Osteology of the appendicular skeleton of Bagualia alba (Dinosauria, Eusauropoda) from the Lower Jurassic of Patagonia and the macroevolutionary history of early eusauropods.

Since their origin, sauropodomorphs have undergone numerous anatomical changes from small and bipedal early sauropodomorphs towards massive-bodied and quadrupedal sauropods. However, the timing of these changes in the evolution of the group is unclear. Here, we describe the appendicular skeleton of the early diverging eusauropod Bagualia alba from the late Early Jurassic of Patagonia, Argentina, and conduct a morphological disparity analysis based on a phylogenetic dataset of Sauropoda.

Innate acting memory Th1 cells modulate heterologous diseases.

Through immune memory, infections have a lasting effect on the host. While memory cells enable accelerated and enhanced responses upon rechallenge with the same pathogen, their impact on susceptibility to unrelated diseases is unclear. We identify a subset of memory T helper 1 (Th1) cells termed innate acting memory T (T) cells that originate from a viral infection and produce IFN-γ with innate kinetics upon heterologous challenge in vivo.

Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma: A thorough Bioinformatic Analysis of Gene Expression and Clinical Data.

The likelihood of being diagnosed with thyroid cancer has increased in recent years; it is the fastest-expanding cancer in the United States and it has tripled in the last three decades. In particular, Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of cancer affecting the thyroid. It is a slow-growing cancer and, thus, it can usually be cured.

Hospitalization Burden of Patients with Kidney Stones and Metabolic Comorbidities in Spain during the Period 2017-2020.

Nephrolithiasis has become an increasing worldwide problem during the last decades. Metabolic syndrome, its components, and related dietary factors have been pointed out as responsible for the increasing incidence. The objective of this study was to evaluate the trends in the hospitalization rates of patients with nephrolithiasis, hospitalization features, costs, and how metabolic syndrome traits influence both the prevalence and complications of lithiasic patients.

Validity and Future of Primary Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer. Integration in the Era of New Agents Targeting the Androgen Receptor.

The relationship of sex hormones with prostate glandular activity and the evidence of the favourable impact of bilateral orchiectomy in 21 patients with locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer (PCa), ratified by Huggins C.B. and cols.
