Cimicifuga racemosa is widely employed to relieve menopause symptoms for its hormonal-like action. However, recent experimental studies have not found an estrogenic action by this plant. The purpose of this systematic review is to analyse all experimental studies (in vivo and in vitro) performed on C. racemosa to eluci…

Ganaxolone, a neuroactive steroid that increases GABAergic inhibition, has been tested in many trials for the resolution of different epileptic disorders. Based on these, our study implemented a systematic review to evaluate the general benefit of ganaxolone for seizures. Pubmed, google scholar, European PubMed Central…

: Toothbrushing is a recommended daily practice that helps sustain oral health. However, if performed improperly, it can lead to loss of tooth structure and injury to soft tissues. We explored this topic with an extensive literature search.: A literature search was performed across textbooks and journals for original r…

Mounier-Kuhn syndrome (MKS) or tracheobronchomegaly is an uncommon disease of the central airways. It is characterized by pathological dilatation of the trachea and main bronchi and inevitably leads to recurrent respiratory infections, bronchiectasis, hospitalizations, and results in considerable morbidity and mortalit…

Machine Translation (MT) has emerged as a crucial tool in bridging language barriers. In health settings, MT is increasingly relevant due to the diversity of patient populations, the dominance of English in medical research, and the limited availability of human translation services. Improvements in MT accuracy have pr…

E-mental health (EMH) interventions gain increasing importance in the treatment of mental health disorders. Their outpatient efficacy is well-established. However, research on EMH in inpatient settings remains sparse and lacks a meta-analytic synthesis. This paper presents a meta-analysis on the efficacy of EMH in inpa…

Sport is a multifactorial phenomenon that is influenced by many factors. Although many factors affect sports performance, genetic factors may be important issues that need to be examined. In addition, the relationship between sports performance and genes is still unclear. Due to the developments in omics technologies,…

Hypernatremia or high serum sodium levels can have many different causes, including insufficient free water intake, or excess free water losses. The management of hypernatremia focuses on resolving the underlying cause, replenishing free water deficit, and preventing further losses while closely monitoring serum s…

Mycetoma is a neglected tropical disease caused by fungi (eumycetoma) or bacteria (actinomycetoma), with high morbidity. Gordonia spp. are gram-positive bacteria that have previously been reported to cause mycetoma. Here, we report a case of Gordonia soli (initially misidentified as Nocardia spp.) as the etiological ag…

The International Neurourology Journal (Int Neurourol J, INJ) is a quarterly international journal that publishes high-quality research papers that provide the most significant and promising achievements in the fields of clinical neurourology and fundamental science. Specifically, fundamental science includes the most…

Autophagy is a cellular process that eliminates unnecessary cytoplasmic materials, such as long-age proteins, destroyed organelles, and foreign microorganisms. Macroautophagy (MaA), chaperone-mediated autophagy, and microautophagy are the three main types of autophagy. It is regulated by the integration of signaling fr…

Legalizing cannabis use in various states in the United States has caused increased substance abuse, mostly among young people. There are very little data focussing on marijuana use and myocardial infarction (MI) incidence. The objective of the study is to analyze the published papers for cannabis-induced MI and d…

The clinical practice of adding antidepressant drugs to the therapy for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in addition to the standard drug regimen is not yet well established. This study aims to establish if there is an association between H. pylori gastritis and depression and to furthe…

PURPOSE: Since every obstetric surgical procedure requires gaining informed consent from patient, we have set out to evaluate whether such requirement also applies to episiotomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: To that end, we have conducted a thorough search of relevant scientific literature on multidisciplinary databases (Sco…

Diseases play central roles in many areas of biomedical research and healthcare. Consequently, aggregating the disease knowledge and treatment research reports becomes an extremely critical issue, especially in rapid-growth knowledge bases (e.g. PubMed). We therefore developed a system, AuDis, for disease mention recog…

A healthy meniscus is important for normal function of the knee. Numerous studies support that the repair of a torn meniscus is important to prevent degenerative changes in the knee. The ability to repair torn menisci is based on several factors including location, tear orientation, chronicity, and concomitant ligament…

This review aims to (i) summarize the literature on optogenetic applications of different stress-induced mood disorder models of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and its projection circuits, and (ii) examine methodological variability across the literature and how such variations may influence the underlying circuit…

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastative neurodegenerative disorder with complex etiology. Neuroinflammation has been found to be an underlying cause of the disease, although it demonstrates significant defensive role and renders the brain immunologically secured. This review focuses on the physiology and pathology of…

The coronavirus disease of 2019 is a global pandemic disease severely affecting the upper respiratory tract that can be fatal in some instances.
