Mangosteen for malignancy prevention and intervention: Current evidence, molecular mechanisms, and future perspectives.

Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.), also known as the "queen of fruits", is a tropical fruit of the Clusiacea family. While native to Southeast Asian countries, such as Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, India, and the Philippines, the fruit has gained popularity in the United States due to its health-promoting attributes.

Disparities in Primary Breast Cancer Stage at Presentation Among Hispanic Subgroups.

Background: Although the United States (US) Hispanic population consists of diverse communities, prior breast cancer studies often analyze this group in aggregate. Our aim was to identify differences in breast cancer stage at presentation in the US population, with a particular focus on Hispanic subgroups.

Methods: Data from the National Cancer Database (NCDB) from 2004 to 2017 were used to select women with primary breast cancer; individuals were disaggregated by racial and ethnic subgroup and Hispanic country of origin.

Localized prostate cancer disparities in risk group at presentation and access to treatment for Hispanic men.

Background: Despite great heterogeneity amongst Hispanic groups, prostate cancer studies often report Hispanic patients in aggregate. We sought to identify differences in prostate cancer risk group at presentation and treatment status among Hispanic subgroup populations.

Methods: Patients with localized prostate adenocarcinoma diagnosed from 2004-2017 were identified in the National Cancer Database (NCDB) and disaggregated by racial subgroup and Hispanic country of origin.

Mathematical modelling of the conductivity in CZTiS-CZSnS as a function of synthesis temperature.

The electrical behavior of photovoltaic materials related with CuZnTiSand CuZnSnSmaterials were analyzed as function of synthesis temperature in accordance with a new mathematical model based on the Kramers-Kronig equations with a high reliability. The samples were obtained through a hydrothermal route and a subsequent thermal treatment of solids at 550 °C for 1 h under nitrogen flow (50 ml min). The characterization was done by x-ray diffraction, ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV), Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and solid state impedance spectroscopy (IS) techniques.
