These findings suggest, for psychiatrically hospitalized adolescent females, that different patterns of factors may contribute to the maintenance of eating and body image disturbances across ethnic groups. Future research testing models of the etiology or maintenance of these disturbances needs to include ethnicity to ascertain whether the hypothesized components operate differently by ethnicity.

Background: Constrictive pericarditis (CP) can arise from various causes, including post-operative degeneration, tuberculosis, and sequelae of pericarditis. Immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related disease is a rare but recognized cause of CP. However, the specific mechanisms underlying these aetiologies and pathologies remain unclear.

Background Aims: In clinical practice, the reduction of porto-caval pressure gradient (PCPG) following trans-jugular intra-hepatic porto-systemic shunt (TIPS) does not always meet the recommendation of current guidance. We evaluated the impact of different degrees of PCPG reduction, measured at the end of an elective TIPS, on ascites control, recurrence of portal hypertension-related bleeding (PHRB) and survival.

Approach And Results: Cirrhotic patients receiving TIPS for refractory ascites (RA) or for the secondary prophylaxis of PHRB were consecutively enrolled.

Background: Cancer is the deadliest disease, and neurological disorders are also marked as slow progressive diseases, ultimately leading to death. Stopping two mouths with one morsel was the strategy that we used in this study.

Methods: We have synthesized peony-shaped zinc oxide nanoflowers (ZnO-NFs) and characterized them using various photophysical tools like UV-vis spectroscopy, zeta potential analysis, dynamic light scattering (DLS), FTIR, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and utilized these nanoflowers to monitor their anticancer and anti-amyloid activity.

Background: The use of dapagliflozin in patients with cirrhosis has been relatively restricted due to concerns regarding its overall safety and pharmacological profile in this population.

Aim: To determine the safety and effectiveness of dapagliflozin in the co-management of diabetes mellitus and cirrhosis with or without ascites.

Methods: The patients studied were divided into two groups: 100 patients in the control group received insulin, while 200 patients received dapagliflozin.
