Background: Arsenic emerges as most potent hazardous element ranked as number one in ATSDR (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry) list, can easily accumulate in fish, transported to humans via consumption and affect humans and aquatic organisms. Considering above, current experiment designed to evaluate cyto-genotoxicity and histological alterations induced by arsenic in Labeo rohita used as an animal model.
Methods: By applying complete randomized design sampling acclimatized individuals of Labeo rohita (10 batches of 10 each with triplicates) were exposed to nine definitive doses (12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 and 28 mgL) of arsenic in glass aquaria to determine 96-h lethal concentration (LC) of arsenic.

Background: Recent studies analyzed the impact of Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) on the prognosis of Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) patients. No data on specific morphological clinical differences of MCPyV+ or MCPyV- are currently available neither on the possible prognostic implication of different clinical presentation of MCC.
Objectives: 1) to describe clinicopathological characteristics of MCC patients and the prevalence of MCPyV infection in an Italian cohort of patients; 2) to define possible differences in clinicopathological and prognostic features among MCPyV+ and MCPyV- MCCs.

In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), repeated cycles of infection and inflammation eventually lead to fatal lung damage. Although diminished mucus clearance can be restored by highly effective CFTR modulator therapy, inflammation and infection often persist. To elucidate the role of the innate immune system in CF etiology, we investigated a CF pig model and compared these results with those for preschool children with CF.

Background: Aging-related comorbidities are more common in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) compared to people without HIV. The gut microbiome may play a role in healthy aging; however, this relationship remains unexplored in the context of HIV.
Methods: 16S rRNA gene sequencing was conducted on stool from 1409 women (69% with HIV; 2304 samples) and 990 men (54% with HIV; 1008 samples) in the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study.

Background And Aim: Sodium-glucose cotransporter two inhibitors can reduce cardiovascular events by modulating lipid profiles in patients with heart failure, irrespective of diabetes status. In this study, we aimed to assess the effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors on the lipid profiles of patients with heart failure via a meta-analysis.
Methods: The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases were searched up to 2023 to retrieve relevant article titles, abstracts, and full texts.
