Methods: We analyzed data collected from participants enrolled in the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a nationwide birth cohort study conducted between 2011 and 2014.
Background: Amino acid (AA) substitutions in the fusion protein of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and their effects remain unclear. We aimed to analyze AA substitutions in main neutralizing epitopes of the fusion (F) protein.
Methods: We analyzed F protein genes of 236 RSV strains isolated from children hospitalized with RSV infection in Fukushima, Japan (June 2008-February 2023).
Article Synopsis
- The PPAR Stroke study investigated pemafibrate's effectiveness in slowing down cerebrovascular atherosclerosis in stroke patients with high triglycerides, involving 99 participants over a 2-year period.
- Results showed significant reductions in triglyceride and inflammatory marker levels, with some improvement in carotid artery thickness, particularly on the left side.
- The findings suggest that pemafibrate may have beneficial effects on lipid profiles and inflammation, potentially aiding in the management of atherosclerotic diseases following a stroke.
