Incidence of viral pneumonia has been reported in several patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The infection has also been linked to the development of inflammatory syndromes and related clinical manifestations.

The present study discusses four cases of COVID infection showing varying clinical features. The post-COVID inflammation syndrome…[Read more]

Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) has been implicated in the risk of several cancers, but establishing a causal relationship is often challenging. Although ATM single-nucleotide polymorphisms have been linked to melanoma, few functional alleles have been identified. Therefore, ATM impact on melanoma predisposition is unclear.

From 22…[Read more]

We report an enantio- and diastereoselective, complete hydrogenation of multiply substituted benzofurans in a one-pot cascade catalysis. The developed protocol facilitates the controlled installation of up to six new defined stereocenters and produces architecturally complex octahydrobenzofurans, prevalent in many bioactive molecules. A unique…[Read more]

163, p=0.014), and age (r=0.212, p=0.002), and a negative relationship between knowledge and age (r=-0.139, p=0.040). These findings have significant implications that most primary health professionals in Macao had sufficient knowledge, a positive attitude and appropriate preventive practice on dementia care. However, enhanced dementia education…[Read more]

gests no significant association of overall or MVA-free survival with ECG parameters reflecting TDR (TpTe, TpTec) in patients with systolic dysfunction after MI and ICD implanted for primary prevention.

This study suggests no significant association of overall or MVA-free survival with ECG parameters reflecting TDR (TpTe, TpTec) in patients…[Read more]

Furthermore, in the rifampicin-sensitive group, the probability of recovery decreased with advancing age with a significant drop above the age of 60 years. The effect of age is negligible in the rifampicin-resistant group. We also found that type 2 diabetes mellitus has a negative effect on recovery. Coagulase-negative Staphylococci were…[Read more]

Mild adverse events related to poly-ICLC were observed in 10 of the 14 patients. The data showed that intratumoral poly-ICLC therapy was well tolerated in dogs with advanced cancers, with clinical benefit and improved QL scores observed in some dogs.Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare disease with autosomal recessive inheritance, caused…[Read more]

With the underlying rationale that social identification is related to psychological health and well-being, we aimed to understand how social connections and group structure within college club sport teams relate to students’ perceptions of social identification.

We sampled 852 student-athletes from 35 intact same-sex college club sport…[Read more]

Background Prescription of post-match or post-training recovery strategies in young soccer players is a key point to optimize soccer performance. Considering that the effectiveness of recovery strategies may present interindividual variability, scientific evidence-based recovery methods and protocols used in adults are possibly not applicable to…[Read more]

This suggests that a hard limit of ∼1 kcal/mol numerical accuracy and an R ∼ 0.5 trend accuracy exists and that new features, such as account of unfolded states, water colocalization, and amino acid correlations, are required to improve accuracy to, e.g., 1/2 kcal/mol.The redox state of the metallomonooxygenases is finely tuned by imposing spe…[Read more]

They activated the Grueneberg ganglion neurons and induced fear-related behaviours in mice. Identification of new sources of semiochemicals is a first step towards an understanding of the interspecies danger communication that takes place in the Grueneberg ganglion.Lower than expected arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) continues to be an unresolved…[Read more]

Significant correlations of CTRCD included treatment with trastuzumab (P = 0.001) or pertuzumab (P < 0.001), lower baseline global longitudinal strain (GLS) (P = 0.016), increased left ventricular end systolic diameter (P < 0.001), and lower e’ septal (P < 0.001).

CTRCD is an important concern among patients with active breast cancer,…[Read more]

500 patients will be recruited over a two year period. Baseline assessments will be recorded. At the end of the 6-month follow-up period, toxicity data will be retrospectively collected. A descriptive analysis of the recruited population will be performed. check details The validity of the CARG model will be analysed using receiver-operating…[Read more]
