Morphology and Distribution of Fat Globules in Osteomyelitis on Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphology and distribution characteristics of fat globules in osteomyelitis on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Materials And Methods: Patients with pathologically-confirmed osteomyelitis and MRI scans were retrospectively enrolled, and fat globules on the MRI images were analyzed.

Results: Among 103 patients with non-traumatic osteomyelitis, 75 were fat globule negative and 28 were positive.

Comprehensive Analysis of Metabolic Changes in Mice Exposed to Corilagin Based on GC-MS Analysis.

Background: Corilagin is widely distributed in various medicinal plants. In recent years, numerous pharmacological activities of Corilagin have been reported, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, hepatoprotective, anti-tumor, and anti-fibrosis effects. However, there is still a need for systematic metabolomics analysis to further elucidate its mechanisms of action.

Correlation between weight-adjusted waist index and coronary heart disease: NHANES 1999-2020.

Background: The weight adjusted waist index (WWI) represents a novel indicator for assessing central obesity. The objective of this study is to investigate the association between WWI and coronary heart disease (CHD).

Method: The data of 44,528 participants in total were gathered from NHANES database from 1999 to 2020.

Octa-Cationic Porphyrin-Functionalized Biocompatible Nanocomposite: A Promising Candidate for Enhanced Combinatorial Photodynamic and Photothermal Tumor Therapy.

The integration of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) offers a promising strategy for enhancing phototherapy efficiency. Herein, we present a dual-functional, biocompatible nanocomposite system for combination PDT/PTT therapy. The system utilizes a highly biocompatible nanoparticle assembled by an amphiphilic short peptide with the assistance of Zn as a carrier.
