Advances in virus-specific T-cell therapy for polyomavirus infections: A comprehensive review.

Polyomaviruses are a group of small, non-enveloped, double-stranded DNA viruses that can infect various hosts, including humans. BKPyV causes conditions such as human polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (HPyVAN), human polyomavirus-associated haemorrhagic cystitis (HPyVHC), and human polyomavirus-associated urothelial cancer (HPyVUC). JC polyomavirus (JCPyV), on the other hand, is the causative agent of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a severe demyelinating disease of the central nervous system.

Transient global amnesia and hippocampal diffusion restriction: an overlooked radiological finding.

Transient global amnesia (TGA) is characterized by isolated sudden anterograde amnesia. Diffusion restriction can be observed in the hippocampus on DWI-MRI at varying rates in TGA patients. This study analyzes the prevalence and characteristics of the hippocampal diffusion restriction (HDR), its relationship with vascular risk factors, and the prevalence of lesions overlooked in routine reports.

The validity and reliability of preschool age psychiatric assessment (PAPA) in Turkish population.

Introduction: The Preschool Age Psychiatric Assessment (PAPA) was developed in response to the need for a standard and reliable tool for assessing preschool-age psychiatric disorders. The aim of this study was to translate PAPA into the Turkish language and evaluate the validity and reliability.

Methods: The researchers translated the original PAPA to Turkish, and the Turkish version of PAPA was translated back into its original language by professional translators.

Eco-Friendly Boost for Perovskite Photovoltaics: Harnessing Cellulose-Modified SnO as a High-Performance Electron Transporting Material.

In this study, a passivated tin oxide (SnO) film is successfully obtained through the implementation of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Na-CMC) modifier agent and used as the electron transporting layer (ETL) within the assembly of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The strategic incorporation of the Na-CMC modifier agent yields discernible enhancements in the optoelectronic properties of the ETL. Among the fabricated cells, the champion cell based on Na-CMC-complexed SnO ETL achieves a conversion efficiency of 22.

Phenotypic Investigation of Virulence Factors, Susceptibility to Ceragenins, and the Impact of Biofilm Formation on Drug Efficacy in Isolates from Türkiye.

has emerged as a significant fungal threat due to its rapid worldwide spread since its first appearance, along with its potential for antimicrobial resistance and virulence properties. This study was designed to examine virulence characteristics, the efficacy of ceragenins, and biofilm-derived drug resistance in seven strains isolated from Turkish intensive care patients. It was observed that none of the tested strains exhibited proteinase or hemolysis activity; however, they demonstrated weak phospholipase and esterase activity.
