In the subgroup of patients with a high ultrafiltration rate (UFR; mean UFR ≥10 mL/kg/h), there were significantly increased ventricular events and ST-segment changes in Phase 2. In conclusion, ECG changes were associated with the dialysis cycle, significantly in the 12-h after early-week HD sessions. These may be associated with low dialysate o…[Read more]

Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) causes an acute and highly contagious disease in domestic and wild small ruminants throughout the world, mainly by invoking immunosuppression in its natural hosts. It has been suggested that the non-structural C protein of PPRV helps in evading host responses but the molecular mechanisms by which it…[Read more]

Regorafenib has been approved among the treatment options for patients with advanced stage colorectal cancer (CRC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). In this study, we aim to report the real-life experience of the safety and tolerability regorafenib in our institution.

We conducted a retrospective…[Read more]

The respiratory epithelium is the initial point of host contact for inhaled particles, leading to orchestrated, but highly heterogeneous, responses. Human airway epithelial cells (AECs) play a crucial role in host defense by promoting uptake and killing of inhaled microorganisms and concomitant cytokine production in order to recruit professional…[Read more]

Various skin manifestations have been reported in coronavirus disease. It may be difficult to determine the etiology of these lesions in view of the increased frequency of handwashing during the pandemic, along with occurrences of irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis due to disinfectant use; usage of herbal medicine and…[Read more]

DNA sequencing technologies provide unprecedented opportunities to analyze within-host evolution of microorganism populations. Often, within-host populations are analyzed via pooled sequencing of the population, which contains multiple individuals or “haplotypes.” However, current next-generation sequencing instruments, in conjunction with…[Read more]
