Phonological and surface dyslexia in individuals with brain tumors: Performance pre‐, intra‐, immediately post‐surgery and at follow‐up

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 41, Issue 17, Page 5015-5031, December 1, 2020., 2020
We explored how reading abilities in individuals with neurosurgical lesions evolve during and after surgery for a brain tumor, and we studied the reading performance in a sample of 33 individuals in a 4‐month follow‐up after surgery. Abstract We address existing controversies regarding neuroanatomical substrates of reading‐aloud processes according to ...

Artichoke Polyphenols Sensitize Human Breast Cancer Cells to Chemotherapeutic Drugs via a ROS‐Mediated Downregulation of Flap Endonuclease 1

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Combined treatment of several natural polyphenols and chemotherapeutic agents is more effective comparing to the drug alone in inhibiting cancer cell growth. Polyphenolic artichoke extracts (AEs) have been shown to have anticancer properties by triggering apoptosis or reactive oxygen species‐ (ROS‐) mediated senescence when used at high or low doses ...
