously inaccurate tools, often used in head and neck surgery, that estimate the screw length needed for fracture fixation after bicortic...
Total knee arthroplasty is a spreading surgery, mainly indicated in severe osteoarthritis patients. The anthropometric features of the prosthesis are one of the main factors affecting the su...
Altered states of consciousness (ASCs), induced e.g. during psychedelic-assisted therapy, show potential to treat prevalent mental health disorders like depression and posttraumatic stress d...
Endodontic treatment failures are predominantly attributed to Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) infection, a Gram-positive coccus. E. faecalis forms biofilms, resist multiple antibiotics, ...
The prognosis of ground glass opacity featured lung adenocarcinomas (GGO-LUAD) is significantly better than that of solid nodule featured lung adenocarcinomas (SN-LUAD), but the underlying r...
Low body mass index (BMI) is a prognostic factor, and skeletal muscle adiposity may affect mortality irrespective of BMI in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Howeve...
Juvenile Paget disease (JPD) is a very rare disease, mainly caused by biallelic inactivating mutations in the TNFRSF11B gene that encodes osteoprotegerin. Owing to its rarity, the treatment ...
In clear aligner treatment (CAT), closure of the premolar space is achieved by reducing aligner length. Posterior anchorage preparation is effective in preserving molar angulation; however, ...
Scoliosis considerably affects adolescents' physical well-being and quality of life. Current research offers scant data concerning the correlation between abnormal posture, screen time, phys...
This study investigated static and dynamic pupillometry changes before and after ICL V4c implantation under varying light conditions. A prospective study of 210 high myopia patients undergoi...
The performance of global large language models (LLMs), trained largely on Western data, for disease in other settings and languages is unknown. Taking myopia as an illustration, we evaluate...
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy characterized by complex immune microenvironment. This study aims to identify immune-related prognostic biomarkers in AML.Multiple ...
Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) is a rare hematological malignancy in adults but children. Alternative splicing (AS) has been shown to affect hematological cancer progression, making ...
Chemoresistance is the most significant challenge affecting the clinical efficacy of the treatment of patients with gastric cancer (GC). Here we reported that transmembrane protein 160 (TMEM...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive Grade IV brain tumor with a poor prognosis. It results from genetic mutations, epigenetic changes, and factors within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Tr...
Recently, we found, using a cigarette carcinogen-induced lung cancer model, that soy protein isolate (SPI) was superior to casein in preventing lung cancer. In this study, we have attempted ...
Birth weight (BW) is a key indicator of a newborn's health, survival, and development. It is associated with the risk of childhood mortality and is also related to health, physical growth, e...
Olaparib, an inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), has demonstrated promising outcomes in treating HER2-negative early-stage breast cancer with BRCA mutations. However, a compreh...
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is increasingly recognized as a driver of cancer progression; however, the precise molecular mechanisms by which ER stress facilitates tumor metastasis rema...
