Quantitative chromatin protein dynamics during replication origin firing in human cells.

Accurate genome duplication requires a tightly regulated DNA replication program, which relies on the fine regulation of origin firing. While the molecular steps involved in origin firing have been determined predominantly in budding yeast, the complexity of this process in human cells has yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we describe a straightforward proteomics approach to systematically analyse protein recruitment to the chromatin during induced origin firing in human cells.

Ear acupuncture with laser and needles in the treatment of anxiety in university students: a randomized clinical trial.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of ear acupuncture with laser and needles in the treatment of anxiety in university students in the post-pandemic context of Covid-19, as well as to evaluate the possible symptoms or adverse reactions triggered by the interventions.

Method: Randomized clinical trial carried out with 126 university students, allocated to the "Needle" (control) and "Laser" (experimental) groups. Five ear acupuncture sessions were performed.

Health-Economic Impact Attributable to Occurrence of Pleurisy and Pneumonia Lesions in Finishing Pigs.

Respiratory diseases, such as pleurisy and pneumonia, cause significant health and economic losses in pig production. This study evaluated 867 finishing pigs from a farm with a history of respiratory issues, using macroscopic lesion scoring (SPES and CVPC), histopathological analysis, qPCR diagnostics, and economic modeling. Severe pleurisy (scores 3 and 4) was observed in 42.

Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of an actively bleeding renal angiomyolipoma.

We report a case of computed tomography-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of a bleeding renal angiomyolipoma. Radiofrequency ablation was performed as an alternative to partial nephrectomy and super-selective renal artery embolization for ruptured renal angiomyolipoma with slow persistent bleeding in a patient with elevated serum creatinine levels and other comorbidities. Computed tomography-guided radiofrequency ablation successfully stopped the active hemorrhage and did not affect long-term renal function during the 3-year follow period.
