The current landscape of 1,2,3-triazole-(fused) six-membered nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic ring hybrids with anticancer therapeutic potential.

Cancer, characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells potentially influencing almost all tissues in the body, is one of the most devastating and lethal diseases throughout the world. Chemotherapy is one of the principal approaches for cancer treatment, but multidrug resistance and severe side effects represent the main barriers to the success of therapy, creating a vital need to develop novel chemotherapeutic agents. The 1,2,3-triazole moiety can be conveniently constructed by "click chemistry" and could exert diverse noncovalent interactions with various enzymes in cancer cells.

HIV risk and influence factors among MSM who had sought sexual partners in core venues: a continuous sentinel surveillance in 2010-2022.

Background: Seeking sexual partners in men who have sex with men (MSM) venues has been regarded as a high-risk behavior for HIV among MSM. Nevertheless, with the implementation of venue-based interventions and the change in the way MSM seek sexual partners, the continued status of MSM venues as the HIV risk factor remains inconclusive. This study endeavors to delve into this ambiguity by examining the MSM sexual contact network (SCN) as a foundation.

The immune mechanisms of acute exacerbations of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Acute exacerbations of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (AE-IPF) are the leading cause of mortality among patients with IPF. There is still a lack of effective treatments for AE-IPF, resulting in a hospitalization mortality rate as high as 70%-80%. To reveal the complicated mechanism of AE-IPF, more attention has been paid to its disturbed immune environment, as patients with IPF exhibit deficiencies in pathogen defense due to local immune dysregulation.

Association of calf circumference with osteoporosis and hip fracture in middle-aged and older adults: a secondary analysis.

Background: Osteosarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome associated with an increased risk of frailty, falls, fractures, disability, and death. Calf circumference (CC) has been used as a simple and practical skeletal muscle marker to diagnose sarcopenia. This study aimed to explore the relationship of calf circumference and osteoporosis (OP) and hip fractures (HF) in middle-aged and older adults.

Exercise electrocardiogram combined with cadmium zinc tellurium (CZT) cardiac-dedicated single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) predicts coronary artery disease.

Aim: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a primary cause of mortality, prompting ongoing research into noninvasive diagnostic modalities. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of exercise electrocardiography testing (EET) combined with cadmium zinc tellurium cardiac-dedicated single photon emission computed tomography (CZT-SPECT) imaging for CAD.

Materials And Methods: CZT-SPECT and EET were examined in 124 patients aged 20-85 years, followed by coronary angiography to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of EET/CZT-SPECT alone and in combination.
