Nicorandil as a promising therapeutic option for ventricular arrhythmia: A case report and review of literature.

Background: Ventricular arrhythmia is a common type of arrhythmia observed in clinical practice. It is primarily characterized by premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation. Abnormal formation or transmission of cardiac electrical impulses in patients affects cardiac ejection function.

Displacement and stress response of open-web girders under near field explosive loading.

This study employed numerical simulation to investigate the dynamic response characteristics of open-web girders subjected to proximity blast loading and to compare these characteristics with those of solid-web girders. The research utilized the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) method for simulation, effectively combining the advantages of both Eulerian and Lagrangian approaches. This method mitigated issues related to mesh distortion while accurately modeling the damage inflicted by blast loads on the structures.

Turning cold into hot: emerging strategies to fire up the tumor microenvironment.

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex, highly structured, and dynamic ecosystem that plays a pivotal role in the progression of both primary and metastatic tumors. Precise assessment of the dynamic spatiotemporal features of the TME is crucial for understanding cancer evolution and designing effective therapeutic strategies. Cancer is increasingly recognized as a systemic disease, influenced not only by the TME, but also by a multitude of systemic factors, including whole-body metabolism, gut microbiome, endocrine signaling, and circadian rhythm.

Transgenic as a Promising Oral Vaccine Carrier: Potential Application in the Aquaculture Industry.

SR21, a kind of eukaryotic heterotrophic organism rich in unsaturated fatty acids, is an emerging microbial alternative to fish oil. The dietary inclusion of 15% SR21 was optimal for the growth performance of zebrafish. Previous studies demonstrated that fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) of is a valuable broad-spectrum antigen against various pathogens in aquaculture (e.

Immune imbalance in Lupus Nephritis: The intersection of T-Cell and ferroptosis.

Ferroptosis is a novel form of cell death characterized by unlimited accumulation of iron-dependent lipid peroxides. It is often accompanied by disease, and the relationship between ferroptosis of immune cells and immune regulation has been attracting increasing attention. Initially, it was found in cancer research that the inhibition of regulatory T cell (Treg) ferroptosis and the promotion of CD8+ T cell ferroptosis jointly promoted the formation of an immune-tolerant environment in tumors.
