Kidney transplantation is the optimal treatment for end-stage chronic kidney disease, increasing survival rates and improving quality of life. Diet affects patient weight and well-being, can trigger certain diseases, and influences post-surgery outcomes. The purpose of the study was to investigate dietary strategies in patients with chronic kidney disease, in early and long-term donor kidney recipients, and to formulate specific nutritional recommendations.

- Photodynamic therapy (PDT) effectively targets and destroys cells associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), with a high rate of complete regression observed in both low- and high-squamous intraepithelial lesions among 143 patients studied.* -
- The study demonstrated significant changes in patients' inflammatory responses post-treatment, including increased white blood cell counts and elevated body temperatures, indicating an immune response triggered by the therapy.* -
- Acute inflammation resulting from PDT may enhance its antiviral and antitumor effects by activating the immune system and causing changes in local blood flow in the treated areas.*
Cervical cancer is a largely preventable malignancy of the uterine cervix. The tendencies in cervical cancer morbidity and mortality have remained similar for the past decade, albeit with increasing frequency in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Moreover, in the majority of LMICs, cervical cancer is the second most prevalent cancer and the second most common cause of cancer-related death among reproductive-age women.

Through a two-round Delphi study, insights were gathered from a panel of 15 HTA specialists from France, Hungary, Italy, Kazakhstan, Poland, Switzerland, and Ukraine. Experts initially conducted a comprehensive review of the HB-HTA implementation in their respective countries, identifying the barriers and facilitators through descriptive analysis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Cervical cancer poses a considerable worldwide health issue, where infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a vital role as a risk factor. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive treatment for HPV-related cervical lesions, which uses photosensitizers and light to selectively destroy abnormal cells.
Objectives: Our objective is to present a comprehensive overview of the different types of molecules employed in PDT to reduce the occurrence and fatality rates associated with cervical cancer.
