Evaluation of minced beef quality fortified with edible microalgae species during cryogenic storage.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of some microalgae species adding with different forms on minced beef meat shelf life during cryogenic storage for 13 days. Chlorella vulgaris and Arthrospira platensis are chosen because of their safety and high nutritional value. Microalgae nanoparticles with their different forms have been prepared by using emulsification solvent evaporation method.

Genomic characterization and molecular predictive biomarkers for chemotherapy in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer treated in a real-world setting.

Purpose: We aimed to characterize genomic alterations with potential prognostic or predictive significance in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) treated with chemotherapy in a real-world setting.

Patients And Methods: Next-generation sequencing with FoundationOne® CDx was conducted primarily on primary tumor tissue from 112 consecutive patients with mTNBC. Genomic alterations were subdivided into canonical oncogenic pathways and noted for their involvement in homologous recombination deficiency (HRD).

Integrating Wi-Fi, Li-Fi, and BPL Technologies for a Secure Indoor Communication System.

In today's digital age, there is an increasing demand for integrated wireless and wired technologies; however, there is a difficulty in achieving secure and reliable communications within buildings and facilities. This paper presents a proposal for maintaining the infrastructure while expanding it to implement communication technologies with high transmission and reception speeds and high levels of data confidentiality to enhance the operational efficiency of organizations. Three main technologies have emerged as promising solutions for this purpose: Wi-Fi, Li-Fi, and BPL.

Sex-Based Disparities in Treatment and Healthcare Utilization in Patients with Ulcerative Colitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

: Sex-related treatment disparities are well-documented across various medical conditions, yet their impact on the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains underexplored. This study aims to investigate sex-based differences in the management of ulcerative colitis (UC), focusing on both medical and surgical approaches and examining whether biological sex correlates with variations in healthcare utilization. : A systematic search was conducted across multiple databases, including MEDLINE (via PubMed), Google Scholar, the Cochrane Library, and ScienceDirect, to identify studies on sex differences in ulcerative colitis (UC) management up to April 2024.

Pharmacogenomics for neurodegenerative disorders - a focused review.

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are characterized by the progressive degeneration of neuronal structure and function, leading to severe cognitive and motor impairments. These conditions present significant challenges to healthcare systems, and traditional treatments often fail to account for genetic variability among patients, resulting in inconsistent therapeutic outcomes. Pharmacogenomics aims to tailor medical treatments based on an individual's genetic profile, thereby improving therapeutic efficacy and reducing adverse effects.
