In the dynamics of a chronic experiment and after it, the state of the cornea and blood circulation in the uveal tract were investigated, along with the morphological studies of the occipital areas of the brain (area 17) and calculations of the thermal processes in the cornea tissues. Results of the complex studies confirmed that opacification of the cornea was not induced by the damaging heat effect of the CO2-laser irradiation with the energy of illumination at 4.2 x 10(-2) Wt.cm-2 in 120 day-long period.

Increased resting heart rate indicates high-workload hearts with augmented aortic hydraulic power in hypertensive pigs.

Clarifying the inceptive pathophysiology of hypertensive heart disease helps to impede the disease progression. Through coarctation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta (AA), we induced hypertension in minipigs and evaluated physiological reactions and morpho-functional changes of the heart. Moderate aortic coarctation was achieved with approximately 30 mmHg systolic pressure gradient in minipigs.

Background And Objectives: the COVID-19 pandemic underscored the necessity of understanding the factors influencing susceptibility and disease severity, as well as a better recovery of functional status, especially in postcritical patients. evidence regarding the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation in reducing the severity of COVID-19 is still insufficient due to the lack of primary robust trial-based data and heterogeneous study designs. the principal aims of our study were to determine the impact of vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency on complications during intensive care unit (icu) stay, as well as its role in muscle mass and strength improvement as well as morphofunctional recovery during a multispecialty 6-month follow-up program based on adapted nutritional support and specific physical rehabilitation.

Joint Research Unit on Endocrinology, Nutrition and Clinical Dietetics, Health Research Institute La Fe, 46026 Valencia, Spain.
Background: Disease-related malnutrition (DRM) and sarcopenia are prevalent conditions in gastrointestinal cancer patients, whose early diagnosis is essential to establish a nutritional treatment that contributes to optimizing adverse outcomes and improving prognosis. Phase angle (PhA) and rectus femoris ultrasound measurements are considered effort-independent markers of muscle wasting, which remains unrecognized in oncology patients.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the potential utility of PhA, rectus femoris cross-sectional area (RFCSA), and rectus femoris thickness (RF-Y-axis) in predicting malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with esophagogastric cancer (EGC).

Background: Inflammation-induced oxidative stress is a pathophysiological mechanism of inflammatory diseases. Treatments targeting oxidative stress can reduce inflammatory tissue damage.
Objectives: This study aimed to conduct phytochemical analysis and evaluate the antioxidant effects of the hydroalcoholic extract of blossoms () and rhizomes ().
Alkaline phosphatase decline and pain response as predictors of overall survival benefit in patients treated with radium-223: a post hoc analysis of the REASSURE study.

Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Background: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) declines and pain responses can occur during radium-223 (Ra) treatment, but their association with treatment outcomes is unclear.
Methods: For patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with Ra in the REASSURE study, we investigated whether ALP decline (Week 12) and/or pain response (during treatment) are associated with improved overall survival (OS). The Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF) was used to assess pain at baseline and pain response (in patients with baseline BPI-SF score ≥2).
