The Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Cissus Quadrangularis among Postmenopausal Women with Osteopenia.

Background: Osteopenia refers to bone density that is not only normal but also not as low as that noted in osteoporosis. Osteopenia leads to osteoporosis and increases the risk of fractures. Current research is focused on agents that will prevent or slow the progression of bone loss.

Positive feedback regulation between RpoS and BosR in the Lyme disease pathogen.

In , the Lyme disease pathogen, differential gene expression is primarily controlled by the alternative sigma factor RpoS (σ). Understanding how RpoS levels are regulated is crucial for elucidating how is maintained throughout its enzootic cycle. Our recent studies have shown that a homolog of Fur/PerR repressor/activator, BosR, functions as an RNA-binding protein that controls the mRNA stability.

An Interesting Image of Carcinoma Breast with Renal Calyceal Diverticulum Mimicking Renal Metastasis on [18F]FDG PET/CT Scan.

A diverticulum is an outpouching of a hollow (or fluid-filled) structure in the body. They are most commonly seen in the urinary bladder, intestine, and pharyngeal region and are rarely seen in renal calyces. They are usually benign, asymptomatic, and are coincidentally detected.
