The effectiveness of the use of selenium-containing top dressing in the cultivation of radish.

Vegetable crops of the Brassicaceae family have the ability to include the necessary trace element selenium (Se) in the composition of organic compounds such as selenoproteins, in addition, they have important properties for human health based on the content of selenium. In our work, we investigated the effect of non-root processing of vegetating radish plants on the quality of finished products. The research results showed that the selenium content in the product part of plants significantly increased with an increase in the concentration of this element in the working solution.

Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection in Hemodialysis Patient due to .

, previously known as , is a rare causative agent of human infections. Several reports testify that the most frequently infected patients are immunosuppressed, especially those undergoing hemodialysis. A 34-year-old man with an end-stage renal disease complained of chills, fever, and general fatigue at the end of a regular hemodialysis session.

Treating unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with transarterial chemoembolization and an unusual progression with cardiac involvement.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a rare type of cancer that is usually discovered at an advanced stage where surgical treatment is not an option. When compared to standard systemic therapy, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) can provide a survival benefit to unresectable patients. Extrahepatic tumor spread is not rare, but cardiac involvement is an unusual complication.

Tunnelled hemodialysis catheter-related bloodstream infection with : a report of the first two cases from Bulgaria and a brief overview.

The use of central venous catheters for hemodialysis continues to grow worldwide, despite the efforts of many specialists. Patients with end-stage renal disease have impaired immunity, which is why infections are the most common complication seen in them. It worsens their quality of life and is a major cause of high morbidity and mortality, especially in hemodialysis patients.

One-Year COMBO Stent Outcomes in Acute Coronary Syndrome: from the COMBO Collaboration.

Purpose: The COMBO biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent includes endothelial progenitor cell capture (EPC) technology for rapid endothelialization, which may offer advantage in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). We sought to analyze the performance of the COMBO stent by ACS status and ACS subtype.

Methods: The COMBO collaboration (n = 3614) is a patient-level pooled dataset from the MASCOT and REMEDEE registries.
