The tube ends were tied and anchored at internal valve of the nostril to maintain the traction tension. Medial lower lid notching (>2 mm width), epiphora, and conjunctival injection were evaluated and compared in the 2 groups.Patients with traction technique showed symmetric medial canthal angle and minimized lower lid notching deformity when c…[Read more]

The transformation of agrochemicals into herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs) has been suggested as a solution to problems associated with commercial forms of herbicides. The aim of this review was to summarize the latest progress in the field of HILs, including their synthesis as well as physicochemical and biological properties, and to address the…[Read more]

Hand hygiene (HH) is the simplest and the most fundamental means of hospital-acquired infection (HAI) prevention in both hospitals and long-term care facilities (LTCFs) which differ as to their structure, organization and epidemiology. The objective of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of, and attitudes towards, compliance with the HH…[Read more]

Harvey Cushing is considered the father of neurosurgery, not just for his work within the United States, but also for his global influence through international visitors and trainees. Starting in 1920, the neurosurgical clinic at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital in Boston, led by Cushing, trained surgeons from all over the globe, many of whom…[Read more]

BACKGROUND There is limited knowledge about morphological molecular-imaging-derived parameters to further characterize hemodynamically relevant coronary lesions. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe and differentiate specific parameters between hemodynamically significant and non-significant coronary lesions using various invasive and…[Read more]

Fasciola hepatica is the causative agent of fasciolosis, a worldwide distributed zoonotic disease, leading to hepatitis in humans and livestock. Newly excysted juveniles (NEJ) of F. hepatica are the first invasive stages to encounter leukocytes of host innate immune system in vivo. Among leukocytes, polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are the most…[Read more]

l haemodynamics and maternal and neonatal outcomes in women and mice with OAPS. A role for eNOS/NO in mediating the placental vasculoprotective effects in OAPS-mice was demonstrated, strengthening the concept that impaired NO production is a crucial mediator in the pathogenesis of OAPS and a potential target for pharmacological interventions. The…[Read more]

STS-135 was extensively metabolized in HLMs and HIMs. Screening assays indicated CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 could be responsible for STS-135’s oxidation. CPI-455 in vivo Through incubations with genotyped HLMs, CYP3A4 was identified as the primary oxidative enzyme. Interestingly, CYP2J2, a P450 isoform expressed in cardiovascular tissues, showed high…[Read more]

Sarcoidosis is a rare multisystem disease characterized histologically by non-caseating granuloma formation in the affected organ. While cardiac sarcoidosis is found on autopsy in up to 25% of sarcoidosis cases, it is still underdiagnosed and is associated with a poor prognosis. Although the etiology of sarcoidosis remains unclear, an antigen…[Read more]

The resistance of IL191 (Rmg8/-) to the eI carriers was maintained even at the heading stage and at the higher temperature. In addition, GR119 (Rmg8/RmgGR119) displayed higher levels of resistance than IL191 at this stage. These results suggest that Rmg8 combined with RmgGR119 will be useful in breeding for resistance against wheat blast in…[Read more]
