Investigating the Role of Cannabinoid Type 1 Receptors in Vascular Function and Remodeling in a Hypercholesterolemic Mouse Model with Low-Density Lipoprotein-Cannabinoid Type 1 Receptor Double Knockout Animals.

Hypercholesterolemia forms the background of several cardiovascular pathologies. LDL receptor-knockout (LDLR-KO) mice kept on a high-fat diet (HFD) develop high cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis (AS). Cannabinoid type 1 receptors (CBRs) induce vasodilation, although their role in cardiovascular pathologies is still controversial.

Predicting residual cholesteatoma with the Potsic staging system still lacks evidence: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: To investigate the rate of residual disease in the Potsic staging system for congenital cholesteatomas.

Methods: A protocol registration was published on PROSPERO (CRD42022383932), describing residual disease as a primary outcome and hearing improvement as secondary. A systematic search was performed in four databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science) on December 14, 2022.

CD3/CD56 NKT-like Cells Show Imbalanced Control Immediately after Exercise in Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness.

The purpose of the study was to carry out an immunophenotypical characterization with a special focus on natural killer cells of junior swimmers from the Hungarian National Swim Team before and after an intensive acute exercise. Nineteen swimmers, ten females and nine males, completed the exercise protocol. Sixteen swimmers experienced delayed-onset muscle soreness.
