Factors Associated With Treatment Non-Completion Among Adolescents and Young People With Substance Use Disorders in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: A Systematic Review

This systematic review of five studies from Brazil, Mexico, and Türkiye reveals that while family involvement and school engagement may support treatment retention for adolescents with substance use disorders in low- and middle-income countries, the evidence base remains geographically limited, methodologically heterogeneous, and sparse regarding key regions like Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Olive and Avocado Oils Ameliorate Lipid Profiles and Hepatocellular Effect in High-Fat-Diet Rats: An In Vivo and In Silico Study

This study demonstrates that the combined administration of olive and avocado oils effectively ameliorates high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemia and liver dysfunction in rats, a finding supported by molecular docking evidence showing strong binding of their bioactive compounds to HMG-CoA reductase.

Live ,the Liver Life: From equations to allocation: a wave-form prior for early planning of hepatitis C screening under NVHCP and the WHO 2030 strategy

This paper proposes a wave-form prior framework that leverages a latitudinal envelope to transport prevalence data from a known location to Varanasi, enabling early, cost-effective planning for Hepatitis C screening under India's NVHCP and WHO 2030 goals by quantifying the value of initial estimates while cautioning that such priors serve best as starting specifications rather than precise district-level maps.

Epidemiological characteristics of six common respiratory pathogen infections in children in Tongren, China

This retrospective study of 11,910 pediatric patients in Tongren, China, reveals that human rhinovirus is the most prevalent respiratory pathogen overall, while infection rates for influenza A, B, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae increase with age, and distinct seasonal peaks exist for each of the six common pathogens, highlighting the need for age- and season-specific prevention strategies.

Clinical Analysis of Rare Chylous Mesenteric Cyst in Children

This retrospective study of eight pediatric patients demonstrates that while preoperative diagnosis of chylous mesenteric cysts remains challenging, laparoscopic surgery—either via cyst excision or en bloc resection—proves to be a safe and effective treatment option with favorable short- and medium-term outcomes.

Cannabidiol attenuates kidney injury and mitochondrial calcium dysregulation in experimental cardiorenal syndrome.

This study demonstrates that cannabidiol attenuates kidney injury in experimental cardiorenal syndrome by normalizing mitochondrial calcium dysregulation and restoring respiratory function, independent of blood pressure reduction.

Preventive anti-inflammatory and osteoprotective effects of the FAAH inhibitor URB597 in a rat model of LPS-induced periodontitis

Topical application of the FAAH inhibitor URB597 exerts significant preventive anti-inflammatory and osteoprotective effects in a rat model of LPS-induced periodontitis by reducing alveolar bone loss, inflammatory mediators (TNFα and PGE2), and MMP activity.

Lung Scintigraphy for Suspected Pulmonary Embolism During Pregnancy: Fetal Radiation Dose and Pregnancy, Neonatal, and Childhood Outcomes

This retrospective study of 44 pregnant patients suggests that lung scintigraphy for suspected pulmonary embolism delivers a low fetal radiation dose and is associated with generally reassuring pregnancy and childhood outcomes, though definitive conclusions about long-term safety are limited by the small sample size and lack of a control group.

Variability in Resting Oxygen Consumption Estimation in Adult Patients After Fontan Operation

This study demonstrates that in adult Fontan patients, resting oxygen consumption (rVO₂) varies significantly depending on the estimation method, with indirect calorimetry providing the most accurate values and predictive equations or CPET-derived estimates potentially leading to substantial errors in hemodynamic calculations like pulmonary vascular resistance.
