Obesity is the result of positive energy balance in which various hormones and neurotransmitters are involved. Using Dietary supplements is a common and popular method to lose weight. Medicinal plants with specific effects on metabolizing enzymes, blocking adipogenesis, and improving energy metabolism can be a suitable alternative to these supplements.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOptical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has significantly advanced the study and diagnosis of eye diseases. However, current clinical OCTA systems and software tools lack comprehensive quantitative analysis capabilities, limiting their full clinical utility. This paper introduces the OCTA Retinal Vessel Analyzer (OCTA-ReVA), a versatile open-source platform featuring a user-friendly graphical interface designed for the automated extraction and quantitative analysis of OCTA features.

- The cartilage growth plate is vital for skeletal growth, but its postnatal homeostasis mechanisms are not well understood; research highlights the role of ADGRG6/GPR126 in maintaining the growth plate structure and function in mice.
- Deletion of the Adgrg6 gene disrupts growth plate balance, leading to issues like a shorter resting zone and altered chondrocyte behavior, with implications on signaling molecules like PTHrP and Indian Hedgehog.
- ADGRG6 is shown to be crucial for chondrocyte health and regulation, impacting genes involved in growth and cell death, particularly through enhancing the expression of SOX9 and maintaining overall growth plate integrity.
Article Synopsis
- - The study compares the effectiveness of two graft types, testicular tunica vaginalis and bovine pericardium, used for repairing penile defects in patients with Peyronie's disease after plaque excision.
- - Conducted with 33 patients, the results showed significant improvements in penile curvature and appearance post-surgery, but no clear advantage of one graft type over the other in terms of functional outcomes.
- - Sexual function and penile length remained consistent throughout the 30-month follow-up, with no significant differences found between the two groups regarding these metrics.
Radiomics analysis of cerebral blood flow suggests a possible link between perfusion homogeneity and poor glioblastoma multiforme prognosis.

. This study investigates the association between cerebral blood flow (CBF) and overall survival (OS) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients receiving chemoradiation. Identifying CBF biomarkers could help predict patient response to this treatment, facilitating the development of personalized therapeutic strategies.
