Hepatitis B vaccine and juvenile idiopathic arthritis: comparison of the seropositivity rates with healthy children at the time of diagnosis and booster dose response under treatment.

Introduction/objectives: The study aimed to determine whether in children with newly diagnosed juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) differs from healthy children and to see whether the revaccination is safe and effective under JIA treatment.

Methods: Patients who were followed up with a diagnosis of JIA between January 2020 and February 2024 were included. The control group consisted of healthy children matched for age and gender.

Effects of the Ketogenic Diet on Microbiota Composition and Short-Chain Fatty Acids in Women with Overweight/Obesity.

: The ketogenic diet (KD) is a dietary model that can impact metabolic health and microbiota and has been widely discussed in recent years. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 6-week KD on biochemical parameters, gut microbiota, and fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in women with overweight/obesity. : Overall, 15 women aged 26-46 years were included in this study.

Rumination, Basic Beliefs, and Posttraumatic Growth in Cancer Patients: A Moderated Mediation Model.

Background: Cancer is a highly distressing and traumatic experience that can significantly impact individuals' psychological well-being. Whereas many cancer patients may experience negative psychological outcomes, such as posttraumatic stress symptoms, a subset of individuals also reports positive psychological changes known as posttraumatic growth.

Objective: To contribute to theory-driven development of these treatments by exploring the role of deliberate rumination in posttraumatic growth, along with the basic beliefs that might shape it.

Prioritization Based Task Offloading in UAV-Assisted Edge Networks.

Under demanding operational conditions such as traffic surges, coverage issues, and low latency requirements, terrestrial networks may become inadequate to provide the expected service levels to users and applications. Moreover, when natural disasters or physical calamities occur, the existing network infrastructure may collapse, leading to formidable challenges for emergency communications in the area served. In order to provide wireless connectivity as well as facilitate a capacity boost under transient high service load situations, a substitute or auxiliary fast-deployable network is needed.

The Effect of Ceftriaxone in Valproic Acid-Induced Mouse Model of Autism.

Autism is a multifactorial neurodevelopment disease and it has not been disclosed as a hypoglutamatergic or hyperglutamathergic disease. Ceftriaxone is an antibiotic that increases glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1) expression in the brain in chronic use. In our study we aimed to investigate the effects of different doses of ceftriaxone in postnatal period in male mice exposed to valproic acid (VPA) at 12.
