From 2015 to 2023, we conducted a comprehensive study in the 11,893-hectare hunting area managed by the Marcal-Bitvaközi Hunting Company, characterised by its substantial wild boar population. The research was carried out across various settings...
3-indoxyl sulfate (3-IS) results from a hepatic transformation of indole, a tryptophan degradation product produced by commensal gut bacteria. The metabolite has shown promise as a biomarker of dysbiosis and clinical outcomes following hematopoietic...
Pressure ulcers are a frequent issue involving localized damage to the skin and underlying tissues, commonly arising from prolonged hospitalization and immobilization. This paper introduces a mathematical model designed to elucidate the mechanics beh...
Hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome is caused by the inheritance of monoallelic germline BRCA1/2 gene mutations. If BRCA1/2 mutation carriers are identified before the disease develops, effective actions against HBOC can be taken, includ...
Perinatal cohort studies with a prospective longitudinal design are critical for determining the effects of early-life exposures on offspring’s health outcomes. The Sri Lanka Mother and Newborn Growth cohort study aims to investigate the impact...
Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii are opportunistic pathogens, and both are involved in different oral infections. This work aimed to analyze the phytochemical composition of Myrciaria cauliflora hydroethanolic extract and to evaluate...
This study focuses on the development and optimization of a water removal device for biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) from plant emissions. BVOCs play a crucial role in various ecological processes and have potential therapeutic effects on...
Unresectable, metastatic, advanced urothelial carcinoma (aUC) is an aggressive disease and is treated with platinum-containing first-line chemotherapy, followed by immune checkpoint inhibitors and antibody–drug conjugates. Response to first-lin...
With the advent of “next-generation” sequencing and the continuous reduction in sequencing costs, an increasing amount of genomic data has emerged, such as whole-genome, whole-exome, and targeted sequencing data. These applications are po...
The complex systematics of the genus Sedum, the difficulties of its classification and the ambiguity of the concrete identification of the taxa brought about the need to implement a measurement system adaptable to field conditions, so as to facilitat...
During the production and laying phases of hot-mixing asphalt (HMA), various volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and noxious gases such as H2S are released into the atmosphere. These emissions are a serious environmental problem, a risk to human health...
(1) Background: A significant proportion of cancer survivors report experiencing a cognitive ‘fog’ that affects their ability to think coherently and quickly, and reason with clarity. This has been referred to as cancer-related cognitive...
This study investigated the suitability of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis for routine multi-elemental composition analysis, checking its analytical capabilities by measuring a wide array of certified reference materials of soil and plant origin. A...
The word “secretome” was first used to describe the proteins that cells secrete under different circumstances; however, recent studies have proven the existence of other molecules such as RNA and chemical compounds in the secretome. The s...
The first step in anthropological study is the positive identification of human remains, which can be a challenging undertaking when bones are broken. When bone pieces from different species are mixed together, it can be crucial to distinguish betwee...
Background: Essential oils have gained in significance due to their various biological activities, and there is a growing demand for them in many industries. The present article focuses on the technical steps for an in vitro evaluation of the antibac...
