A novel quantitative indicator of the left ventricular contraction based on volume changes of the left ventricular myocardial segments [PDF]
Ejection fraction (EF) is commonly measured by echocardiography, by dividing the volume ejected by the heart (stroke volume) by the volume of the filled heart (end-diastolic volume). Utilizing volume changes of left myocardial segments per a cardiac cycle, physical laws and mathematical equations specific echocardiographic data, this paper serves to ...

A micromethod for the determination of glycocyamine in biological fluids and tissue extracts [PDF]
In the two following communications (1, 2) evidence is presented that glycocyamine is a normal precursor of creatine in the animal body. These studies required a satisfactory micromethod for the determination of glycocyamine.

Peripheral blood proteome biomarkers distinguish immunosuppressive features of cancer progression
Immune status significantly influences cancer progression. This study used plasma proteomics to analyze benign 67NR and malignant 4T1 breast tumor models at early and late tumor stages. Immune‐related proteins–osteopontin (Spp1), lactotransferrin (Ltf), calreticulin (Calr) and peroxiredoxin 2 (Prdx2)–were associated with systemic myeloid‐derived ...

Different behaviour of the N-terminal and C-terminal fragment of proatrial natriuretic factor in plasma of healthy subjects as well as of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]
N-terminal (atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) 1-98) and C-terminal (ANF 99-126) fragments of proatrial natriuretic factor (NTA and CTA, respectively) were determined in plasma of healthy subjects adopting different postures and in patients with cirrhosis ...

Classification of acute myeloid leukemia based on multi‐omics and prognosis prediction value
The Unsupervised AML Multi‐Omics Classification System (UAMOCS) integrates genomic, methylation, and transcriptomic data to categorize AML patients into three subtypes (UAMOCS1‐3). This classification reveals clinical relevance, highlighting immune and chromosomal characteristics, prognosis, and therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Statistical Analysis of Behavioral Intention Towards Private Umbilical Cord Blood Banking [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework to identify the key dimensions affecting behavioral intention to bank umbilical cord blood in Iran. We examine the impact of awareness, reference group, usability, disease history, and price on perceived risk and behavioral intention to use umbilical cord blood banking service.
