: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) improves survival by increasing pathologic complete response (pCR). Blood-based indexes have been studied in breast cancer for predicting pCR and prognosis, but the results are conflicting. We aimed to assess the impact of inflammatory and nutritional indexes on pCR and survival.

Methods: AME was prepared from a pool of five amniotic membranes. After homogenizing the membranes, they were lyophilized and sterilized by gamma radiation to obtain sterile, lyophilized AME powder.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to surveil the injuries in wrestling according to the different age categories and wrestling styles throughout the competition season.
Methods: The study was designed as a descriptive study. The study was conducted during the wrestling competition season in 2023 (from January 2023 to July 2023), which includes 5 different age categories: U-15, U-17, U-20, U-23, and seniors, along with the Turkey National Wrestling Championships.
Article Synopsis
- The FLOW trial investigated the effects of semaglutide on cardiovascular (CV) events and death in individuals with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD).
- Results showed that semaglutide lowered the risk of CV death, non-fatal heart attacks, and strokes by 18%, and overall mortality by 20% across various levels of CKD severity.
- The beneficial effects of semaglutide were consistent regardless of kidney function, protein levels in urine, or risk classification.
