Association of dietary and plasma fatty acids with periodontitis: Results from the 2009-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and Mendelian randomization study.

Background: The authors aimed to explore the association of fatty acids with periodontitis and its severity and to assess causality using Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses.

Methods: Data for participants with complete data were extracted from the 2009-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Weighted logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between dietary fatty acids and periodontitis and its severity.

Characterization of the Activities of Vorinostat Against .

is a globally widespread pathogen of significant veterinary and medical importance, causing abortion or congenital disease in humans and other warm-blooded animals. Nevertheless, the current treatment options are restricted and sometimes result in toxic side effects. Hence, it is essential to discover drugs that demonstrate potent anti- activity.

Virulence of Bacteria Causing Mastitis in Dairy Cows: A Literature Review.

Bovine mastitis, a prevalent disease in dairy farms, exerts a profound negative influence on both the health and productivity of dairy cattle, leading to substantial economic losses for the dairy industry. The disease is associated with different bacterial agents, primarily Gram-positive cocci (e.g.

Cadmium Tolerance and Detoxification Mechanisms of : Physiology, Subcellular Distribution, and Chemical Forms.

has a strong cadmium-enrichment ability, posing a potential threat to human health. However, the cadmium tolerance and detoxification mechanisms of are not understood. We investigated the physiological responses, subcellular distribution, and chemical forms of cadmium in two strains (1504 and L130) with contrasting cadmium tolerance.

Comparative Analysis of Automated and Handheld Breast Ultrasound Findings for Small (≤1 cm) Breast Cancers Based on BI-RADS Category.

: This study aimed to compare ultrasound (US) findings between automated and handheld breast ultrasound (ABUS and HHUS, respectively) in small breast cancers, based on the breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) category. : We included 51 women (mean age: 52 years; range: 39-66 years) with breast cancer (invasive or DCIS), all of whom underwent both ABUS and HHUS. Patients with tumors measuring ≤1 cm on either modality were enrolled.
