The effects of food anthropomorphism on consumer behavior: A systematic literature review with integrative framework and future research directions.

Anthropomorphizing or humanizing food is a common marketing practice that has gained significant scholarly attention in the past few years. The present systematic review analyzes articles that examined the effects of anthropomorphizing various food and food ingredients on consumers' behavior to synthesize the existing body of work into an integrative framework, provide managerial recommendations, and identify avenues for future research. Using the Prisma 2020 statement for systematic reviews, a systematic search of four databases (EBSCO, PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science) for peer-reviewed, quantitative articles published in English till the March 10, 2023 was undertaken, resulting in a final number of 21 articles meeting our selection criteria.

Acute Gastric Volvulus With Wandering Spleen in a Two-Year-Old Child: A Rare Association.

Gastric volvulus is a rare clinical condition characterized by a pathological rotation of the stomach greater than 180º around its axis. The wandering spleen is also an exceptional clinical entity characterized by the absence or laxity of splenic ligaments which lead to splenic mobility in the abdominal cavity from its normal anatomical site. Wandering spleen and gastric volvulus association is unusual.

Role of cyclin D1 in glial tumors-A retrospective and observational study.

Aim: High-grade glial tumors remain as one of the most lethal malignancies. Cyclin D1 is expressed in some human malignancies and is the potential target of intervention. The present study aims to determine the relationship of cyclin D1 expression with other clinicopathological parameters.

Primary pulmonary Hodgkin's lymphoma with pulmonary histoplasmosis.

Primary pulmonary Hodgkins lymphoma is a rare and enigmatic neoplasm commonly seen in females. The aim of this case report is to emphasize that pulmonary lymphoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis in a young patient presenting with a lung mass and B symptoms. Extensive clinical details, imaging should be done to rule out the secondary involvement of lung by other lymphomas.

Time-Resolved Oxygen Exchange Measurements Offer Novel Mechanistic Insights into Enzyme-Catalyzed ATP Synthesis during Photophosphorylation.

Techniques to probe molecular mechanistic events occurring at a single catalytic site of multi-subunit enzymes in real time are few and are still under development. Here time-resolved information is extracted from measurements of the extensive oxygen exchange that occurs at an intermediate stage of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis during photophosphorylation by chloroplast thylakoids. A stochastic process-based approach for modeling exchange reactions is formulated that provides a physical basis for the kinetic theory.

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Colon Cancer: an Institutional Experience.

Lymph node staging is a major prognostic factor in colorectal cancer and remains to be the most important criterion for selecting patients for adjuvant therapy. The standard approach for lymph node evaluation is based on manual dissection and histological evaluation of HE-stained slides. For stage III disease (node positive), adjuvant chemotherapy increases the survival rate, while in node-negative stage II disease, in most cases, the chemotherapy is contraindicated due to increased morbidity without real benefit.

Teaching Silver Diamine Fluoride in U.S. Dental Schools' Predoctoral Curricula.

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF), a low-cost topical agent used in many countries to arrest dental caries, was cleared as a desensitizing agent by the Food & Drug Administration for the U.S. market in 2014.

Clinical, endoscopic, and histological differentiation between celiac disease and tropical sprue: A systematic review.

Background And Aim: While the prevalence of celiac disease (CD) is increasing globally, the prevalence of tropical sprue (TS) is declining. Still, there are certain regions in the world where both patients with CD and TS exist and differentiation between them is a challenging task. We conducted a systematic review of the literature to find out differentiating clinical, endoscopic, and histological characteristics between CD and TS.

A novel homozygous mutation in POLR3A gene causing 4H syndrome: a case report.

Background: 4H syndrome is a congenital hypomyelinating leukodystrophy characterized by hypodontia, hypomyelination and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism belonging to the Pol III-related leukodystrophies which arise due to mutations in the POLR3A or POLR3B gene. The clinical presentation is of neurodevelopmental delay or regression with ataxia, dystonia, nystagmus, delayed deciduous dentition and abnormal order of eruption of teeth. MRI brain shows a characteristic hypomyelination pattern.

Clinical and Hematological Profile of Patients with Dengue Fever at a Tertiary Care Hospital - An Observational Study.

Background: Dengue is a major health issue with seasonal rise in dengue fever cases imposing an additional burden on hospitals, necessitating bolstering of services in the emergency department, laboratory with creation of additional dengue fever wards.

Objectives: To study the clinical and hematological profile of dengue fever cases presenting to a hospital.

Methods: Patients with fever and other signs of dengue with either positive NS1 antigen test or IgM or IgG antibody were included.

Primary Calvarial Tuberculosis: a report of three cases.

Calvarial tuberculosis is rare presentation and has been reported in only about 0.01% of all patients with mycobacterial infections. Though rare, the incidence of Calvarial tuberculosis seems to be on the rise, especially in developing countries.

Primary Spinal Intramedullary Neurocysticercosis: A Report of 3 Cases.

We describe a series of 3 cases of the rare intramedullary form of primary spinal neurocysticercosis. The cases were seen in varied age groups and showed different profiles at presentation. All the cases were thoroughly evaluated clinically and radiologically.

Patients with mild enteropathy have apoptotic injury of enterocytes similar to that in advanced enteropathy in celiac disease.

Background: Severity of villous atrophy in celiac disease (CeD) is the cumulative effect of enterocyte loss and cell regeneration. Gluten-free diet has been shown to benefit even in patients having a positive anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody titre and mild enteropathy.

Aim: We explored the balance between mucosal apoptotic enterocyte loss and cell regeneration in mild and advanced enteropathies.

Interpretation of ileal biopsies.

The ileum is one of the most common sites of intestine to undergo endoscopic biopsy. However, even with the experienced histopathologists, a definite diagnosis can be achieved only in 18% cases. Lack of knowledge about proper tissue handling, tissue orientation, overlapping histological findings, and lack of a standard algorithm based approach results in this low diagnostic yield.

Potentiation of cocaine-primed reinstatement of drug seeking in female rats during estrus.

Rationale: Gender differences exist in the patterns of drug taking in cocaine addiction, suggesting that the propensity to relapse varies between men and women. Previous reports have shown sex differences in both cocaine-primed and conditioned-cued reinstatement of cocaine-seeking behavior, including recent evidence that the estrous cycle influences the level of conditioned-cued reinstatement. However, the influence of the estrous cycle on cocaine-primed reinstatement has not been examined.

Influence of sex and estrous cyclicity on conditioned cue-induced reinstatement of cocaine-seeking behavior in rats.

Rationale: Sex differences have been reported in physiological and behavioral responses to cocaine, but it is unclear whether sex differences exist in conditioned-cued relapse to cocaine seeking after prolonged abstinence. Furthermore, the role of estrous cyclicity in conditioned-cued relapse has not been investigated.

Objective: We assessed the influence of sex and estrous cyclicity on conditioned-cued reinstatement of drug-seeking behavior in Sprague-Dawley rats.

The role of the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, basolateral amygdala, and dorsal hippocampus in contextual reinstatement of cocaine seeking in rats.

The present study tested the hypothesis that separate neural substrates mediate cocaine relapse elicited by drug-associated contextual stimuli vs explicit conditioned stimuli (CSs) and cocaine. Specifically, we investigated the involvement of the dorsal hippocampus (DH), basolateral amygdala (BLA), and dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) in contextual reinstatement of cocaine-seeking behavior and the involvement of the DH in explicit CS- and cocaine-induced reinstatement. Rats were trained to self-administer cocaine in a distinct context or in the presence of CSs paired explicitly with cocaine infusions.
