Proficiency, Clarity, and Objectivity of Large Language Models Versus Specialists' Knowledge on COVID-19 Impacts in Pregnancy: A Cross-Sectional Pilot Study.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly strained healthcare systems globally, leading to an overwhelming influx of patients and exacerbating resource limitations. Concurrently, an "infodemic" of misinformation, particularly prevalent in women's health, has emerged. This challenge has been pivotal for healthcare providers, especially gynecologists and obstetricians, in managing pregnant women's health.

Unique and Common Agonists Activate the Insect Juvenile Hormone Receptor and the Human AHR.

Transcription factors of the bHLH-PAS family play vital roles in animal development, physiology, and disease. Two members of the family require binding of low-molecular weight ligands for their activity: the vertebrate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and the insect juvenile hormone receptor (JHR). In the fly Drosophila melanogaster, the paralogous proteins GCE and MET constitute the ligand-binding component of JHR complexes.

β-Tricalcium phosphate incorporated natural rubber latex membranes for calvarial bone defects: Physicochemical, in vitro and in vivo assessment.

Natural rubber latex membrane (NRL) is a biocompatible macromolecule that stimulates angiogenesis and promotes bone repair. Similarly, β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is an osteoconductive and osteoinductive bioceramic widely used as a bone substitute. Here, we investigated the combined use of these biomaterials in the guided bone regeneration process for calvarial defects in rats.
