Impact of Silymarin Supplementation on Liver Function and Enzyme Profiles in Diverse Chronic Liver Disease Etiologies.

Aim And Background: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of silymarin in improving liver function and reducing liver stiffness in chronic liver disease (CLD) patients. Silymarin, a hepatoprotective agent, has shown potential benefits in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver fibrosis, but evidence in CLD with varied etiologies remains limited. This study addresses the gap by assessing its impact across diverse etiological subgroups.

Adeno-Associated Virus-Mediated Gene Therapy.

Choice of vector is the most critical step in gene therapy. Adeno-associated viruses (AAV); third generation vectors, are getting much attention of scientists to be used as vehicles due to their non-pathogenicity, excellent safety profile, low immune responses, great efficiency to transduce non-dividing cells, large capacity to transfer genetic material and long-term expression of genetic payload. AAVs have multiple serotypes and each serotype shows tropism for a specific cell.

Rubella Virus Infections: A Bibliometric Analysis of the Scientific Literature from 2000 to 2021.

Rubella virus (RuV) generally causes a mild infection, but it can sometimes lead to systemic abnormalities. This study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of over two decades of RuV research. Medical studies published from 2000 to 2021 were analyzed to gain insights into and identify research trends and outputs in RuV.

Global Research Trends on Monkeypox Virus: A Bibliometric and Visualized Study.

Monkeypox is a zoonotic viral disease that has recently emerged as another global infection disease. A double-stranded enveloped deoxyribonucleic acid virus the cause of this disease. Since monkeypox is an evolving field of study with a growing interest in public health, it is crucial to study the scientific trend and research activities.

Semiconducting eutectic materials for photocatalysis and photoelectrochemistry applications: a perspective.

The world of semiconductors has drastically improved human lifestyle due to its versatile applications. The demand for new efficient semiconductors is increasing day by day, giving birth to the idea of new synthesis methods. Here, the importance of semiconductor eutectic materials has been presented, as one of the potential candidates for solar-based devices such as photo-anodes for water splitting, along with the micro (μ) pulling method (as a synthesis method for semiconductor eutectic materials).

Bibliometric Analysis of Publications on the Omicron Variant from 2020 to 2022 in the Scopus Database Using R and VOSviewer.

Human respiratory infections caused by coronaviruses can range from mild to deadly. Although there are numerous studies on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), few have been published on its Omicron variant. In order to remedy this deficiency, this study undertook a bibliometric analysis of the publishing patterns of studies on the Omicron variant and identified hotspots.

Controlling transport properties at LaFeO/SrTiOinterfaces by defect engineering.

The formation of conductive LaFeO/SrTiOinterfaces is first time reported by pulsed laser deposition via controlling the defects of SrTiO, which are closely related to the surface of substrate. It is found that the interfaces grown on SrTiOsubstrates without terraces exhibit the two dimensional electron gas. Moreover, the conductive interfaces show a resistance upturn at low temperatures which is strongly diminished by light irradiation.

Clinical Profile and Prognosis of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis.

Introduction Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is an acute cerebrovascular disease diagnosed nowadays more frequently. Magnetic resonance venogram (MRV) is the modality of choice for accurate diagnosis. Young females in their childbearing age are prone to develop CVST.

The Frustration-induced Ferroelectricity of a Manganite Tricolor Superlattice with Artificially Broken Symmetry.

In this paper, [(LaSrMnO)/(PaCaMnO)/(LaSbMnO)] superlattices films have been deposited on (001) Nb:SrTiO substrates by a laser molecular-beam epitaxy technology. Expected ferroelectricity arise at well-defined tricolor superlattice at low temperature, composed of transition metal manganite, which is absent in the single-phase compounds. Furthermore, the ferroelectric properties of the superlattices are enhanced by increasing the periodicity m, which may be attributed to the accumulation of the polarization induced by the frustration.
