The other side of celiac disease - assessment of bone mineral density and body composition in patients with celiac disease.

Introduction: Decreased bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the most frequent extraintestinal symptoms of celiac disease (CD).

Aim: The study aimed to investigate BMD, body composition, 25(OH)D, and ionised calcium blood parameters, and to compare them between women with CD and healthy individuals.

Material And Methods: The study covered 30 adult women with CD and 28 healthy controls.

The Effect of Ionising Radiation on the Properties of Tumour-Derived Exosomes and Their Ability to Modify the Biology of Non-Irradiated Breast Cancer Cells-An In Vitro Study.

The vast majority of breast cancer patients require radiotherapy but some of them will develop local recurrences and potentially metastases in the future. Recent data show that exosomal cargo is essential in these processes. Thus, we investigated the influence of ionising radiation on exosome properties and their ability to modify the sensitivity and biology of non-irradiated cells.

NHC-Au-xanthate complexes.

We report the synthesis, isolation, and comprehensive characterization of N-heterocyclic carbene gold xanthate (NHC-Au-X, X - xanthate) complexes. These easily accessible complexes demonstrate significant versatility as photocatalysts, facilitating [2+2]-cycloadditions, and as π-catalysts in the intramolecular hydroxylation of allenes and hydrohydrazination of alkynes.

Versatile Porphyrin Arrangements for Photodynamic Therapy-A Review.

Nanotechnology is an emerging field that involves the development of nanoscale particles, their fabrication methods, and potential applications. From nanosized inorganic particles to biopolymers, the variety of nanoparticles is unstoppably growing, offering huge opportunities for drug delivery. Various nanoformulations, such as nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and nanoemulsions, have been developed to enhance drug stability, solubility, and tissue penetration.

Investigating the involvement of the left and right hemisphere in speech production and its correlation with handedness - a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation study.

Purpose: While traditional theories suggest a link between language lateralization and handedness, recent evidence indicates more complex neural networks underlying speech processing. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of the left and right hemispheres in speech production using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS).

Methods: A cohort of 58 healthy volunteers with a median age of 23 (range 19-34) were included in the study.
