Objectives: The diet and lifestyle affect our life. Inadequate nutrition can cause various diseases including cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to show the correlations between the fruit and vegetable diet and high signal resolution pulse wave parameters.
Design: This was an observational study.
Settings: The study was done during two-weeks rehabilitation treatment.
Participants: In this study 154 people using the fruit and vegetable diet have been examined.
Measurements: The participants were monitored using a new diagnostic method high signal resolution pulseoximetry (HSR-PW). They were examined two times: before starting the diet and after two weeks of using it. The high signal resolution pulse wave and its characteristic parameters have been compared.
Results: Analyzing the research results at the beginning and after two weeks of using this diet, the improvement of selected parameters has been noticed. With the improvement in the pulse wave was observed weight loss, improved blood counts (e.g. cholesterol, triglycerides) as well as decreased blood pressure particularly in people with treated hypertension.
Conclusions: The study shows that applied fruit and vegetable diet influenced favorably the people using it and contributed to the improvement of the HSR-PW parameters which are the source of information about the state of the cardiovascular system.

Metabolic reprogramming shapes tumor microenvironment (TME) and may lead to immunotherapy resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Elucidating the impact of pancreatic cancer cell metabolism in the TME is essential to therapeutic interventions. "Immune cold" PDAC is characterized by elevated lactate levels resulting from tumor cell metabolism, abundance of pro-tumor macrophages, and reduced cytotoxic T cell in the TME.

Background: Arteriovenous (AV) fistulas are the preferred access for dialysis but have a high incidence of failure. This study aims to understand the crosstalk between skeletal muscle catabolism and AV fistula maturation failure.
Methods: Skeletal muscle metabolism and AV fistula maturation were evaluated in mice with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

In this study, spatial and single-cell transcriptome techniques were used to investigate the role of beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1) in promoting peritoneal metastasis in ovarian cancer epithelial cells. We collected single-cell transcriptomic (GSE130000) and spatial transcriptomic datasets (GSE211956) from the Gene Expression Omnibus and RNA-sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. The Robust Cell Type Decomposition (RCTD) approach was implemented to integrate spatial and single-cell transcriptomic data.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a type of hemorrhagic stroke with high morbidity, mortality and disability, and early brain injury (EBI) after SAH is crucial for prognosis. Recently, stem cell therapy has garnered significant attention in the treatment of neurological diseases. Compared to other stem cells, dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) possess several advantages, including abundant sources, absence of ethical concerns, non-invasive procurement, non-tumorigenic history and neuroprotective potential.
