Objective: to evaluate the role of local cold applied to the tips on the prevention of palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia (PPE) caused by pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD).
Materials And Methods: from may 2006 to june 2009, 8 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma mycosis fungoides type were treated with PLD. The median age was 56 years and was administered a total of 63 cycle, with an average of 7.87 cycle per person, with a dose of PLD 20 mg/m2 every 2 weeks. All patients had premedication with dexamethasone, ondasetron and pyridoxine. At the time all were given prophylaxis with local cold for an hour
Results: only one patient had grade 4 PPE (12.5%), which appeared after the first cycle, subsequent can manage a total of 10. In absolute terms was recorded EPP grade 4 only 1.58% of cycles administered (1/63). In the remaining patients there was no degree of EPP.
Conclusions: this paper demonstrates the effectiveness of several preventive measures (pyridoxine, corticosteroid and local cold) in the prevention of the PPE.

Thermopile sensor arrays provide a sufficient counterbalance between person detection and localization while preserving privacy through low resolution. The latter is especially important in the context of smart building automation applications. Current research has shown that there are two machine learning-based algorithms that are particularly prominent for general object detection: You Only Look Once (YOLOv5) and Detection Transformer (DETR).

Intense sources of very cold neutrons (VCNs) would be beneficial for various neutron scattering techniques and low-energy particle physics experiments. Binary clathrate hydrates hosting deuterated tetrahydrofuran (THF-d) and dioxygen show promise as potential moderators for such sources due to a rich spectrum of localized low-energy excitations of the encaged guest molecules. In this article, we present a reliable manufacturing technique for such hydrates.

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are a class of proteins associated with osmotic regulation and plant tolerance to abiotic stress. However, studies on the gene family in the alpine cold-tolerant herb are still limited, and the phylogenetic evolution and biological functions of its family members remain unclear. In this study, we conducted genome-wide identification, phylogenetic evolution, and abiotic stress response analyses of family genes in species, alpine cold-tolerant medicinal herbs in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and adjacent regions.

Background/objectives: Cold stress is the main environmental factor that affects the growth and development of rice, leading to a decrease in its yield and quality. However, the molecular mechanism of rice's low-temperature resistance remains incompletely understood.
Methods: In this study, we conducted a joint analysis of miRNA and mRNA expression profiles in the cold-resistant material Yongning red rice and the cold-sensitive material B3 using high-throughput sequencing.

Milk has been consumed by humans for thousands of years for its nutritional properties. In recent years, raw milk demand has increased, valued for its authenticity and connection to local traditions. In Italy, the sale of raw milk is allowed exclusively through direct sale from the producing farm to the final consumer, either at the producing farm itself or through vending machines.
