Efficacy and safety of hypofractionated radiotherapy versus conventional fractionated radiotherapy in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) stands as the predominant type of brainstem glioma. It is characterized by a notably brief median survival period, with the majority of patients experiencing disease progression within six months following radiation therapy. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the efficacy and safety of hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT) compared to conventionally fractionated radiotherapy (CFRT) in DIPG treatment.

Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to the primary tumor and lymph nodes in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) who are ineligible for or refused concomitant chemoradiation.

Materials And Methods: In accordance with the PRISMA and MOOSE guidelines, a systematic review with meta-analysis was conducted. The study included reports that assessed the outcomes of SABR treatment in patients with LA-NSCLC.

Açaí Flan, A Functional Food with HN001 Probiotic: Physicochemical Characteristics, Probiotic Survival, Sensory Acceptance and Consumer Perception.

Research Background: Açaí berry is rich in antioxidant compounds and is therefore closely associated with beneficial health effects. In this study, we aim to investigate the potential of using HN001 as a probiotic culture on açaí flan.

Experimental Approach: The chemical composition, physicochemical and microbiological characteristics, and sensory acceptance during refrigerated storage (5 °C for 42 days) of flan were investigated.
