There were no treatment-related deaths during induction and 2 following ASCT. Among 87 response-evaluable patients, the end-of-induction overall and complete response rates were 97% and 90%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 33 months, 3-year progression-free survival and overall survival were 83% and 92%, respectively. Patients undergoing…[Read more]

Upon ATRA-TCP treatment, we observed significant induction of retinoic acid-target genes in responders but not nonresponders. We corroborated this in AML cell lines, showing that ATRA-TCP synergistically increased differentiation capacity and cell death by regulating the expression of key gene sets that segregate patients by their clinical…[Read more]

PURPOSE Transabdominal pre-peritoneal hernia repair (TAPP) is a worldwide performed surgery. Surgical videos about TAPP uploaded on the web, with YouTube being the most frequently used platform, may have an educational purpose, which, however, remains unexplored. This study aims to evaluate the 20 most viewed YouTube videos on TAPP through the…[Read more]

We found EqPV-H shedding in oral and nasal secretions, and in feces. Importantly, we could demonstrate EqPV-H transmission via oral inoculation with viremic serum. Together, our findings provide additional information that EqPV-H is the likely cause of Theiler’s disease and that transmission of EqPV-H occurs via both iatrogenic and natural…[Read more]

714, respectively. In addition, a gene set enrichment analysis confirmed that cancer-related and autophagy-related pathways were significantly up-regulated in the high-risk group. In summary, this study has demonstrated that a signature comprising five autophagy-related lncRNAs has potential as an independent prognostic indicator of endometrial…[Read more]

Therefore, biofilms not only intensified the vector role of microplastics in the migration of heavy metals in freshwater, but also enhanced their combined toxicity, which may have further potential ecological risks to freshwater ecosystems.Thermal treatment can not only efficiently remove volatile pollutants but also distinctly alter the…[Read more]

© The author(s).The anti-angiogenic drugs represented by sorafenib over the years have always been the first-line treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the drug resistance has always been a “bottleneck” in curative effect. Vorinostat Recently, aberrant expression of circular RNA (circRNA) is considered to play a crucial role in many…[Read more]

In the presence of serine, either nuclear volume or magnetic isotope effects were observed depending on the wavelength of light and the extent of Hg(II) complexation by serine. In the presence of ethylenediamine, MIF was negative. Our Hg stable isotope results suggest that MDF and MIF are induced at different steps in the overall photochemical…[Read more]

The study resulted in 32 passages of equivalent difficulty for listeners with normal hearing.van der Waals (vdW) semiconductors are attractive for highly scaled devices and heterogeneous integration as they can be isolated into self-passivated, two-dimensional (2D) layers that enable superior electrostatic control. These attributes have led to…[Read more]

Altogether, these findings provide the rationale to further investigate the potential actions of HCT and PR extracts against breast cancer in vivo.Fruit and vegetable consumption may protect against sarcopenia but there are no studies on this topic from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Thus, we assessed this association among older adults…[Read more]
