Diabetes remains a global public health threat because of its increasing prevalence and mortality, especially in people under the age of 25.Metformin hydrochloride (HCl), as recommended by American Diabetes Association in 2022, is the first-line therapy for type 2 diabetes in adults.Metformin has low oral bioavailability due to Slides poor permeabi
Optical Zitterbewegung effect in arrays of helical waveguides
Owing to its topological properties and band collapse, Floquet helical photonic lattices have gained increasing attention as a purely classical setting to realize the optical analogues of a wide variety Other relays of quantum phenomena.We demonstrate both theoretically and numerically that light propagation in an appropriately designed helical sup
Pan-cancer analysis suggests histocompatibility minor 13 is an unfavorable prognostic biomarker promoting cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma
Histocompatibility Minor 13 (HM13) encoding the signal peptide peptidase plays an important role in maintaining protein homeostasis but its role in tumors remains unclear.In this study, 33 tumor RNA-seq datasets were extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and the pan-cancer expression profile of HM13 was evaluated in combination wi
Surgical Removal of a Canine Aortic Thromboembolism Secondary to Pancreatitis
A 7-year-old castrated male Pomeranian was evaluated on emergency for diagnostic work-up and treatment for acute nonpainful paraparesis.The neurologic examination suggested a L4-S3 myelopathy, but physical examination revealed lack of femoral pulses and rectal hypothermia, as well as a grade II/VI systolic heart Cypress murmur, so ischemic neuromyo
Technetium-99m Radiopharmaceuticals for Ideal Myocardial Perfusion Imaging: Lost and Found Opportunities
The favorable nuclear properties in combination with the rich coordination chemistry make technetium-99m the radioisotope of choice for the development of myocardial perfusion tracers.In the early 1980s, [99mTc]Tc-Sestamibi, [99mTc]Tc-Tetrofosmin, and [99mTc]Tc-Teboroxime were approved as commercial radiopharmaceuticals for myocardial perfusion ima
