Its incidence is rising across Asia, with ischemic stroke accounting for approximately 80% of total stroke cases in Thailand. Stroke often leads to long-term disabilities, including impairments in speech, communication, and cognitive function. The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors associated with newly diagnosed ischemic stroke. A matched case-control study was conducted, including 154 newly diagnosed ischemic stroke cases and 183 non-stroke controls, all with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Data were collected between February and September 2022 (post-COVID-19 period) using a structured questionnaire covering socio-demographics, lifestyle factors, perceived social support, and self-care management (SCM). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aOR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The majority of participants were female (60.8%), Buddhist (92.9%), and agriculturists (66.5%), with a mean age of 58.9 (±9.9) years. Factors associated with ischemic stroke included male (aOR: 3.53; 95%CI: 1.73-7.21), Buddhism (aOR: 3.53, 95%CI: 1.11-11.25), sedentary occupation (aOR: 5.78; 95%CI: 2.61-12.81), and T2DM duration >10 years (aOR: 6.19, 95%CI: 3.55-10.80).

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of MAD on the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-ιβ, and IL-10, in TOF patients undergoing open-heart surgery. A double-arm, randomized-controlled trial was conducted with 44 TOF patients.

Blood plasma and infundibulum heart tissues were collected for analysis. Whole blood samples were collected using a winged infusion needle before the intervention, an Abbocath infusion needle after 14 days of intervention, and a syringe without a needle connected to an arterial line in patients undergoing open-heart surgery at 6, 24, and 48  hours post-surgical correction.

In contrast, no significant differences in IL-10 levels were observed in the control group between after intervention and 48  hours post-surgery (p = 0.654).

Fortifying widely consumed foods with calcium is one approach for addressing this insufficiency.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Ca-fortified sweet potato noodles on osteoporosis prevention. This study used 4-month-old <i>Sprague-Dawley</i> rats. A completely randomized design was used with four treatment groups: CS (SHAM, control diet), CO (Sham, test diet), US (OVX, control diet), and UO (OVX, test diet). Both control and test diets, which included Ca-fortified sweet potato noodles, were administered to OVX (ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis model) and SHAM (control for surgical procedure) groups for two months. At the end of the experiments, serum Ca levels were collected and analyzed for Ca and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and their bones were analyzed for physical properties and bone mineral density (BMD) using X-ray analysis. Data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan as a post hoc test. The intervention of Ca-fortified sweet potato noodles for two months significantly increased serum Ca levels and reduced ALP levels compared to controls, both in SHAM (Ca: 38.03±0.877 mg/dL; ALP: 355±38.0 IU/L) and OVX (Ca: 36.18±2.810 mg/dL; ALP: 340±5.5 IU/L) groups.

There was no significant difference in BMD between the SHAM and OVX groups on the test diet, indicating that the test diet can maintain bone BMD despite accelerated aging.

The aim of this study was to analyze the expression of PD-L1, CTR-1, VEGF, and p53 in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients, comparing those sensitive and resistant to platinum-based chemotherapy. A cross-sectional study was conducted among EOC patients who underwent surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy between 2020 and 2023 at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia, with evaluations performed six months post-chemotherapy. The expression of PD-L1, CTR-1, VEGF, and p53 were measured using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and compared between chemotherapy-sensitive and resistant patients. A total of 65 patients were included: 31 resistant and 34 sensitive cases. The results showed higher PD- L1 expression in the resistant group compared to the sensitive group (mean combined positive score (CPS) of 0.46 ± 0.29 vs 0.17 ± 0.09, <i>p</i> < 0.00i). The CTR-1 expression was lower in the resistant group (immunoreactive score 2.90 ± 1.30) compared to the sensitive group (immunoreactive score 6.82 ± 2.68) with <i>p</i> < 0.001. VEGF and p53 expression were also higher in the resistant group (6.68 ± 2.59 vs 2.76 ± 1.10 and 64.68 ± 13.54% vs 30.15 ± 13.06%, respectively) compared to the sensitive group, with both having <i>p</i> < 0.001. The study suggests that increased expression of PD-L1, VEGF, and p53 and decreased CTR-1 expression are associated with platinum-based chemotherapy resistance among EOC patients.

Wedd., known as itchy leaves, is traditionally used for pain relief due to its bioactive compounds. However, previous studies were limited by resource-intensive in vivo methods and a lack of mechanistic insights into cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 binding. The aim of this study was to identify compounds in the n-hexane and ethyl acetate extracts of <i>L. decumana</i> with potential as COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors and to predict their binding affinity and stability within the binding pocket through molecular dynamics simulations. Leaves collected from Arso, Keerom Regency, Papua, Indonesia, were dried, sieved into simplicia, and macerated with n-hexane to obtain a n-hexane extract. The residual simplicia was further macerated with ethyl acetate to produce an ethyl acetate extract. N-hexane extract compounds were analyzed by gas chromatography- mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and ethyl acetate extract compounds by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Identified chemicals were used in in silico evaluations targeting COX-1 and COX-2. This study identified ten compounds with high performance in docking analysis, which were further evaluated by molecular dynamics. The n-hexane extract contained 31 compounds, while the ethyl acetate extract contained Among these, 4,8,12,16-tetramethylheptadecan-4-olide from the n-hexane extract demonstrated the strongest affinity for both COX-1 and COX-2, with binding free energies of -41.62 ± 1.03 kcal/mol and -33.05 ± 0.11 kcal/mol, respectively. Its interactions were comparable to those of native ligands, with superior binding free energy. In the ethyl acetate extract, pseudosantonim demonstrated the highest affinity for COX-1 (-24.4 ± 1.32 kcal/mol), while arteamisinine showed strong potential as a COX-2 inhibitor (-23.53 ± 0.30 kcal/mol). In conclusion, 4,8,12,16-tetramethylheptadecan-4-olide was the most potent COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor, pseudosantonim was the most effective COX-1 inhibitor, and arteamisinine demonstrated COX-2 inhibitory potential. Further validation through in vitro or in vivo studies is recommended.</p>","PeriodicalId":517416,"journal":{"name":"Narra J","volume":"5 1","pages":"e1627"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12059869/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144016379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
