Article Synopsis
  • Researchers studied the impact of muscle and fat loss on mortality in pancreatic cancer patients using CT scans.
  • They found that reduced skeletal muscle area in men and changes in visceral fat levels could predict mortality, while muscle loss in women showed different survival patterns.
  • The study highlights the importance of accurately measuring body composition changes during treatment, as it can significantly influence survival outcomes, particularly in men.

Background: The widespread misuse of synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) has led to a notable increase in reported adverse effects, raising significant health concerns. SCs use has been particularly associated with acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the pathogenesis of SCs-induced AKI is not well-understood.

Objective: Herein we describe initial results in a porcine model of a fully implantable device designed to allow closed, repetitive photodynamic treatment of glioblastoma (GBM).

Methods: This implant, Globus Lucidus, is a transparent quartz glass sphere with light-emitting diodes releasing wavelengths of 630 nm (19.5 mW/cm), 405 nm (5.

Sustainable agriculture requires locally adapted varieties that produce nutritious food with limited agricultural inputs. Genome engineering represents a viable approach to develop cultivars that fulfill these criteria. For example, the red Hassawi rice, a native landrace of Saudi Arabia, tolerates local drought and high-salinity conditions and produces grain with diverse health-promoting phytochemicals.
