With improved molecular characterization of clear cell renal cancer and advances in texture analysis as well as machine learning, diagnostic radiology is primed to enter personalized medicine with radiogenomics: the identification of relationships between tumor image features and underlying genomic expression. By devel…

Bundles that define mandatory items or procedures to be performed in clinical practice have been increasingly used in guidelines in recent years. Observance of bundles enables improvement of the prognosis of target diseases as well as guideline preparation. There were no bundles adopted in the Tokyo Guidelines 2007, bu…

OBJECTIVE: Tissue iron plays an important role in the development of certain diseases. Although it is one of biogenic elements, its excess induces the reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation. The aim of the present work is to examine the protection against free or loosely bound iron from the view of morphology and chem…

UNLABELLED: In Chile, it is estimated that over 38,000 people live with Human Immunodeficiency Virus [HIV]. In 2001, there were 1092 Chilean women living with HIV, and in 2006 there were 7,600, further affecting low income populations. These findings reveal the necessity to create prevention strategies directed towards…

Due to the exponential increase in the quantity and quality of podiatric medicine-related research during the past decade, podiatric physicians are inundated with an insurmountable volume of research relevant to clinical practice. Systematic reviews can refine this literature by using explicit, rigorous, and reproducib…

The Korean Society of Epidemiology publishes a scholarly journal titled 'Korean Journal of Epidemiology', which announces and discusses the results of epidemiological studies from the past 30 yr. Since its first publication in 1979, the journal has contributed to the advancement of epidemiology as well as the preventio…

In order to increase the rate of drug discovery, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies spend billions of dollars a year assembling research databases. Current trends still indicate a falling rate in the discovery of New Molecular Entities (NMEs). It is widely accepted that the data need to be integrated in order f…

alpha-Protein growth fraction (AGF) eliminates the 60- to 90-day adaptive phase required to establish actively growing cultures of HeLa (Gey), human heart (Girardi), KB (Eagle) and other established cell lines in serum-free chemically defined medium A3. AGF is effective at less than 0.4 microgram per ml. By using the p…

BACKGROUND: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative condition causing pain, affecting mobility, and quality of life. As muscle weakness worsens in KOA, this review evaluates the effectiveness of quadriceps strengthening exercises in managing pain. METHODS: This review used the PubMed database to identify fr…

AIM: Eastern Europe experienced epidemic levels of syphilis after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Presently data are less comprehensive outside the European Union (EU) and European Free Trade Association (EFTA). This review aims to identify published papers with suitable data to estimate a regional burden of disease…

OBJECTIVE: The influence of antepartal, intrapartal and early neonatal risk factors, are very important during the pregnancy and the pregnancy outcome, also for the early neonatal period and the forthcoming children development. Our aim is to detect the risks groups of pregnant women that later develop Pregnancy Induce…

Cardiac arrest (CA) is a serious clinical condition that might be responsible in many cases for death, in other at least for development of irreversible multiple organ dysfunctions. During and after the CA a significant coagulopathy develops causing a decrease in proper tissue perfusion even if an early return of spont…

With the rapid progress of biological research, great demands are proposed for integrative knowledge-sharing systems to efficiently support collaboration of biological researchers from various fields. To fulfill such requirements, we have developed a data-centric knowledge-sharing platform WebLab for biologists to fetc…

Understanding the spatial dynamics of nanoscale exciton transport beyond the temporal decay is essential for further improvements of nanostructured optoelectronic devices, such as solar cells. The diffusion coefficient () of the nonfullerene electron acceptor Y6 has so far only been determined indirectly, from singlet-…

This paper is a narrative review of the use of collective terminology in relation to race and health in Britain, with particular reference to the 'Black African' community. 'Black Africans' have been categorised in the 1991-2011 censuses with added free-text in 2021 in response to user demand. However, the UK governmen…

One of the new directions in the study of reproductive disorders in obese women is the effect and receptor sensitivity of  melatonin on the gonadotropic function of the pituitary gland and ovariogenesis, taking into account the chronology of «light pollution». At the present stage, there is very little l…

SUMMARY: Ligandbook is a public database and archive for force field parameters of small and drug-like molecules. It is a repository for parameter sets that are part of published work but are not easily available to the community otherwise. Parameter sets can be downloaded and immediately used in molecular dynamics sim…

Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) is a well-established tool for studying electronic, nuclear, and collective dynamics of excited atoms, molecules, and solids. An extension of this powerful method to a time-resolved probe technique at x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) to ultimately unravel ultrafast chemical…

BACKGROUND: Much biomedical research is now undertaken in China. METHODS: Five large biomedical databases originating from China (CBM, CMCC, CNKI, VIP and WANFANG) are described and their utility and accessibility investigated. RESULTS: These databases index 2500 journals largely not familiar to MEDLINE users. Free a…

The methods summarized in this video tutorial series are based on the open source Digital Methods Initiative - Twitter Capture and Analysis Toolkit (DMI-TCAT) that allows media researchers to collect tweets off the STREAM API (application programming interface) on an ongoing basis. With DMI - TCAT and the open source d…
