Distribution of human papillomaviruses and bacterial vaginosis in HIV positive women with abnormal cytology in Mombasa, Kenya [PDF]

, 2016
Background: HPV is the major etiological factor in the causal pathway for cervical cancer, which is the leading cancer among women in sub-Saharan Africa. HIV is associated with a higher prevalence and a broader range of high-risk HPV genotypes.

To Evaluate Whether Pretreatment CA19‐9 and DUPAN‐2 Levels Can Serve as Predictive Markers to Guide the Choice Between NAT and Upfront Surgery in Pancreatic Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
NAT‐GS was significantly more effective only in patients with one tumor marker above the reference range, comparing those who achieved 12‐month MRFS with those who did not. ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, with early recurrence severely affecting prognosis even after curative resection.

Clinical comparison of liquid-based and conventional cytology of oral brush biopsies: a randomized controlled trial

Head & Face Medicine, 2018
Background Exfoliative cytology performed on oral brush samples can help dentists to decide, whether a given oral lesion is (pre-) malignant. The use of non-invasive brush biopsies as an auxiliary tool in the diagnosis of oral mucosal lesions has gained ...

Optimization and verification of high‐fat diet formulation for establishing a rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We identified 45% HFD as the optimal formulation to establish a juvenile rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty. It elicits robust phenotypic (early vaginal opening, obesity), histological (advanced ovarian development), and endocrine (elevated HPG axis hormones) alterations, with leptin‐mediated GnRH secretion as a core mechanistic driver ...

Relationship between Protein Oxidation Biomarkers and Uterine Health in Dairy Cows during the Postpartum Period [PDF]

, 2019
High neutrophil (PMN, Polymorphonuclear neutrophil) counts in the endometrium of cows affected by endometritis, suggests the involvement of oxidative stress (OS) among the causes of impaired fertility. Protein oxidation, in particular, advanced oxidation

A preclinical mouse model mimicking the ovarian cancer‐induced estrogen deficiency‐depression axis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A preclinical mouse model of ovarian cancer–related depression was developed by combining intraperitoneal tumor cell injection, ovariectomy, and chronic restraint stress. The model replicates key clinical features including estrogen deficiency, depressive‐like behaviors, and tumor progression, and provides a reliable tool for studying the endocrine ...

A fully integrated paperfluidic molecular diagnostic chip for the extraction, amplification, and detection of nucleic acids from clinical samples [PDF]

, 2016
Paper diagnostics have successfully been employed to detect the presence of antigens or small molecules in clinical samples through immunoassays; however, the detection of many disease targets relies on the much higher sensitivity and specificity ...
