Article Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the practicality of treating patients with various stages of breast cancer by means of regional (intra-arterial) chemotherapy. Three groups of patients received a median of four (range 2-4) cycles of combination chemotherapy: group I operable primary (n = 10); group II, locally advanced disease (n = 20); group III, recurrent locoregional disease (n = 22). The response rates (complete response, partial response and mixed response) in these groups of patients were 100% in groups I and II and 86% in group III. Morbidity included drug streaming and dysaesthesia in the hand. Patients in groups I and II had their tumours downstaged, allowing surgery to be performed. Local control was also achieved in group III when other treatment modalities had failed.

The ability of end-tidal carbon dioxide value to predict the risk of major cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Acta Clin Belg

Erzurum Regional Training and Research Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine, Erzurum, Turkey.
Objectives: In this study, the capacity of End-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) levels to predict the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome and the relationship between risk scoring systems (TIMI, GRACE, HEART) and EtCO2 values were examined.
Methods: EtCO2 values of the patients in the study were measured with a capnography device. Each patient's MACE status was recorded.
Mitigation of Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress in Rotenone-Induced Parkinson Mouse Model through Liposomal Coenzyme-Q10 Intervention: A Comprehensive In-vivo Study.

Parkinson's disease (PD) stands as the sec most prevalent incapacitating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by deterioration of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) has garnered attention as a potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory agent and enhancer of mitochondrial complex-I activity. This study aimed to examine and compare the effectiveness of liposomal and non-encapsulated CoQ10 in rotenone induced-PD mouse model over a 21-day treatment duration.

The present study investigates the potential contribution of Photobiomodulation (PBM) to the regeneration of the bone following the extraction of the first mandibular molar in rats. The study evaluates the efficacy of PBM, using both Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and Light-Emitting Diode Therapy (LEDT), as promotors of osteoblastic activity and the formation of new bone. Study design, setting, and sample: 45 male Wistar rats were divided randomly into three groups of 15 individuals - (i) control group (left lower molar removed only), (ii) the LLL group (molar removed, followed by LLLT), and (iii) the LED group (molar removed, followed by LEDT).

Purpose: This study evaluated the differences in amyloid-β (Aβ), tau deposition, and longitudinal tau deposition between subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and objective subtle cognitive difficulties (Obj-SCD).
Methods: Participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) cohort (n = 234) and the Huashan cohort (n = 267) included individuals with Obj-SCD, SCD, subjective memory concern (SMC), and healthy controls (HC). General linear models (GLM) were used to compare baseline and longitudinal differences in Aβ and tau among the groups, and to examine the associations between these biomarkers.

Objective: To elucidate the relationship between impaired sleep duration and trauma/posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) net of sociodemographic, behavioral, and comorbid diagnostic factors.
Method: We investigated this relationship using the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions-III data set, analyzing a nationally representative sample of 36,309 adults. Our study identified three groups: those without trauma/PTSD, those with trauma but no PTSD, and those with PTSD.
