This study demonstrates that the antioxidant compound Ebselen significantly ameliorates hyperglycemia, weight loss, and oxidative stress in diabetic rats exposed to Fenton reagent and Bonny light crude oil, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic agent for pollutant-exacerbated diabetes.
This study demonstrates that the Turkish adaptation of the Supportive and Palliative Care Indicators Tool (SPICT-TR) is a valid and reliable instrument for identifying patients with palliative care needs in Türkiye, showing high internal consistency and strong agreement with physician clinical assessments.
This nationwide propensity-matched cohort study in South Korea found that early-life severe or recurrent infections, quantified by frequent hospitalizations and cumulative exposure to antibacterial and antimycotic agents, are associated with an increased risk of subsequent neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, whereas antiviral exposure showed no such positive association.
This retrospective study at Military Hospital 175 in Vietnam identifies impaired consciousness, shock, metabolic derangement, coagulopathy, organ dysfunction, and a low CSF-to-blood glucose ratio as key clinical and laboratory factors associated with in-hospital mortality among patients with meningococcal infection.
This study constructs and validates a scientifically sound evaluation index system for discipline competitiveness in county-level public hospitals based on Resource-Based Theory, utilizing the Delphi method to establish a framework of 2 first-level, 6 second-level, and 36 third-level indicators that can effectively guide clinical discipline construction.
This study identifies and validates a five-gene exosome-related prognostic signature for lung adenocarcinoma, demonstrating its strong association with tumor immune microenvironment, drug sensitivity, and clinical outcomes to provide novel biomarkers for prognosis and targeted therapy.
This prospective cohort study demonstrates that in women under 35, diminished ovarian reserve is associated not only with reduced oocyte yield but also with significantly impaired oocyte morphology, lower fertilization and embryo quality rates, and decreased clinical pregnancy outcomes compared to women with normal ovarian reserve.
In a Panamanian cohort of adults with sickle cell disease, lower hemoglobin levels were associated with a reduced risk of avascular necrosis, while higher lactate dehydrogenase levels were linked to an increased risk of acute chest syndrome and avascular necrosis, highlighting the distinct yet overlapping contributions of anemia severity and hemolysis to specific clinical complications.
This case report details two Asian Indian men with markedly divergent outcomes following honeybee sting–induced ischemic stroke, illustrating the condition's complex pathophysiology and variable prognosis while emphasizing the critical need for early neurological assessment and comprehensive management in mass envenomation cases.
