Experiments were conducted on male albino rats for 5 months; the activity of the liver aspartic and alaninaminotransferases underwent cyclic synchronized variations. Chronic 24-hour inhalation of vinylacetate in a concentration of 2.4 mg/m3 caused a transformation of the rhythms of these variations with the preservation of synchronization in the changes of the activity of the enzymes under study. With a greater concentration of vinylacetate (13.2 and 68 mg/m3) inducing chronic intoxication, desynchronization of transaminase variations was seen in the liver. A posssibility of correlation analysis use for determining the extent of synchronization in the activity of the enzymatic systems for the purpose of estimation of the toxic effect of the poisons is discussed.

Background: Pregnancy-associated atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a form of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) caused by uncontrolled activation of the complement system during pregnancy or the postpartum period. In the intensive care unit, aHUS must be differentiated from sepsis-related multiple organ dysfunction, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet (HELLP) syndrome. Early recognition of aHUS is critical for effective treatment and improved prognosis.

Background: Circular (circ)RNAs have emerged as crucial contributors to cancer progression. Nonetheless, the expression regulation, biological functions, and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in mediating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression remain insufficiently elucidated.
Methods: We identified circUCK2(2,3) through circRNA sequencing, RT-PCR, and Sanger sequencing.

Background: Neuregulin (NRG) family is involved in energy metabolism, among which NRG1 is a neuregulin proved to play a protective role in MAFLD cells. But the presice echanism has not been fully illustrated. This study aimed to investigate the role of NRG1 via the ERK/SIRT1 signaling in the pathogenesis of MAFLD.

The study aims to develop and validate an effective model for predicting frailty risk in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The cross-sectional analysis employed nationally representative data from CHARLS 2013-2015. The sample was randomly divided into training (70%) and validation sets (30%).

Pediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as a worldwide health concern with the potential to advance to cirrhosis and liver cancer. NAFLD can also directly contribute to heart problems through inflammation and insulin resistance, even in individuals without other risk factors. The pathological mechanisms of NAFLD are linked to functional differences of miRNAs in different biological environments.
