Azo dyes are of concern due to their harmful effects on the environment and human health. The oxidation of 2,2'-dihydroxyazobenzene (DHAB) catalyzed with recombinant(rCiP) peroxidase was investigated. The kinetic measurements were performed using the spectrophotometric and fluorimetric methods. The dependences of the i…

To the Editor, we follow the topic "A chat about bipolar disorder". According to the study's findings, ChatGPT proved its ability to deliver basic and informative information on bipolar disorders.

This study's objective is to obtain accuracy and precision in estimating the postmortem interval (PMI) for decomposing human remains discovered in indoor settings. Data were collected prospectively from 140 forensic cases with a known date of death, scored according to the Total Body Score (TBS) scale at the post-morte…

Food and nutrition education is viewed as a key strategy for promoting healthy eating habits, and the school is an appropriate space for developing these activities. The objective of this study was to describe and analyze the scientific literature on intervention studies on food and nutrition education in Brazilian sch…

Comprehensive analytical technologies are rapidly becoming a cornerstone of modern nutritional sciences. Two of these technologies, mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), have proven highly informative for the global analysis of metabolites, commonly referred to as metabolomics. Metabolomics provi…

This article was written to reflect the importance of a correct quantification of the complexity of the elderly patient and its potential possibilities in clinical practice. From the decision to perform a laboratory test to the decision of the benefits of a determinate surgery through adjusting pathologies in several s…

In light of the growing prominence of an age criterion in patient selection, it is essential to scrutinize the ethical legitimacy of arguments being offered both for and against using age as a criterion. Accordingly, the present study first explores the primary justifications for an age criterion, then examines the cri…

Serological biomarkers of inner ear proteins are a promising new approach for studying human hearing. Here, we focus on the serological measurement of prestin, a protein integral to a human's highly sensitive hearing, expressed in cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs). Building from recent nonhuman studies that associated n…

Autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) are characterised by attention deficits in communication and social interactions and a lack of interest in people. Data are mostly based on clinical situations. However, recent studies have shown a more mixed situation where children with ASD (ASD children) displayed interest towards h…

The study by Ousager and Johannessen in this issue finds a lack of research attempting to measure the long-term effects of incorporating humanities into the undergraduate medical education (UME) curriculum, and warns that more such studies are needed if the humanities are to become integrated into UME. This commentary…

One study's pediatric protocol sparks ethical debate.

Indoor thermal comfort/perception (ITC) would be affected by contextual factors. The present article reviewed findings (thermal responses represented by neutral temperature, NT) of ITC studies published in recent decades. There were two types of contextual factors: climate (latitude, altitude, and distance from the sea…

The present study's purpose has been to examine the development of the human suprarenal glands (SGs) during the prenatal period. Special attention was paid to sexual dimorphism and the differences between the parameters of the right and left SGs. Specimens were obtained from 187 human fetuses spontaneously aborted betw…

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are a group of complex disorders characterized by the progressive degeneration and dysfunction of neurons in the central nervous system. NDs encompass many conditions, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex disease affecting almost f…

While the disclosure of research findings is relevant to all types of biomedical research, it has garnered particular attention with respect to genetics and genomics research due to some of the unique aspects of the data and the high public profile of the field. In this chapter, we review the attitudes of stakeholders…

Issues of disclosure arise in neuroscientific research during the informed consent process, whenever incidental findings are identified, and when study results are generated. The possibility of disclosure of incidental findings and/or research results may raise informational expectations on the part of subjects and may…

BACKGROUND: EPI3 is an observational study of a representative sample of general practitioners (GPs) and patients in France, demonstrating that patient characteristics differ according to the prescribing preferences of their GPs for homeopathy. For selected conditions (musculoskeletal disorders, sleep disorders, anxiet…

The objective of this study is to assess tracheobronchial flow features with the cartilaginous rings during a light exercising. Tracheobronchial is part of human's body airway system that carries oxygen-rich air to human's lungs as well as takes carbon dioxide out of the human's lungs. Consequently, evaluation of the f…

BACKGROUND: Animal models are indispensable tools in studying the cause of human diseases and searching for the treatments. The scientific value of an animal model depends on the accurate mimicry of human diseases. The primary goal of the current study was to develop a cross-species method by using the animal models' e…

For herbal medicinal products the methodology of observational cohort studies (observational studies, drug monitoring studies, Anwendungsbeobachtung) represents a useful addition to clinical trials. The key objectives are the documentation of efficacy in particular under conditions of everyday medical practice in authe…
