Background Diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, often leads to severe hepatic dysfunction, including increased liver enzyme levels and histopathological changes in the liver. Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat models provide a valuable method for evaluating potential therapeutic agents that target hepatic complications. , a medicinal plant with known anti-diabetic properties, has been used traditionally for its hepatoprotective effects, although scientific evidence is limited.

This study aims to investigate the effect of Zhishi Xiebai Guizhi Decoction on the phenotypic transformation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells(PASMCs) in rats with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH). Healthy SPF SD rats were randomly assigned to five groups: control group, hypoxia model group, hypoxia + low-dose Zhishi Xiebai Guizhi Decoction group(440 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), hypoxia + high-dose Zhishi Xiebai Guizhi Decoction group(880 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), and hypoxia + sildenafil group(30 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), with right rats in each group. Rats in the hypoxia model and hypoxia + drug groups were exposed to a hypobaric oxygen chamber with a simulated altitude of 5 000 m to induce the PH model.

BACKGROUND Dual antiplatelet therapy is the main treatment for cardiovascular diseases (CADs). In this study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of aspirin combined with low-dose rivaroxaban in the secondary prevention of high-risk ischemic cardiovascular diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS In total, 168 patients who were diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction or multiple vessel disease 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention were divided into 2 groups: the aspirin group (aspirin as acetylsalicylic acid: 100 mg once daily) and the aspirin + rivaroxaban group (aspirin: 100 mg once daily, rivaroxaban: 2.

Background: There are no active treatment options for patients with progressive melanoma brain metastases (MBM) failing immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and BRAF/MEK inhibitors (BRAF/MEKi). Regorafenib (REGO), an oral multi-kinase inhibitor (incl. RAF-dimer inhibition), can overcome adaptive resistance to BRAF/MEKi in preclinical models.
