The histological and biochemical analysis of the effects of radiofrequency radiation on testis tissue of rats and the protective effect of melatonin.

Background/aim: Primarily due to wireless communication devices, especially mobile phones, there has been a steady rise in the intensity of nonionizing radiofrequency radiation (RFR). In recent years, increased human health problems raised concerns about whether there is a positive relationship between intense exposure to RFR and public health. The present study aims to investigate the effects of GSM-like RFR exposure on the male reproductive system and the impact of melatonin treatment (synergistic, antagonist, or additive).

Apically extruded debris evaluation with the use of ProTaper Ultimate and TruNatomy files systems with and without glider preparation in primary tooth.

Information regarding the influence of resorption and glide paths on debris extrusion in primary teeth is lacking. Therefore, we evaluated debris extrusion with and without resorption and with and without the use of a path file in primary molar teeth prepared with ProTaper Ultimate (PTU) Prime and TruNatomy (TRN) Prime rotary file systems. Forty resorbed and forty non-resorbed primary molar teeth were collected.

Lobish: Symbolic Language for Interpreting Electroencephalogram Signals in Language Detection Using Channel-Based Transformation and Pattern.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals contain information about the brain's state as they reflect the brain's functioning. However, the manual interpretation of EEG signals is tedious and time-consuming. Therefore, automatic EEG translation models need to be proposed using machine learning methods.

YOLOv8-Based System for Nail Capillary Detection on a Single-Board Computer.

Nail capillaroscopic examination is an inexpensive and easily applicable method to identify capillary morphological changes in patients with conditions such as systemic sclerosis and Raynaud's. The detection of changes in capillaries makes an important contribution to diagnosing these diseases. Capillary morphology is important in the symptoms of these diseases, and capillary diameter, visibility, distribution, length, microbleeds, blood flow, and density are important indicators in capillaroscopic evaluation.

Establishing a link between the chemical composition and biological activities of Mill. from the Turkish flora utilizing , and network pharmacological methodologies.

Objectives: Five solvent extracts (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, ethanol, ethanol/water (70%), and water) of Mill. from Turkey were evaluated for chemical and biological properties.

Methods: Antioxidant activities, inhibitory properties against key enzymes involved in the etiology of chronic diseases were tested, as well as cytotoxic effects on different cell lines.

The Effects of Self-Acupressure on Pain and Sleep Quality in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease: A Randomised Controlled Trial.

Purpose: The most important cause of death among cardiovascular diseases is Coronary artery disease (CAD). Pain and insomnia symptoms are the most common symptoms in CAD patients. Acupressure is used in patients with CAD as one of the energy-based complementary and alternative methods.

Multifeature Fusion Method with Metaheuristic Optimization for Automated Voice Pathology Detection.

Voice pathologies occur due to various factors, such as malfunction of the vocal cords. Computerized acoustic examination-based vocal pathology detection is crucial for early diagnosis, efficient follow-up, and improving problematic speech. Different acoustic measurements provide it.

45S5 Bioactive Glass-Ointment Positively Effects on Wound Healing in Rats by Regulating TNFα, Il-10, VEGF, and TGFβ.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effects of 45S5 bioactive glass-ointment (BG) on cutaneous wound healing in rats at the molecular, biochemical, and histopathological levels.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups (n = 8): Control, Sham, BG, and DEX (Dexpanthenol). While no wound treatment was applied to the CONTROL, a wound model was created in the Sham, and no treatment was applied.

Uncovering the drivers of CO emissions in the United States: The hidden spillover effects.

This study explores the applicability of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis in the United States (US) from 2006 to 2020, employing the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) to analyze the cross-border effects of pollution among states. The results indicate that although economic growth initially decreases environmental degradation, it subsequently contributes to more significant environmental degradation, challenging the EKC hypothesis's validity at the US state level. Factors such as higher energy prices and reliance on fossil fuels are also identified as significant drivers of environmental deterioration, with varying impacts observed across states.

Methods: A randomized controlled design was used. The study was conducted with a total of 146 women, including 41 acupressure, 31 laughter yoga, 37 mindfulness-based stress reduction, and 37 control group women.

Biomechanical Evaluation of the Osseointegration Levels of Implants Placed Simultaneously With Tibia, Femur, and Jaw Allogeneic Bone Grafts.

In implant-supported prosthetic treatments, the jaw bones may not always have enough bone to accommodate implants.
