Cancer stem cells (CSC) are known to be the main source of tumor relapse, metastasis, or multidrug resistance and the mechanisms to counteract or eradicate them and their activity remain elusive. There are different hypotheses that claim that the origin of CSC might be in regular stem cells (SC) and, due to accumulation of mutations, these normal cells become malignant, or the source of CSC might be in any malignant cell that, under certain environmental circumstances, acquires all the qualities to become CSC. Multiple studies indicate that lifestyle and diet might represent a source of wellbeing that can prevent and ameliorate the malignant phenotype of CSC.

Introduction: Facility discharges following an elective, primary, total joint arthroplasty are infrequent, but are associated with poor outcomes and significant cost. Therefore, investigating ways to identify patients most likely to be discharged to a facility could improve patient care, reduce costs, and potentially lead to strategies to mitigate these risks.
Methods: A total of 3,198 patients who underwent a total hip or knee arthroplasty between June 2021 and June 2023 were included in this study.

Biomagnetic fluid dynamics (BFD) is an emerging and promising field within fluid mechanics, focusing on the dynamics of bio-fluids like blood in the presence of magnetic fields. This research is crucial in the medical arena for applications such as medication delivery, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, prevention of excessive bleeding, and treatment of malignant tumors using magnetic particles. This study delves into the intricacies of blood flow induced by cilia, carrying trihybrid nanoparticles (gold, copper, and titania), within a catheterized arterial annulus under a robust magnetic field.

Unlabelled: The SARS-CoV-2 JN.1 lineage emerged in late 2023 and quickly replaced the XBB lineages, becoming the predominant Omicron variant worldwide in 2024. We estimate the epidemiologic impact of this SARS-CoV-2 lineage replacement in Brazil and we further assessed the cross-reactive neutralizing antibody (NAb) responses in a cohort of convalescent Brazilian patients infected during 2023.

Growing recognition of the serious consequences of racism in the United States encourage organizations and agencies to move toward an anti-racist approach. Implicit racial bias trainings are one piece of the approach toward this end. While many such trainings are being conducted nationwide, it remains unclear what practices best encourage participation, engagement, and desired outcomes following implicit racial bias trainings.
