The objectives of the present study were: 1. To investigate the nature and time course of the biochemical and cytological changes following acute and subchronic exposure intervals. 2. To investigate the dependence of the response upon the pulmonary burden of the test material. Alveolar clearance measurements were performed in parallel and are presented in a separate poster (1).

Objective: Molecular testing is recommended for risk stratification of atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) nodules in the USA; however, it is not routinely performed in some countries owing to limited availability and affordability. Here, we propose a risk stratification algorithm for AUS nodules when molecular testing is unavailable.

Methods: We examined 304 (4.

Petal senescence represents a crucial phase in the developmental continuum of flowers, ensuing tissue differentiation and petal maturation, yet anteceding seed formation and development. Instigation of petal senescence entails myriad of changes at the cytological, physiological and molecular dimensions, mirroring the quintessential characteristics of cell death. In the current investigation biochemical and molecular intricacies were scrutinized across various developmental stages (bud to the senescent phase).

Background: Diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) remains challenging. Studies have shown that detecting cell-free (cf-TB) DNA in pleural effusion can improve TPE diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of our recently developed TB One-Pot assay, which combines cross-priming amplification with CRISPR-Cas12b, in detecting cf-TB for TPE.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study involved analyzing 74 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from meningitis patients in Karachi using various testing methods, including biochemical and microbial analyses.
  • * While traditional analyses didn't provide a clear diagnosis, specific testing techniques like PCR revealed the presence of the amoeba in one of the CSF samples, confirming its role in PAM.
