The similarity between microbiota of gut and pancreatic necrotic drainage fluid in infected pancreatic necrosis and its potential diagnostic value: a prospective observational cohort study [PDF]
Background Infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) is a major determinant of mortality in acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). Although gut bacterial translocation has been proposed as a key mechanism, direct evidence based on paired profiling of gut and ...

Synergistic Interaction Between HPV-16 E7 Oncoprotein and Severe Vitamin A Deficiency in Regulating Adaptive Immunity in a Preclinical Cervical Cancer Model. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Persistent infection with High‐Risk Human Papillomavirus (HR‐HPV), particularly HPV‐16, is the main driver of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer (CC). However, HR‐HPV infection alone is insufficient for malignant progression and nutritional cofactors such as Vitamin A deficiency, may influence cervical neoplasia ...

The lipid ratio castelli’s risk index II is a novel biomarker for intraplaque neovascularization in patients with carotid stenosis [PDF]
Background Dyslipidemia is a well-established cause of atherosclerosis. Intraplaque neovascularization (IPN), a hallmark of vulnerable stroke-prone plaques, is a critical feature of dyslipidemia progression.

Development of leftover rice/gelatin interpenetrating polymer network films for food packaging
Waste biomass can be used as a raw material for food packaging. Different concentrations of gelatin (GEL) were introduced into the leftover rice (LR) system to form an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) for improving the properties of the films.

Communication system between Russian energy companies and the Indigenous peoples of the North
The regions of activity of energy companies are also the traditional areas of residence of the Indigenous peoples of the North (IPN). Commercial activities in these territories violate the environment and adversely impact the lives of the IPN. This study
