The impact of combined radiation protection upon damage to critical organs-spleen, small intestine, and bone marrow was studied in adult rat males 3 days after whole-body exposure to 9.5 Gy gamma-ray dose. Adeturone, the chemical radioprotector used, was administered intraperitoneally at 1/17 of its LD50 dose. Local shielding of the abdomino-lumbal region was accomplished using a lead ring providing on average 28-30% attenuation of radiation exposure. This degree of physical abdomino-lumbal protection combined with adeturone (50 mg/kg) pretreatment resulted in mutual enhancement of the components' action, expansion of the chemical agent's therapeutic range, providing a combination with improved overall antiradiation properties.

Background: This research investigates the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow, heat, and mass transfer of tangent hyperbolic ternary hybrid nanofluids over a permeable stretching sheet. The study considers three types of nanoparticles-aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), copper (Cu), and titanium oxide (TiO₂)-dispersed in a base fluid of ethylene glycol (C₂H₆O₂). This ternary hybrid nanofluid (Al₂O₃-Cu-TiO₂/C₂H₆O₂) has potential applications in cooling systems, biomedical uses for targeted drug delivery and hyperthermia treatments, heat exchangers, and polymer processing techniques like extrusion and casting.

New coordination complexes of 3d metals that possess photoactive metal-centered (MC) excited states are promising targets for optical applications and photocatalysis. Ultrafast spectroscopy plays an important role in elucidating the photophysical mechanisms that underlie photochemical activity. However, it can be difficult to assign transient signals to specific electronic excited states and mechanistic information is often inferred from kinetics.

Objective: The neglect of occult lymph nodes metastasis (OLNM) is one of the pivotal causes of early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) recurrence after local treatments such as stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) or surgery. This study aimed to develop and validate a computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics and deep learning (DL) fusion model for predicting non-invasive OLNM.
Methods: Patients with radiologically node-negative lung adenocarcinoma from two centers were retrospectively analyzed.

Pulmonary arterial intimal sarcoma (PAIS) is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor often associated with an unfavorable prognosis and lacks a standardized treatment approach to date. This report presents a notable case of PAIS treated with neoadjuvant therapy involving anlotinib concomitantly administered with chemotherapy of ifosfamide and pirarubicin, which resulted in a favorable outcome. A 38-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with chest tightness, cough, and dyspnea, all of which had persisted for more than a week.

Background: Patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) often have a personal and/or family history of breast cancers. However, the clinical association and underlying molecular interaction between breast cancer and HGSOC is not well understood. In this study, the clinical characteristics and outcomes of HGSOC patients with or without breast cancer were compared.
