Telehealth Modality Usage by US Physicians in 2022.

Background: The growth of telehealth care delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted its potential to enhance access to care and improve patient outcomes. As the healthcare landscape moves toward a new equilibrium in care delivery, few studies have examined physician usage of specific telehealth modalities.

Objective: To understand telehealth usage differences among modalities and across subgroups of physicians.

Oil palm leaf protein hydrolysate and its novel peptides as alternative plant-based α-glucosidase inhibitors.

Diabetes, particularly type II, is a global health concern, with current treatments like α-glucosidase inhibitors often causing gastrointestinal side effects. This study explored the antihyperglycemic potential of crude protein hydrolysate from oil palm leaves (OPL) as a plant-based α-glucosidase inhibitor. OPL protein hydrolysate was extracted under acidic, neutral, and alkaline conditions, and their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity was assessed.

A multicentre, retrospective study of epidemiology and outcome of aplastic anaemia among adult population in Sabah and Sarawak from year 2006 to 2017.

Introduction: Aplastic anaemia (AA) is a rare disorder of bone marrow failure, characterized by bone marrow hypocellularity with pancytopenia. The annual incidence rates of AA in Asia are observed to be two to three times higher than Europe and North America. Since the introduction of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) and of allogenic stem cell transplant (SCT), the outcome of severe AA has significantly improved.

SUMOylation of Warts kinase promotes neural stem cell reactivation.

A delicate balance between neural stem cell (NSC) quiescence and proliferation is important for adult neurogenesis and homeostasis. Small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-dependent post-translational modifications cause rapid and reversible changes in protein functions. However, the role of the SUMO pathway during NSC reactivation and brain development is not established.
