Background: There is limited evidence to support the use of vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) on improving balance and gait in patients after stroke. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effects of VRT in addition to usual rehabilitation compared with usual rehabilitation on improving balance and gait for patients after stroke.
Methods: This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analysis statement guidelines.
To get a tumor-targeted contrast agent for imaging guide resection of tumors, we designed a novel fluorescent probe based on the heptamethine cyanine core, Cy7-MO, which has excellent water solubility and near-infrared photophysical and lysosomal targeting properties. The chemical structure of Cy7-MO was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The toxicity of Cy7-MO was evaluated by cell counting kit-8.

In this study, we analyzed the gene expression data and clinicopathological data of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression Project (GTEx) downloaded from University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) Xena database. Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1) was screened out as a key prognostic gene for cervical cancer.
