Carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication is one of the most common types of poisoning. Cardiac manifestations of CO poisoning are limited to case reports of Electrocardiogram (ECG) changes, myocardial dysfunction and myocardial ischemia. A 22 year old Saudi male was admitted to the emergency department with decreased level of consciousness after being involved in a fire at home. ECG showed first degree AV block. To the best of our knowledge, this case report is the first CO poisoning case in the literature presented with first degree AV block.

Objective: Interleukin-17 E (IL-17E) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that participates in the inflammatory response and tumorigenesis. However, the function of IL-17E in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains largely unknown.
Methods: The clinical value of IL-17E was determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 75 cases of NSCLC tissues.

Pd-based nanocatalysts hold significant promise for application in alkaline direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs). To address the challenges of low Pd atom utilization and poor reaction kinetics in conventional Pd-based catalysts, a self-etching strategy has been developed to synthesize PdPb nanoparticles (NPs) with tunable size and abundant tensile strain. The nanoparticles demonstrated a markedly enhanced electrocatalytic performance.

However, there is no consistent definition of how to classify people with SCD. This study investigated if individual questions in the Cognitive Change Index (CCI) and Everyday Cognition Scale (ECog), commonly used to classify SCD, are associated with brain volume and WMHs to the same degree.

Regional anesthesia is a popular method for surgical anesthesia in clavicular surgery. Selective blocking of the cervical 3, 4, and 5 nerve roots shows promise in clavicle surgery, with its fast onset, good anesthesia and less complications, necessitating evaluation of its impact on diaphragmatic function. The purpose of this study is to examine the safety of C3, 4, and 5 nerve root block for its application in clavicle surgery.

To prepare amphiphilic diblock copolymers (MP), a controlled radical polymerization approach was employed, incorporating hydrophilic poly(2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) with hydrophobic poly(3-methoxypropyl acrylate) (PMPA). The synthesized diblock copolymers feature a PMPC block with a degree of polymerization (DP) of 100 and a PMPA block with DP (=) values of 171 and 552. The hydrophilic PMPC block exhibits biocompatibility, such as inhibition of platelet and protein adsorption, because of its hydrophilic pendant zwitterionic phosphorylcholine groups that have the same chemical structure as cell membrane surfaces.
