There is an unmet need in metastatic breast cancer patients to monitor therapy response in real time. In this study, we show how a noninvasive and affordable strategy based on sequencing of plasma samples with longitudinal tracking of tumour fraction paired with a statistical model provides valuable information on treatment response in advance of the ...

Variant 1 exhibited off‐target resistance after first‐line treatment, while variant 3 and later lines favored on‐target mutations.

Evaluation of Forward Fall on the Outstretched Hand Using MADYMO Human Body Model [PDF]
Falls and their related injuries pose a significant risk to human health. One of the most common falls, the forward fall, frequently occurs among adults and the elderly. In this study, we propose using a human body model, developed using the MAthematical DYnamic MOdel (MADYMO) software, in place of human subjects, to investigate forward fall-related ...

Hydrogen sulfide repairs testicular damage induced by heat stress in rats
Heat stress can cause testicular damage and affect fertility. We investigated the potential protective role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) against heat stress‐induced testicular injury and observed that H2S donor NaHS can effectively restore testicular damage in rats by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress. Our results suggest that H2S might be used
