Treatment effect modifiers of immunotherapies for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis-A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the treatment effects of immunotherapies in subgroups of adults with clinically isolated syndrome or relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) and the effect of potential treatment effect modifiers (TEMs).

Methods: Phase 2 and 3 RCTs with a placebo comparator were analyzed. Risk of bias was assessed.

Combining Partial True Discovery Guarantee Procedures.

Closed testing has recently been shown to be optimal for simultaneous true discovery proportion control. It is, however, challenging to construct true discovery guarantee procedures in such a way that it focuses power on some feature sets chosen by users based on their specific interest or expertise. We propose a procedure that allows users to target power on prespecified feature sets, that is, "focus sets.

Education needs in palliative care and advance care planning of Italian residents in neurology: an online survey.

Background And Purpose: Most neurological diseases have a chronic and progressive clinical course, with patients living for extended periods with complex healthcare needs. Evidence from other countries suggests that palliative care (PC) is insufficiently integrated in the care of these patients. This study aims to identify PC and advance care planning (ACP) knowledge and the perceived preparedness of Italian residents in neurology.

In Vitro Identification of Phosphorylation Sites on TcPolβ by Protein Kinases TcCK1, TcCK2, TcAUK1, and TcPKC1 and Effect of Phorbol Ester on Activation by TcPKC of TcPolβ in Epimastigotes.

Chagas disease is caused by the single-flagellated protozoan , which affects several million people worldwide. Understanding the signal transduction pathways involved in this parasite's growth, adaptation, and differentiation is crucial. Understanding the basic mechanisms of signal transduction in could help to develop new drugs to treat the disease caused by these protozoa.
