Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether vitamin K (menatetrenone) suppresses bone mineral density (BMD) loss in the irradiated region after radiotherapy (RT) in uterine cancer patients.
Materials And Methods: Our study included 34 patients who underwent whole pelvic irradiation for uterine cancer between 2001 and 2010. The patients were categorized in two groups: (1) Vitamin K (45 mg/day) administration group (group A) with 18 cases and (2) non-administered group (group B) with 16 cases.

The purpose of this study was to compare the impact of modified heart preservation techniques with conventional heart preservation techniques on heart transplant recipients. The goal was to determine if these modified preservation techniques could extend the preservation of the donor heart without increasing the risk of recipient mortality. A retrospective analysis was carried out on 763 cases of orthotopic heart transplantation performed at Wuhan Union Hospital and Nanjing First Hospital, from September 2008 to October 2022.

The context of rapid global environmental change underscores the pressing necessity to investigate the environmental factors and high-risk areas that contribute to the occurrence of brucellosis. In this study, a maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model was employed to analyze the factors influencing brucellosis in the Aksu Prefecture from 2014 to 2023. A distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was employed to investigate the lagged effect of meteorological factors on the occurrence of brucellosis.
