In the last few years, many efforts have been devoted to the recovery and valorization of olive oil by-products because of their potentially high biological value. The olive mill wastewater (OMWW), a dark-green brown colored liquid that mainly consists of fruit vegetation water, is particularly exploited in this regard for its great content in phenolic compounds with strong antioxidant properties. In our previous work, we produced different OMWW fractions enriched in hydroxytyrosol- and hydroxytyrosol/oleuropein (i.

Large scale randomized trials have shown that sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors can reduce cardiovascular events in patients with cardiovascular disease or with increased risks of cardiovascular disease. However, the evidence from older patients is limited. To compare the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors among non-older and older patients we have searched PubMed, Cochrane Central, and Embase until February 2023 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating SGLT2 inhibitors in older (age ≥ 65 years) patients with diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and chronic heart failure.

Advances in bladder cancer (BCa) treatment have been hampered by the lack of predictive biomarkers and targeted therapies. Here, we demonstrate that loss of the tumor suppressor NUMB promotes aggressive bladder tumorigenesis and worsens disease outcomes. Retrospective cohort studies show that NUMB-loss correlates with poor prognosis in post-cystectomy muscle-invasive BCa patients and increased risk of muscle invasion progression in non-muscle invasive BCa patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on detecting multijet signatures from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV, analyzing a dataset totaling 128 fb^{-1}.
  • A special data scouting method is utilized to pick out events with low combined momentum in jets.
  • This research is pioneering in its investigation of electroweak particle production in R-parity violating supersymmetric models, particularly examining hadronically decaying mass-degenerate higgsinos, and it broadens the limits on the existence of R-parity violating top squarks and gluinos.

The first search for soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEPs) is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV, collected in 2016-2018 by the CMS detector at the LHC. Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.
