Article Synopsis
- * Conducted at a Turkish medical university, the research involved 96 geriatric patients with diarrhea, along with two control groups, using various diagnostic methods to analyze their health conditions.
- * Findings revealed that 31.3% of geriatric patients tested positive for amoebiasis, significantly higher than younger patients, indicating a need for increased awareness and treatment for infections in older adults.
Background: Despite the available treatments, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) prognosis is poor.
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the effects of the alamandine (ALA), melatonin (MEL), and ALA + MEL in PAH.
Methods: The rats were randomly divided into Control (n = 10), monocrotaline (MCT) (n = 12), ALA (n = 12), MEL (n = 12), and ALA + MEL (n = 12) groups.
Article Synopsis
- The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) helps cells do important jobs, and if something goes wrong, it can cause stress in the cell.
- Researchers studied how two different doses of a drug called Thapsigargin (Tg) affect seizure activity and certain proteins in the brains of rats that have absence seizures.
- They found that a mild dose of Tg increased seizure activity and changed protein levels, while a high dose reduced seizures but increased certain inflammatory markers, showing that different doses of Tg can have different effects on seizures and cell responses.
Social isolation is associated with poor stroke outcome, but the underlying molecular mechanisms were largely unknown. In male Balb/C mice exposed to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo), we examined the effects of social isolation initiated post-weaning on ischemic injury, cytokine/chemokine responses and cell signaling using a broad panel of techniques that involved immunocytochemistry, cytokine/chemokine array and Western blots. Social isolation initiated post-weaning elevated infarct size, brain edema and neuronal injury in the ischemic brain tissue 3 days after MCAo, and increased microglia/ macrophage and leukocyte accumulation.

Natural organic matter can compete with pesticides during the adsorption process, and the size of natural organic matter affects the removal of pesticides, as low-molecular-weight organics directly compete for adsorbent sites with pesticides. This study aims to investigate the competitive impact of low-molecular-weight organics on the adsorptive removal of acetochlor and metolachlor by four commercial powdered activated carbons.
