Dietary Supplementation of L-Arginine and N-Carbamylglutamate Attenuated the Hepatic Inflammatory Response and Apoptosis in Suckling Lambs with Intrauterine Growth Retardation
L-arginine (Arg) is a semiessential amino acid with several physiological functions. N-Carbamylglutamate (NCG) can promote the synthesis of endogenous Arg in mammals. However, the roles of Arg or NCG on hepatic inflammation and apoptosis in suckling lambs suffering from intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) are still unclear. The current work is aimed at examining the effects of dietary Arg and NCG on inflammatory and hepatocyte apoptosis in IUGR suckling lambs. On day 7 after birth, 48 newborn...

Mycobiome in the Gut: A Multiperspective Review
Human gut is home to a diverse and complex microbial ecosystem encompassing bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and other microorganisms that have an undisputable role in maintaining good health for the host. Studies on the interplay between microbiota in the gut and various human diseases remain the key focus among many researchers. Nevertheless, advances in sequencing technologies and computational biology have helped us to identify a diversity of fungal community that reside in the gut known...

Dexmedetomidine Protects against Ischemia and Reperfusion-Induced Kidney Injury in Rats
Acute kidney injury (AKI), a clinical syndrome, is a sudden onset of kidney failure that severely affects the kidney tubules. One potential treatment is dexmedetomidine (DEX), a highly selective α2-adrenoreceptor agonist that is used as an anesthetic adjuvant. It also has anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and sympatholytic qualities. The aim of this study was to establish whether DEX also offers protection against ischemia and reperfusion- (I/R-) induced AKI in rats. An intraperitoneal injection...

Flavor education and training in olfactory dysfunction: a pilot study
Abstract Purpose Olfactory training is recommended in olfactory dysfunction (OD) showing promising results. OD patients frequently ask for training modifications in the hope of a better outcome. Also, a lack of knowledge of the flavor system is evident. This investigation sought to implement flavor education (FE) and encourage patients to experience flavors in terms of a flavor training (FT). ...

Day-case thyroid lobectomy parameters at a tertiary referral head and neck centre: a sensitivity and cost analysis
Abstract Purpose Day-case thyroid surgery has been endorsed by the American Thyroid Association and the British Association of Day Surgery. Despite the many benefits of day surgery, day-case thyroid surgery is not widely practiced. We describe the use of sensitivity analysis modelling and cost analysis in determining and refining the patient cohort that safely meet the threshold for a new day-case thyroid lobectomy service at a tertiary...

Prognostic significance of tumor poliovirus receptor and CTLA4 expression in patients with surgically resected non-small-cell lung cancer
Abstract Introduction Poliovirus receptor (PVR) is a tumor promoter and a regulatory checkpoint that enhances immunosuppression. We investigated PVR expression by applying immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. A positive association existed between PVR expression and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA4) expression in patients with surgically resected non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PVR expression is a prognosis predictor...

Primary anatomical site as a prognostic factor for pleomorphic liposarcoma
Abstract Background Pleomorphic liposarcomas (PLS) is an aggressive, high-grade subtype of soft tissue sarcoma representing < 15% of liposarcomas. It most commonly arises in the retroperitoneum and proximal upper extremities. Current prognostic factors are centered around staging, which accounts for the grade, size, and location of the tumor in relation to the superficial fascia. ...

Gender-specific differences in care-seeking behaviour among lung cancer patients: a systematic review
Abstract Background In the literature, men are often described as unwilling to use healthcare services, whereas women as frequent users. We conducted a systematic literature review to examine the gender differences in healthcare utilisation of lung cancer patients. Our aim was to synthesise evidence to assess whether men and women utilise cancer diagnosis and treatments differently. ...

Dasatinib-induced chylothorax: report of a case and review of the literature
Summary Dasatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor for the treatment of BCR-ABL-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Although fluid retention is a common adverse event associated with dasatinib, chylothorax is exceptionally rare. The pathological mechanism, clinical manifestation and management of dasatinib-induced chylothorax are completely unclear. A 71-year-old man treated with dasatinib for CML was...

A randomized, phase 2 study of deoxyuridine triphosphatase inhibitor, TAS-114, in combination with S-1 versus S-1 alone in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer
Summary Introduction TAS-114 is a potent inhibitor of deoxyuridine triphosphatase, which is a gatekeeper protein preventing uracil and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) misincorporation into DNA. TAS-114 has been suggested to enhance the antitumor activity of 5-FU. This randomized, phase 2 study investigated TAS-114 plus S-1 (TAS-114/S-1) vs. S-1 in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods Patients with advanced NSCLC, previously treated with ≥ 2 regimens, were randomized 1:1...
