Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Risk factors associated with glaucoma status: a case study of Abesim Health Center (2019-2021)

Russian Open Medical Journal
Background — Despite glaucoma being a global public health concern, there is currently no clear and accepted explanation for the causes of glaucoma. The National Blindness Survey conducted in Ghana shows that over 19% of blindness in Ghana was accounted ...

Declining Trend of Water Inflow in the Dams of Rajasthan State

International Journal of Technology, 2014
Rajasthan is a semi arid state with the highest of the geographical area (343,000.00 square km) of the Indian subcontinent. Annual rainfall variation is very high over the state ranging from 100 mm to 1000 mm from west to south/east.

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Tutorial on Bonferroni Correction as a Post Hoc Analysis of a Significant Chi-Squared Test: A Methodological Guide in Food Science [PDF]

Journal of Food Quality and Hazards Control
Background: In medical research, analyzing the relationship between two categorical variables is common. While chi-square tests (e.g., Pearson's, McNemar's, and Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel) can determine if a significant association exists, they do not ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Evaluation of effects, inheritance patterns and gene number prediction controlling plant height and root length of colchicine treated fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.)

Maǧallaẗ al-baṣraẗ al-ʻulūm al-zirāʻiyyaẗ
Fennel seeds were treated with varying colchicine concentrations (0, 0.0125, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 % w/v) for 24 and 48 hours and then planted in a garden using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) method.

Boolean networks using the chi-square test for inferring large-scale gene regulatory networks

BMC Bioinformatics, 2007
Background Boolean network (BN) modeling is a commonly used method for constructing gene regulatory networks from time series microarray data. However, its major drawback is that its computation time is very high or often impractical to construct large ...
