Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,

Abstract Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 transcription factors regulate essential transcriptional programs in various cell types. The activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2 factors is modulated through interactions with cofactors, chromatin remodelers, and other regulatory proteins, which are dependent on cell context and physiological state.

ABSTRACT Introduction Papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMC) are defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as tumours measuring ≤ 10 mm. Incidental PTMCs, or lesions discovered postoperatively on histological examination, are less extensively studied compared with lesions diagnosed preoperatively through cytology, particularly in terms of ...
