Global status, recent trends, and knowledge mapping of olive oil research and cardiovascular disease: 50 years of investigations through bibliometric analysis.

In the Mediterranean diet, olive oil serves as the predominant fat source and has been linked to a decreased risk of mortality related to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Still, there is no conclusive evidence correlating olive oil consumption to CVD. The aim of this study is to assess the global research, current research trends, and knowledge mapping related to the correlation between the consumption of olive oil and CVD using bibliometric analysis.

Reactive oxygen species in biological systems: Pathways, associated diseases, and potential inhibitors-A review.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced under normal physiological conditions and may have beneficial and harmful effects on biological systems. ROS are involved in many physiological processes such as differentiation, proliferation, necrosis, autophagy, and apoptosis by acting as signaling molecules or regulators of transcription factors. In this case, maintaining proper cellular ROS levels is known as redox homeostasis.

The roles of HMGB1-produced DNA gaps in DNA protection and aging biomarker reversal.

The endogenous DNA damage triggering an aging progression in the elderly is prevented in the youth, probably by naturally occurring DNA gaps. Decreased DNA gaps are found during chronological aging in yeast. So we named the gaps "Youth-DNA-GAPs.

Further evidence needed to change policy for the safe and effective radical cure of vivax malaria: Insights from the 2019 annual APMEN Vivax Working Group meeting.

New diagnostics and treatment options for the radical cure of malaria are now available. At the 2019 annual meeting of the Vivax Working Group of the Asia Pacific Malaria Elimination Network, participants took part in a roundtable discussion to identify further evidence required to introduce these new tools into policy and practice. Key gaps identified were accuracy and reliability of glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase deficiency tests, health system capacity, and feasibility and cost effectiveness of novel treatment strategies in routine clinical practice.

The Health Risks of Airborne Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs): Upper North Thailand.

Every year, Northern Thailand faces haze pollution during the haze episode. The particulate matter (PM), including fine fraction (PM), a coarse fraction (PM), and 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), was measured in six provinces in upper north Thailand during the haze and non-haze episodes in 2018. Eighty-three percent of the PM measurements (21.

A population of CD4CD38 T cells correlates with disease severity in patients with acute malaria.

Objective: CD4 T cells are critical mediators of immunity to spp. infection, but their characteristics during malarial episodes and immunopathology in naturally infected adults are poorly defined. Flow cytometric analysis of PBMCs from patients with either or malaria revealed a pronounced population of CD4 T cells co-expressing very high levels of CD4 and CD38 we have termed CD4CD38 T cells.

Tocilizumab for treating severe COVID-19 pneumonia refractory to combined hydroxychloroquine, lopinavir plus ritonavir, and favipiravir: A case series.

Three patients diagnosed with severe COVID-19 pneumonia received treatment with hydroxychloroquine combined with lopinavir, ritonavir, and favipiravir. Two patients diagnosed early, received tocilizumab when the pneumonia became severe and survived. The thrid patient was diagnosed late and received tocilizumab when the disease progressed to acute respiratory distress syndrome, and died.

Thirty-Day Readmission and Cost Analysis in Patients With Cirrhosis: A Nationwide Population-Based Data.

Accurate population-based data are needed on the rate, economic impact, and the longterm outcomes of readmission among patients with cirrhosis. To examine the rates, costs, and 1-year outcomes of patients readmitted within 30 days following their index hospitalization for complications of cirrhosis, we conducted a nationwide, population-based cohort study involving all patients with cirrhosis in Thailand from 2009 through 2013, using data from the National Health Security Office databases, which included those from nationwide hospitalizations. Readmission was captured from hospitals at all health care levels across the country within the Universal Coverage Scheme.

Hurdles in the evolutionary epidemiology of : Pseudogenes, incongruence between taxonomy and DNA sequence variants, and cryptic lineages.

, the rat lungworm, is a zoonotic pathogen that is one of the leading causes of eosinophilic meningitis worldwide. This parasite is regarded as an emerging pathogen with a global range expansion out of southeastern Asia post-WWII. To date, molecular systematic/phylogeographic studies on have mainly used two mitochondrial (mtDNA) markers, (1) and (), where the focus has largely been descriptive in terms of reporting local patterns of haplotype variants.

Coexistence of true talon cusp and double dens invaginatus in a single tooth: a rare case report and review of the literature.

Co-occurrence of a talon cusp and double dens invaginatus is an extremely rare developmental dental anomaly. This case report represents a talon cusp with two dens invaginatus on a maxillary right lateral incisor. Early identification is needed for prevention of potential problems on the affected or opposing tooth.

Scrub typhus infection in pregnancy: the dilemma of diagnosis and treatment in a resource-limited setting.

To save the life of both mother and fetus, the risks and benefits of the few antibiotics considered effective in the treatment of severe scrub typhus require consideration. In this case, chloramphenicol treatment averted maternal but not fetal mortality. Evidence-based guidelines appropriate for resource-limited endemic areas are required.
