Effect of probiotics on children with autism spectrum disorders: a meta-analysis.

Background: Researches have found that alteration of intestinal flora may be closely related to the development of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, whether probiotics supplementation has a protective effect on ASD remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to analyze the outcome of probiotics in the treatment of ASD children.

Comparison of the Efficacy of ECMO With or Without IABP in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock: A Meta-Analysis.

Objective: Studies on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) with and without an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) for cardiogenic shock (CS) have been published, but there have been no meta-analyses that compare the efficacy of these two cardiac support methods. This meta-analysis evaluated the outcomes of these two different treatment measures.

Methods: The PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Clinical Trials databases were searched until March 2022.

MicroRNA-24 inhibits the oxidative stress induced by vascular injury by activating the Nrf2/Ho-1 signaling pathway.

Background And Aims: The process of endothelial repair in diabetic patients after stent implantation was significantly delayed compared with that in non-diabetic patients, and oxidative stress is increasingly considered to be relevant to the pathogenesis of diabetic endothelial repair. However, the mechanisms linking diabetes and reendothelialization after vascular injury have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of microRNA-24 (miR-24) up-regulation in delayed endothelial repair caused by oxidative stress after balloon injury in diabetic rats.

Suv39h1 downregulation inhibits neointimal hyperplasia after vascular injury.

Background And Aims: Neointimal hyperplasia resulting from pathological vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) activation is a common pathophysiological basis for numerous proliferative vascular diseases, such as restenosis. Suv39h1, an important transcription suppressor, may be involved in this process. Herein, we investigated the role of Suv39h1 in pathological intimal hyperplasia and its possible mechanisms in vitro and in vivo.

Comparison of treatment outcomes of ticagrelor and clopidogrel among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis.

We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to investigate the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor (TIC) vs. clopidogrel (CLO) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In Jun 2016, a literature search was started and all the studies were conducted from 2010 to 2015.
