The influence of ENKAD on the course of a severe alkaline burn of the cornea was studied in 158 rabbits (316 eyes). Cytochemically, regularity in correlations of separate amino acids: cystin, cysteine, arginine and glutaminic acid in cellular proteins of the intact cornea was established and their disorder in dynamics of the burn process is shown. Comparative assessment of therapeutic effectiveness of ultrasound, applications, subconjunctival injections and phonophoresis of ENKAD has shown that a combined usage of ultrasound and ENKAD has the most expressed positive action on the course of the burn process of the corneal burn, such as acceleration of corneal epithelialization that accomplished, on the average, by the 9.3 +/- 0.3 day (in the control--by the 20.8 +/- 1.8 day), rapid disappearance of its perifocal edema--11.05 +/- 0.7 (in the control - 29.7 +/- 1.1) day, better outcomes after the burn (in 37.5% of cases superficial limited opacifications were formed, in the control--in 7.1%). One of the factors of therapeutic action of ENKAD phonophoresis is its normalizing influence on disturbed correlation of amino acids in proteins. The results obtained allow to recommend to include ENKAD phonophoresis into a complex treatment of patients with eye burns.

Background: Females with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy present at a more advanced stage of the disease and have a higher risk of heart failure and death. The factors behind these differences are unclear. We aimed to investigate sex-related differences in clinical and genetic factors affecting adverse outcomes in the Sarcomeric Human Cardiomyopathy Registry.

Background: Children from racial and ethnic minority groups are at greater risk for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, but it is unclear whether they have increased risk for post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC). Our objectives were to assess whether the risk of respiratory and neurologic PASC differs by race/ethnicity and social drivers of health.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of individuals <21 years seeking care at 24 health systems across the U.

Background: The Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP) indicators are essential in monitoring neonatal healthcare coverage and quality. The District Health Information System (DHIS2), an open-source platform in over 80 countries, supports health data collection and analysis, enabling progress tracking at national and subnational levels. This study evaluates the availability and quality of maternal and newborn health indicators, explicitly focusing on ENAP indicators within Tanzania's DHIS2.

Despite advancements in multiple myeloma treatment, prognostic variability persists. We investigated the impact of income and education on treatment and survival in a country with publicly funded healthcare. We analysed data from the Swedish Myeloma Registry (2008-2021) linked to national registers.

The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity. Accurately determining Al positions has been challenging. We used synchrotron resonant soft x-ray diffraction (RSXRD) at multiple energies near the Al K-edge combined with molecular adsorption techniques to precisely locate "single Al" and "Al pairs" in a commercial H-ZSM-5 zeolite.
