Background: The SARS-CoV-2 virus's frequent mutations have made disease control with vaccines and antiviral drugs difficult; as a result, there is a need for more effective coronavirus drugs. Therefore, detecting the expression of various diagnostic biomarkers, including ncRNA in SARS-CoV2, implies new therapeutic strategies for the disease.

Aim: Our study aimed to measure NEAT-1, miR-374b-5p, and IL6 in the serum of COVID-19 patients, demonstrating the correlation between target genes to explore the possible relationship between them.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effectiveness of 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) in identifying significant coronary artery stenosis in patients with stable angina pectoris.
  • Results indicate that patients with significant coronary artery disease (CAD) show lower global longitudinal strain (GLS) values, and 2D-STE demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity for detecting stenosis compared to standard echocardiography.
  • The findings suggest that GLS and segmental longitudinal strain (SLS) provide a more accurate assessment of coronary artery health than conventional echocardiography, which relies on subjective evaluation of wall motion.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study tested varying concentrations (0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%) of these microalgae, finding that lower concentrations improved nutritional value and sensory characteristics, while 1% negatively affected taste.
  • * Both microalgae increased the starter culture's viability during storage, showing potential for improved labneh, but they had different effects on pH and texture, suggesting further research on optimal mixtures and applications in functional foods.
