Fluid-based wearable sensors: a turning point in personalized healthcare.

Nowadays, it has become very popular to develop wearable devices that can monitor biomarkers to analyze the health status of the human body more comprehensively and accurately. Wearable sensors, specially designed for home care services, show great promise with their ease of use, especially during pandemic periods. Scientists have conducted many innovative studies on new wearable sensors that can noninvasively and simultaneously monitor biochemical indicators in body fluids for disease prediction, diagnosis, and management.

The diagnostic performance of antimullerian hormone for polycystic ovarian syndrome and polycystic ovarian morphology.

Purpose: The diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) remains a challenge to clinicians due to heterogeneous clinical presentation and diagnostic criteria. This study investigated the utilization of Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) alone or replacing polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) in the PCOS diagnostic criteria.

Methods: A total of 401 women were categorised as PCOS (n:154), nonPCOS with polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) (n:105), and nonPCOS with normal ovarian morphology (NOM) (n:142).

The comparison of inflammatory markers in geriatric and nongeriatric endometrial cancers.

Background: The inflammatory markers are associated with adverse clinical outcomes in endometrial cancers (EC), but hematopoietic aging may affect the results.

Objective: To compare inflammatory markers in geriatric and nongeriatric EC.

Methods: This study included 342 women with endometrial cancers (n: 171) and age-matched controls (n: 171).

Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition Is Not a Major Modulating Factor in the Cytotoxic Response to Natural Products in Cancer Cell Lines.

Numerous natural products exhibit antiproliferative activity against cancer cells by modulating various biological pathways. In this study, we investigated the potential use of eight natural compounds (apigenin, curcumin, epigallocatechin gallate, fisetin, forskolin, procyanidin B2, resveratrol, urolithin A) and two repurposed agents (fulvestrant and metformin) as chemotherapy enhancers and mesenchymal-to-epithelial (MET) inducers of cancer cells. Screening of these compounds in various colon, breast, and pancreatic cancer cell lines revealed anti-cancer activity for all compounds, with curcumin being the most effective among these in all cell lines.

THE EFFECTS OF ETANERCEPT AND CABERGOLINE ON ENDOMETRIOTIC IMPLANTS, UTERUS AND OVARIES IN RAT ENDOMETRIOSIS MODEL.

The pathophysiology of endometriosis is still unknown and treatment options remain controversial. Searches focus on angiogenesis, stem cells, immunologic and inflammatory factors. This study investigated the effects of etanercept and cabergoline on ovaries, ectopic, and eutopic endometrium in an endometriosis rat model.
