A comparative study on the clinical efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of methimazole and propylthiouracil in managing pregnancy complicated with hyperthyroidism.

The objective of the study was to compare the clinical efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of methimazole and propylthiouracil in managing hyperthyroidism during pregnancy. This retrospective analysis included 100 pregnant women with hyperthyroidism, who were divided into two groups: the methimazole group (Group A) and the propylthiouracil group (Group B). Indicators such as thyroid function, liver function, pregnancy outcomes, and newborn health were closely monitored.

Artificial Intelligence Based Study Association between p53 Gene Polymorphism and Endometriosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: The P53 gene is critical to the onset and progression of cancers. Currently, relevant study findings indicate that the p53 gene may have a strong association with the risk of endometriosis, but these findings have not been united. To gather more statistically meaningful clinical data, we used meta-analysis to examine the relationship between the rs1042522 single nucleotide polymorphism of the tumor suppressor gene p53 and the incidence of endometriosis.

Effect of Liquid Crystalline Texture of Mesophase Pitches on the Structure and Property of Large-Diameter Carbon Fibers.

Two types of carbon fibers with a large diameter of ∼22 μm, derived from unstirred and vigorously stirred mesophase pitch melts with different liquid crystalline mesophase textures, were prepared by melt-spinning, stabilization, carbonization, and graphitization treatments. The morphology, microstructure, and physical properties of the carbon fibers derived from the two kinds of mesophase precursors after various processes were characterized in detail. The results show that the optical texture (i.
