✅ PNS (Peripheral nervous system) disease comprises a wide range of manifestations from acruable damage to nerve body degeneration. Finding proper imaging sequences of MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to maximize the detection sensitivity and specificity of PNS injuries, is the purpose for which this study was conducted.

✅ The present study revealed that curcumin had no significant therapeutic effects on reducing the activity of RA; however, no significant side effects were observed on the patients, and it also showed its analgesic effect well.

✅ Regarding the results this study, it seems that patients with essential tremor have a significant decrease in some RNFL and GCL factors compared to healthy people. However, the majority of variables examined from RNFL and GCL in our study did not show significant differences. Moreover, this thinning could be associated with the neurodegenerative nature of the disease.

✅ This study shows that the implanted artificial vessel used in sheep carotid arteries has a favorable patency rate and satisfactory clinical results, and in terms of mechanical properties, it may be a good candidate for vascular replacement.
✅ VPA enhances the effects of gentamicin and polymyxin on Acanthamoeba. Combining a low concentration of VPA (≥3 mg/ml) with gentamicin and polymyxin increases the potency and speed of action of these antibiotics.
✅ Alarming resistance rates were observed in ampicillin and piperacillin, which should be taken into account in therapy guidelines in this area. Prevalence of resistant strains can be avoided by developing appropriate healthcare policies and community awareness.
✅ The HRM technique was an accurate and inexpensive method for investigating the genetic differences between the four studied populations.

✅ Among all the methods used, MCP outperformed other penalties, selecting a smaller subset with compatible performance. Two key genes, ADORA3 and C16orf72, were found to be associated with psoriasis and were identified for further study. These genes may serve as genetic biomarkers for predicting psoriasis.

✅ The management of AHSCT will be more efficient by considering the age, CD34+ CPK, and TDIG. For enhanced engraftment, adjusting the G-CSF injection days for <4 days and total dose of G-CSF on <4000 micrograms are suggested.
✅ The results of this study point out that the S. platensis phenolic extract has anticancer potential, and the phytoconstituents contributed to the anticancer effects.
✅ We report the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis. Appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic interventions should be undertaken for primary hyperparathyroidism to prevent the recurrence of pancreatitis and hypercalcemia.
✅ Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious virus that can bring about severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
