Acne vulgaris is the 8th most commonly prevailing skin disorder worldwide. Its pervasiveness has been predominant in juveniles, especially males, during adolescence and in females during adulthood. The lifestyle and nutrition adopted have been significantly reported to impact the occurrence and frequency of acne.

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a life-threatening arrhythmia often leading to sudden cardiac death, particularly in critically ill patients. Refractory VT, characterized by recurrent episodes requiring intervention, poses unique challenges for management, necessitating advanced diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. This systematic review evaluates the impact of imaging and pharmacological treatments in managing refractory VT in critically ill patients.

Purpose This study evaluated the efficacy of oral melatonin therapy for visual acuity and retinal and choroidal structures in patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Methods Fourteen patients with CSCR were included; eight received oral melatonin (3 mg nightly), and six formed the control group. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness (CMT), central choroidal thickness (CCT), and choroidal vascularity index (CVI) were assessed at baseline and after one month.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of using melatonin and vitamin C as adjuncts to the non-surgical treatment of chronic periodontitis.
Materials And Methods: This triple-blind randomized clinical trial involved 100 participants with chronic periodontitis. Subjects were randomly assigned to three groups: (1) non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) alone (n = 33); (2) NSPT with melatonin (n = 33); and (3) NSPT with melatonin and vitamin C (n = 34).

Cancer cells often upregulate ribosome biogenesis to meet increased protein synthesis demands for rapid proliferation; therefore, targeting ribosome biogenesis has emerged as a promising cancer therapeutic strategy. Herein, we introduce two Pt complexes, ataluren monosubstituted platinum(IV) (SPA, formula: c,c,t,-[Pt(NH)Cl(OH)(CHFNO)], where CHFNO = ataluren) and ataluren bisubstituted platinum(IV) complex (DPA, formula: c,c,t,-[Pt(NH)Cl(CHFNO)], where CHFNO = ataluren), which effectively suppress ribosome biogenesis by inhibiting 47s pre-RNA expression. Furthermore, SPA and DPA induce nucleolar stress by dispersing nucleolar protein NPM1, ultimately inhibiting protein generation in tumor cells.
