Evaluation of Femoston and Dydrogesterone therapy for incomplete abortion: a retrospective cohort study.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the efficacies of Femoston and Dydrogesterone therapy in patients with incomplete abortions.

Methods: Patients with incomplete abortions were included if they preferred medication over surgical intervention. The participants were categorized into three groups: the Femoston group received Femoston, the Dydrogesterone group was administered Dydrogesterone, and the control group was followed up without treatment.

Thermal Stability Improvement of Core Material via High Internal Phase Emulsion Gels.

Biocompatible particle-stabilized emulsions have gained significant attention in the biomedical industry. In this study, we employed dynamic high-pressure microfluidization (HPM) to prepare a biocompatible particle emulsion, which effectively enhances the thermal stability of core materials without the addition of any chemical additives. The results demonstrate that the HPM-treated particle-stabilized emulsion forms an interface membrane with high expansion and viscoelastic properties, thus preventing core material agglomeration at elevated temperatures.

Evaluation of different doses of Femoston therapy for incomplete abortion: A prospective observational trial.

This study aimed to compare the efficacy of different doses of femoston with expectant management in patients with incomplete abortions. Patients diagnosed with incomplete abortion were included if they chose to continue medical treatment after relevant contraindications were excluded. Participants were divided into 3 groups: the femoston (1/10) and femoston (2/10) groups received different doses of femoston, and patients in the control group received expectant treatment.

Conformational entropy of hyaluronic acid contributes to taste enhancement.

Natural taste/flavor enhancers are essential ingredients that could potentially address condiments overconsumption. For the first time, we report that hyaluronic acid (HA) could modulate taste perception, governed by the dynamic interactions among taste compounds, mucin, and HA. Various conformations of HA impact taste perception.

Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) and 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl Coenzyme a Reductase (HMGCR) Expression are Associated with Platinum-Resistance and Prognosis in Ovarian Carcinoma Patients.

Purpose: The efficacy of post-surgery platinum-based chemotherapy, the primary choice for the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC), is greatly reduced by the development of drug-resistance. In this study, we investigated the association of expression low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR), two cholesterol metabolism-related proteins, in OC tissues and chemoresistance and patient prognosis.

Methods: Survival analysis using LDLR and HMGCR expression in the ovarian cancer patients using the dataset of Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was carried out online.

Identification of Three Potential Prognostic Genes in Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer via Integrated Bioinformatics Analysis.

Purpose: Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy affects the overall survival of patients. This study used an integrated bioinformatics to find the poorly understood molecular mechanisms underlying platinum resistance in ovarian cancer.

Face classification using electronic synapses.

Conventional hardware platforms consume huge amount of energy for cognitive learning due to the data movement between the processor and the off-chip memory. Brain-inspired device technologies using analogue weight storage allow to complete cognitive tasks more efficiently. Here we present an analogue non-volatile resistive memory (an electronic synapse) with foundry friendly materials.

HfO2/Al2O3 multilayer for RRAM arrays: a technique to improve tail-bit retention.

In this work, the HfO2/Al2O3 multilayer structure is applied for RRAM arrays. Compared to HfO2 RRAM, the data retention failure of tail bits is suppressed significantly, especially for the high resistance state (HRS). The retention of tail bits is studied in detail by temperature simulation and crystallization analysis.
