Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)is important in hematopoiesis and affect cell growth,differentiation and survival. Although previous studies were identified the effect of cytokines on the mononuclear cells development however the cytokines effect on mTOR in cord blood mononuclear cells was unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate mTOR expression in cord blood mononuclear and cord blood stem cells (CD34 cells) in culture conditions for lymphoid cell development. Isolation of The mononuclear cells (MNCs) from umbilical cord blood were done with use of Ficollpaque density gradient. We evaluated cultured cord blood mononuclear and CD34 cells in presece of IL2, IL7 and IL15 at distinct time points during 21 days by using flow cytometry. In this study, we presented the role of IL2, IL7 and IL15 on the expression of mTOR in cord blood cells. mTOR expression were increased in peresence of IL2, IL7 and IL15 in day 14 and afterword reduced. However in persence of IL2 and IL15 expression of mTOR significantly reduced. mTOR expression in CD34 cells decreased significantly from day7 to day 21 in culture. cytokines play important role in mTOR expression during hematopoiesis and development of cord blood mononuclear cells.

Purpose: Class III obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 40 kg·m) is associated with high rates of Cesarean deliveries and postpartum hemorrhage, with increased maternal and fetal morbidity. The doses of oxytocin and carbetocin are two to four times higher at Cesarean delivery in patients with class III obesity. We sought to investigate the efficacy of carbetocin 80 µg iv compared with oxytocin 1 IU iv (plus infusion) at elective Cesarean delivery in parturients with class III obesity.

Aims: This study aims to evaluate the impact of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on pregnancy outcomes in women with pregestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM).
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 387 pregnant women with PGDM at Virgen del Rocío University Hospital in Seville, spanning from 2016 to 2022. The patients were categorized into two groups: 212 women who used continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and 175 women who self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG).

Study Design: Cohort retrospective study.
Objective: We evaluated and compared the outcomes of anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (CDF) and anterior cervical corpectomy with iliac crest graft and fusion (CCF) in patients with ≥3 level degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM).
Background: Anterior and posterior approaches are widely employed in DCM when compressive elements predominate in the anterior or posterior spinal cord, respectively.

Preeclampsia (PE) is a significant complication of pregnancy, occurring in approximately 10% of pregnancies. However, the underlying mechanisms of this condition remain unclear. Placentation and tumorigenesis both share many characteristics, but PE is the result of insufficient placentation, in contrast to the overaggression of tumorigenesis.

Spinal cord injury triggers leukocyte mobilization from the peripheral circulation to the injury site, exacerbating spinal cord damage. Simultaneously, bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and splenic leukocytes rapidly mobilize to replenish the depleted peripheral blood leukocyte pool. However, current treatments for spinal cord injuries overlook interventions targeting peripheral immune organs and tissues, highlighting the need to develop novel drugs capable of effectively regulating peripheral immunity and treating spinal cord injuries.
