Pathogenesis and New Pharmacological Approaches to Noise-Induced Hearing Loss: A Systematic Review.

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is responsible for significant adverse effects on cognition, quality of life and work, social relationships, motor skills, and other psychological aspects. The severity of NIHL depends on individual patient characteristics, sound intensity, and mainly the duration of sound exposure. NIHL leads to the production of a reactive oxygen (ROS) inflammatory response and the activation of apoptotic pathways, DNA fragmentation, and cell death.

Correlation between Chemical Fertilization Practices, Phytochemical Response, and Biological Activities of Cannabis sativa L.

The plant kingdom offers a wealth of molecules with potential efficacy against various human, animal, and plant crop infections and illnesses. Cannabis sativa L. has garnered significant attention in recent decades within the scientific community due to its broad biological activity.

Mid-term clinical radiological results of the constrained condylar knee prosthesis in total knee revision.

Introduction: The aim of the present study is to analyze the clinical-radiological outcomes of patients undergoing knee prosthesis revision surgery using constrained condylar prosthesis (LCCK; Zimmer-Biomet).

Material And Methods: Retrospective study of 89 patients operated on between the years 2008 and 2020 with a minimum of 2 years of follow-up. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the WOMAC Index score and KOOS scales.

Enhanced weak superconductivity in trigonal-PtBi.

Electrical resistivity experiments show superconductivity atTc=1.1K in a high-quality single crystal of trigonal-PtBi, with an enhanced critical magnetic fieldμ0Hc2(0)≳1.5Tesla and a low critical current-densityJc(0)≈40 A cmat = 0.
