Background: The role of a prothrombotic state in atrial fibrillation (AF) progression to permanent arrythmia (PerAF) is unclear. Formation of denser and poorly lysable fibrin clots has been observed in AF patients also with sinus rhythm in association with higher stroke risk. We investigated whether altered fibrin clot properties and other prothrombotic state markers may contribute to AF transition to PerAF.

Background: Endometriosis, a prevalent chronic gynecological condition, is frequently associated with infertility and pelvic pain. Despite numerous studies indicating a correlation between epigenetic regulation and endometriosis, its precise genetic etiology remains elusive. Methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14), a crucial component of the N6-methyladenosine (mA) RNA methyltransferase complex and an RNA binding scaffold, is known to play a pivotal role in various human diseases.

Non-halophytic plants are highly susceptible to salt stress, but numerous studies have shown that halo-tolerant microorganisms can alleviate this stress by producing phytohormones and enhancing nutrient availability. This study aimed to identify and evaluate native microbial communities from salt-affected regions to boost black gram () resilience against salinity, while improving plant growth, nitrogen uptake, and nodulation in saline environments. Six soil samples were collected from a salt-affected region in eastern Uttar Pradesh, revealing high electrical conductivity (EC) and pH, along with low nutrient availability.

Biodegradable polymeric coatings are being explored as a preventive strategy for orthopaedic device-related infection. In this study, titanium surfaces (Ti) were coated with poly-D,L-lactide (PDLLA, (P)), polyethylene-glycol poly-D,L-lactide PEGylated-PDLLA, (PP20)), or multi-layered PEGylated-PDLLA (M), with or without 1 % silver sulfadiazine. The aim was to evaluate their cytocompatibility, resistance to biofilm formation, and their potential to enhance the susceptibility of any biofilm formed to antibiotics.
