Article Synopsis
  • Turmeric essential oil (EO) possesses multiple beneficial properties, including insecticidal and anti-inflammatory effects, making it a strong candidate for pest control.
  • The study focused on the effectiveness of turmeric EO against the ectoparasitic tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) annulatus, using various tests to measure repellency and toxicity.
  • Findings revealed that the major compound Ar-turmerone in turmeric EO significantly repelled and killed adult and nymphal ticks, while also reducing their reproductive capabilities, highlighting its potential as an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic pesticides.

This retrospective observational study, building on prior research that demonstrated the efficacy of the Digital Twin (DT) Precision Treatment Program over shorter follow-up periods​​, aimed to examine glycemic control and reduced anti-diabetic medication use after one-year in a DT commercial program. T2D patients enrolled had adequate hepatic and renal function and no recent cardiovascular events. DT intervention powered by artificial intelligence utilizes precision nutrition, activity, sleep, and deep breathing exercises.

Diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27-altered (DMG) are highly aggressive malignancies of the central nervous system (CNS) that primarily affect the pediatric population. Large scale spatial transcriptomic studies have implicated that tumor microenvironmental landscape plays an important role in determining the phenotypic differences in tumor presentation and clinical course, however, data connecting overall transcriptomic changes to the protein level is lacking. The NanoString GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler platform was used to determine the spatial transcriptomic and proteomic landscape in a cohort of both pediatric and adult H3 K27-altered DMG biopsy samples.
