Periodontitis development arises from the intricate interplay between bacterial biofilms and host's immune response, where macrophages serve pivotal roles in defense tissue homeostasis. Here, we uncover mitigative effect of copper chelator Tetrathiomolybdate (TTM) on periodontitis through inhibiting cuproptosis, a newly identified form cell death which is dependent copper. Our study reveals concurrent cuproptosis macrophage marker within murine models. In response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)...
This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of various exercise interventions in enhancing quality life for breast cancer survivors. To achieve this, randomized controlled trials were identified from major electronic databases, focusing on relationship between and The primary outcome was impact 12 weeks after intervention, with a secondary comparing dropout rates intervention groups regular care control group. protocol registered INPLASY (INPLASY202340007). A network meta-analysis nine...
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active visceral fat, which secretes inflammatory cytokines and adipokines. In this study, our aim was to examine measurements of EAT thickness by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could best help differentiate status, classified levels high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), in obese men with metabolic syndrome (MetS). We prospectively enrolled 32 central obesity (waist circumference ≥90 cm) at least two other MetS criteria. MRI...
The international construction industry has long experienced high rates of occupational incidents resulting in serious injury and death. rate fatal accidents clearly highlighted the importance urgency safety management improvement for building sites. This paper analyzed 33 nominated success factors site (SSM) projects using Principle Components Analysis (PCA) to extract (SFs) SSM Taiwan. internal relationships among these SFs were further explored Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) examine...
The objective of our study was to evaluate whether iodixanol 320 mg I/mL (iodixanol 320), with the highest iodine concentration dimeric nonionic contrast agents on market, results in decreased vascular or myocardial enhancement compared iohexol 350 (iohexol 350).During a 4-month period, 72 patients referred for cardiac MDCT were consecutively enrolled and randomized into two groups: 320. injection scanning protocols same both groups. Enhancement right heart, left coronary arteries,...
The essay describes the protocol for and interpretation of MDCT scans in evaluation patients after insertion an Amplatzer septal occluder.In anatomic regions that cannot be confidently evaluated with transthoracic echocardiography, is useful evaluating occluders protrusion, migration, residual shunt. Radiologists should familiar imaging interpretation.
