Background: Huangkui capsule (HKC), a Chinese patent medicine, is clinically used for treating diabetic nephropathy. However, the core disease-specific biomarkers and targets of type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN) and the therapeutic mechanism of HKC are not fully elucidated.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of HKC for T2DN.

Introduction: This study evaluates various formulae used to correct the QT interval in patients with wide QRS complexes to calculate corrected QT (QTc) following Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT).
Methods: We included patients with severe heart failure and left bundle branch block, presenting with a QRS duration of at least 120 milliseconds, who underwent successful CRT implantation. Patients were excluded if they had non-lateral left ventricular lead placement, metabolic disorders, atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia, or high-degree atrioventricular block prior to implantation.

The use of foot orthoses to treat different pathologies in pronated feet in adults is widespread among podiatric professionals, although it has not been conclusively demonstrated to modify foot posture in the short or medium term. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether prefabricated foot supports reduce pronated foot posture in adults, as measured by the foot posture index (FPI). A randomised controlled clinical trial was conducted in 109 subjects with pronated feet.

The limitations of cloning and discriminating quantum states are related to the non-orthogonality of the states. Hence, understanding the collective features of quantum states is essential for the future development of quantum communications technology. This paper investigates the non-orthogonality of different coherent-state signal constellations used in quantum communications, namely phase-shift keying (PSK), quadrature-amplitude modulation (QAM), and a newly defined signal named the sunflower-like (SUN) coherent-state signal.

Background: Adequate maternal iodine intake is important for fetal brain development. Based on iodine intakes of non-pregnant females of reproductive age from the Canadian Health Measures Survey (2016 -2017) it can be extrapolated that most pregnant females in Canada will not meet iodine requirements without supplementation.
Objectives: To assess iodine intakes of 500 pregnant, nulliparous females from Québec, Canada and report on use of multivitamin/mineral (MVM) supplements and coverage of iodized salt.
