The overall aim of this study is to gain greater knowledge about the risk of suicide among suicide attempters in a very long-term perspective. Specifically, to investigate possible differences in clinical risk factors at short (≤5 years) versus l…[Read more]

Ticks are hematophagous ectoparasites that have a significant impact on their animal hosts. Along with mosquitoes, they are the main arthropod vectors of disease agents in domestic animals, wildlife and humans. To investigate the occurrence and prevalence of piroplasmids in ticks, DNA was extracted from 519 hard ticks collected from 116 hunted…[Read more]

Moreover, treated animals showed a decreased oxidative stress that appears to be a consequence of a decreased mitochondrial NHE1 phosphorylation. Treated SHR showed a significant reduction in the pro-hypertrophic phosphatase calcineurin, despite slight tendency to decrease hypertrophy was detected. When SIL treatment was prolonged to three months,…[Read more]

LR was an independent risk factor for predicting RFS in T1-2N0M0 lung adenocarcinoma patients after curative surgical resection. BLR can be used as a biomarker for evaluating the risk of lung cancer recurrence.

The rapid eye movements (saccades) used to transfer gaze between targets are examples of an action. The behaviour of saccades matches that of the slow-fast model of actions originally proposed by Zeeman. Here, we extend Zeeman’s model by incorporating an accumulator that represents the increase in certainty of the presence of a target, together…[Read more]

The dynamic trajectories were analyzed by RMSD, RMSF, and Radius of Gyration (Rg) analysis; a vast difference was noticed in each of the protein structure when compared with the PPARG wild-type, and the mutations in PPARG impaired its functions, leading to more significant problems in humans. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.The effect of…[Read more]

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely accepted and prescribed in China alongside Nucleoside analogs (NAs). In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, multi-center trial, we evaluated whether entecavir (ETV) plus TCM formulas Tiao-Gan-Yi-Pi granule (TGYP) and Tiao-Gan-Jian-Pi-Jie-Du granule (TGJPJD) increase the rate of hepatitis…[Read more]

The environmental role of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) acquisition and infection in human disease has been described but not thoroughly investigated. We aimed to assess the occurrence of CPE in nearshore aquatic bodies.

Enterobacteriaceae were cultured from coastal and estuary water near Netanya, Israel in June and July…[Read more]
