Melatonin prevents nicotine-induced hepatotoxicity by modulating apoptosis and histopathological changes in rats.

Nicotine, the main toxic component of tobacco, directly or indirectly causes adverse effects on the liver metabolism. Melatonin, secreted by the pineal gland, has anti-apoptotic activity as well as antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to reveal the antiapoptotic effects of melatonin in rats with experimentally induced chronic liver damage with nicotine.

Unveiling genetic signatures associated with resilience to neonatal diarrhea in lambs through two GWAS approaches.

Neonatal diarrhea presents a significant global challenge due to its multifactorial etiology, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates, and substantial economic losses. While molecular-level studies on genetic resilience/susceptibility to neonatal diarrhea in farm animals are scarce, prior observations indicate promising research directions. Thus, the present study utilizes two genome-wide association approaches, pKWmEB and MLM, to explore potential links between genetic variations in innate immunity and neonatal diarrhea in Karacabey Merino lambs.

Age-specific analysis of anti-müllerian hormone and liver biochemical parameters in freemartin holstein calves and heifers: A pilot study.

Freemartinism is the most common congenital anomaly among sexual disorders in dairy cows. This syndrome typically occurs in different-sex twin pregnancies and causes vascular anastomoses to form with the placenta in the early stages of fetal development. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) levels in calves and heifers of different age groups for diagnostic factors and to investigate the potential consequences of different hormone levels in different age groups on some liver biochemical parameters.

Determination of drug-related problems according to PAIR criteria in dialysis patients: a cross-sectional study in tertiary care hospital.

Background: Dialysis patients are at high risk for drug-related problems (DRPs), which have significant consequences for their morbidity, mortality, and quality of life. Improved clinical outcomes can be achieved by preventing, identifying, and resolving these problems.

Methods: This is a retrospective observational study.

Adipose tissue indices predict prognosis in hodgkin lymphoma.

Introduction Background: This study evaluated the impact of adipose tissue indices on prognosis of HL.

Methods: Fifty-five patients with newly diagnosed Hodgkin Lymphoma were evaluated retrospectively for association with adipose tissue indices (total abdominal tissue volume, radiodensity, subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue SUVmax value and prognostic factors for Hodgkin Lymphoma such as IPS-3, IPS-7, stage, sedimentation, progression free and overall survival.

Results: For IPS-3, SAT SUVmax and TAAT radiodensity were significantly increased in high-risk patients (2and 3) compared to group 0 and 1.
