Background: The objective of this study is to describe the technique and evaluate the clinical value of normal saline (NS) injection for expanding the anterior perirectal space during prostate cryoablation for prostate cancer (PCa) patients.
Methods: PCa patients who received cryoablation between August 2014 and December 2019 were enrolled, and the technique of NS injection was adopted. The complications were evaluated.
Taraxacum mongolicum polysaccharide (TMP) exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity, making it an attractive candidate for aquatic-product-safety applications. Here, this study was aimed to investigate the effects of dietary TMP on the growth, nutritional composition, antioxidant capacity, bioaccumulation and inflammation in Channa asiatica under hexavalent chromium stress. The C.

Allium mongolicum Regel flavonoids (AMRF) has been documented to possess detoxification, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of dietary AMRF and Cr exposure on bioaccumulation, oxidative stress, and immune response in Ctenopharyngodon idella.
