Efficacy of ticagrelor and clopidogrel in treating unstable angina and their effects on serum inflammatory factors.

To evaluate the comparative efficacy of Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel in treating patients with coronary heart disease and unstable angina, as well as their effects on serum inflammatory factors, thereby providing a solid foundation for future clinical diagnosis and treatment. The frequency of angina attacks in the Ticagrelor group was lower than in the Clopidogrel group (P<0.05).

Survival benefit of surgery vs radiotherapy alone to patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma: a propensity score-matched analysis.

Objectives: We compared the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of patients who received radiotherapy and surgery, respectively, in a large population.

Methods: In this study, we counted the patients diagnosed with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma in the SEER database from 2015 to 2019. We compared the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) through Kaplan Meier analysis, balanced the differences of primary data through propensity score matching (PSM), screened independent prognostic factors through Cox regression analysis, and then compared the survival differences of different treatment methods through hierarchical analysis.

A scoping review of human genetic resources management policies and databases in high- and middle-low-income countries.

Background: This review examines global human genetic resources management, focusing on genetic data policies and repositories in high- and middle-low-income countries.

Methods: A comprehensive search strategy was employed across multiple databases, including official government websites and Google, to gather relevant literature on human genetic resources management policies and genetic resource databases. Documents were screened for relevance, focusing on high-income countries (United States, United Kingdom, Japan) and middle-low-income countries (China, India, Kenya).

The Consistency of Plasma Catecholamines and Metanephrines Analysis in China: A Comparison of Three Mainstream Commercially Available Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry Kit Methods.

Objective: The consistency of plasma catecholamines and metanephrines measurements is crucial for the screening and diagnosis in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs). There are many commercially available kits for plasma catecholamines and metanephrines testing, but their performance and consistency information are unknown. This study evaluated the performance of three mainstream commercially available LC-MS/MS kit methods and evaluated their consistency.

Synergizing oxygen vacancy engineering and f-Electron doping to Promote dynamics of Rare-Earth-Doped bismuth Oxyhalides for photocatalysis.

Efficient exciton dissociation and surface molecular oxygen activation are crucial for advancing photocatalysis in energy and environmental applications. However, photocatalytic performance is often limited by complex electron-nuclear interactions and strong exciton binding energies, primarily due to significant exciton effects. In this work, we introduce a novel strategy to enhance exciton dissociation by doping samarium (Sm) into bismuth oxoiodide (BiOI) to modulate the concentration of oxygen vacancies (Ov).
