Associations Between Partial Common Extensor Tendon Tears and Clinical-Ultrasonographic Findings in Patients with Lateral Epicondylitis.

Objective: This study investigates the effect of partial common extensor tendon(CET) tears on demographic, clinical and ultrasound(US) parameters in patients with lateral epicondylitis(LE). The research aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how these US-detected partial tears, influence the clinical presentation and imaging findings associated with LE.

Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study.

Are Nutrition Literacy and Sustainable Dietary Habits Associated with Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Developmental Risks?

Objective: This study aimed to examine the association of nutritional literacy levels and sustainable nutritional behaviors with the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and diabetes in the Turkish adult population.

Methods: Sociodemographic information, disease history, nutritional habits, and physical activity levels of 3146 volunteer individuals (male = 1590, female = 1556) between the ages of 40-75 were collected using a questionnaire form and face-to-face interviews. The sustainable nutritional behaviors of the participants were evaluated using Turkish validated scales for Sustainable and Healthy Eating Behavior (SHE) and nutritional literacy levels with the Evaluation Instrument of Nutrition Literacy on Adults (EINLA).

Effect of accumulating experience on diagnostic performance of VI-RADS in bladder cancer.

Purpose: MRI-based VI-RADS score aids in differentiating MIBC and NMIBC, but the experience's impact remains unexplored. We aimed to determine the effect of accumulating experience in the diagnostic performance of VI-RADS.

Methods: In our previously published series 71 primary bladder cancer patients who underwent multiparametric MRI before the transurethral resection were analyzed.

Effects of N-acetylcysteine on sciatic nerve healing: A histopathological, functional, and biochemical study of the rat sciatic nerve.

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the histopathological, biochemical, and functional effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective activity, on nerve regeneration in rats with sciatic nerve crush (axonotmesis) injury.

Materials And Methods: This study used 16 male Wistar rats, which were divided into treatment and control groups. A standard axonotmesis-type surgical injury was induced in the left sciatic nerves of all rats.

Epigenetic and Oncogenic Inhibitors Cooperatively Drive Differentiation and Kill KRAS-Mutant Colorectal Cancers.

Combined EZH2 and RAS pathway inhibitors kill KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer cells and promote durable tumor regression in vivo. These agents function by cooperatively suppressing the WNT pathway, driving differentiation, and epigenetically reprogramming cells to permit the induction of apoptotic signals, which then kill these more differentiated tumor cells.
