Impact of iodine supplementation and mtDNA mutations on papillary thyroid cancer in saudi women following a vegetarian diet.

This study examined the influence of iodine supplementation and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)  mutations in Saudi vegetarian women with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Blood and tissue samples from PTC-diagnosed women were analyzed for thyroid function, mtDNA mutations, and immunohistological features. Statistical analysis using Sigmastat was employed to compare thyroid hormone levels and mtDNA mutations between groups.

The function of long non-coding RNA SNHG11 and its working mechanism in triple-negative breast cancer.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) seriously affects woman's health. The present work is to study the working mechanism of lncRNA SNHG11 in TNBC. The expressions of SNHG11, microRNA (miR)- 7-5p, specificity protein 2 (SP2) and mucin 1 (MUC-1) in TNBC tissues and cells were detected.

Detecting STR profiles from degrading menstrual blood samples and their use as possible evidence in forensic investigations.

This research explores DNA consistency and attempts to detect STR profiles from the degrading menstrual blood samples (MBS) as reliable forensic evidence. Peripheral (PBS) and MBS of 30 healthy fertile females were taken on the menstrual cycle's second day. They were obtained at different time periods (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, and 48 h) at 25 °C.

Deep Learning Approaches for Detecting COVID-19 From Chest X-Ray Images: A Survey.

Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging is a standard and crucial examination method used for suspected cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). In profoundly affected or limited resource areas, CXR imaging is preferable owing to its availability, low cost, and rapid results. However, given the rapidly spreading nature of COVID-19, such tests could limit the efficiency of pandemic control and prevention.
