It is widely acknowledged that carbon dioxide (CO ), a greenhouse gas, is largely responsible for climatic changes that can lead to warming or cooling in various places. This disturbs natural processes, creating instability and fragility of natural and social ecosystems. To combat climate change, without compromising technology advancements and maintaining production costs at acceptable levels, carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies can be deployed to advance a non-disruptive energy transition.

- * Data from 386 patients were analyzed, revealing that those on bortezomib-based protocols had better treatment responses and overall survival compared to thalidomide-based and chemotherapy protocols, especially in fitter patients.
- * While those treated with chemotherapy were generally older and had more health issues, the study noted lower severe side effects in patients on thalidomide or chemotherapy compared to bortezomib, underscoring the need for tailored treatment for older adults with multiple myeloma.
Congenital erythrocytosis is a hereditary disorder due to an increase in red cell mass that can be caused by mutations in proteins involved in HIF-α pathway, as PHD2. Hereby, we describe a new familial mutation in PHD2 gene. Considering an increased thrombotic potential, patients began antiplatelet aggregation therapy and phlebotomies.
