Between 1987-1996, 484 patients with laryngeal cancer were treated by surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy. The 25-30% therapeutic gain was noted when to compare the first period of the study (1987-1992) with the second (1993-1996). The increment of effectiveness of combined treatment for larynx cancer is probably the result of better quality of surgical procedures and individualization of radiation treatment.

Objective: Cognitive impairment (CI) is highly prevalent in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway plays a critical role in neuronal survival in a variety of central nervous system injuries. This study aimed to determine whether electroacupuncture (EA) at and LI20 ameliorates SAH-CI in a rat model and to examine whether it modulates the PI3K/AKT pathway by administering a PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) versus dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) vehicle.

Electrochemical water splitting is a promising approach to convert renewable energy into hydrogen energy and is beneficial for alleviating environmental pollution and energy crises, and is considered a clean method to achieve dual-carbon goals. Electrocatalysts can effectively reduce the reaction energy barrier and improve reaction efficiency. However, designing electrocatalysts with high activity and stability still faces significant challenges, which are closely related to the structure and electronic configuration of catalysts.

MXenes are a class of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXT) that have attracted significant interest owing to their remarkable potential in various fields. The unique combination of their excellent electromagnetic, optical, mechanical, and physical properties have extended their applications to the biological realm as well. In particular, their ultra-thin layered structure holds specific promise for diverse biomedical applications.

Background: Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) is a commonly used antibiotic for the treatment of several infections, such as urinary tract infections, respiratory infections, and in certain cases, septic arthritis. Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is very rare and less than 20 cases have been reported, so far, in the literature, in particular in immunocompromised patients. Here, we report a case of TMP-SMX-induced RM in an immunocompetent patient, adding to the limited data on this association.

Background: Postmenopausal women (PMW) who complete menopause at a late age (55+ years) have lower cardiovascular disease risk than PMW who complete menopause at a normal age (45-54 years). However, the influence of late-onset menopause on vascular endothelial dysfunction is unknown. Moreover, the mechanisms by which a later age at menopause may modulate endothelial function remain to be determined.
