A frequent benign breast tumor, fibroadenoma mammae (FAM), has extra stromal and epithelial components in the breast tissue. Despite not being fatal, FAM increases breast cancer risk, highlighting the necessity to recognize it. Estrogen and progesterone levels during menstruation, pregnancy, and lactation may alter FAM development. Therefore, this study examines FAM risk variables in adult wome...

Hepatitis B therapeutic vaccines hold great promise in the treatment of chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, like any medical intervention, they also face certain prospects and challenges which forms the aim of this critical review. Therapeutic vaccines offer a targeted approach to manage chronic Hepatitis B infections, aiming to stimulate the immune system to recognise and elimi...

Cutaneous adverse reactions (CARs) after COVD-19 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines have been reported worldwide, but the pathophysiology of CARs remains to be elucidated. To understand the pathophysiology, it is essential to know how the innate and adaptive immunity are activated after vaccination. At present, majority of CARs are presumed to be evoked by innate immunity response. Revi...

Interferon Gamma (IFN-γ) plays a vital role in normal immune surveillance and possesses immunomodulatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties. It stands as the exclusive type II IFN, and its production is regulated by cytokines released by Antigen-Presenting Cells (APCs), particularly interleukin (IL)-12 and IL-18. These cytokines act as a connecting link between infection and IFN-γ produc...

The Mongolian nomadic nation has created bone healing, or fracture healing, which is suitable for the extreme weather and territory, unique living conditions, and physical characteristics while struggling to fight diseases during a long historical period. Gradually, this treatment method has gradually developed into a more comprehensive theoretical system throughout history and has unique names...

Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the HMG (Hyperplasia of the Mammary Gland) effect of RuXian-I in estrogen- and progestogen- induced HMG rats is mediated through the activation of MAPK (Mitogen activated protein kinase) and NF-κB signaling pathways. Materials and methods: Fifty virgin female Wistar rats were random...

The objective of this research was to determine the change in hepcidin levels and other biochemical markers, including total iron binding capacity (TIBC), serum iron, testosterone, and specific vitamins in the blood of individuals with β-Thalassemia. Here, 140 participants were involved in the study, of whom 110 were affected by β-thalassemia and 30 were healthy. The samples were obtained from ...

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the hesitancy towards vaccination and to identify the factors and predictor variables within the study population. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study conducted via a web-based platform where a validated questionnaire was circulated among the public to understand their hesitancy towards vaccination...

Objective: To evaluate the effect of HTK (Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate solution) infusion on the protection and replantation of amputated limb. Methods: In experiment 1, the amputated limbs of male New Zealand white rabbits were preserved by different preservation methods, including low-temperature HTK solution perfusion group, low-temperat...

Studies conducted on the chemical composition of the genus Trichilia have isolated and identified 334 different compounds such as monoterpenes, diterpenes, sesquiterpenes, triterpenes, limonoids, steroids, coumarins, lignans, flavonoids, amino acid, phenolic acids, and lactones. This genus is used in traditional medicine for the manufacture of antibacterial, antioxidant, anti...

The abuse of flunitrazepam, tramadol and levonorgestrel among adolescents is a major problem, with adverse effects on the immune system. Neutrophils serve as the host primary defense and employ the role of an essential enzyme, myeloperoxidase. This study investigated the in vitro effect of flunitrazepam, tramadol and levonorgestrel on the activity of the neutrophil. Neutro...

Objectives: Natalizumab is an injectable DMT (disease-modifying therapy) which used for RRMS (relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis) since 2006. The drug has been available in Iran since 2014. Introduction: This study was aimed to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of Natalizumab in a referral center in Tehran, Iran. This study is the first r...

Background: LC3 serves as a marker for assessing autophagy activity in cancer cells, which is a potential focus for therapeutic interventions. It holds the potential to serve as a predictive indicator of resistance to chemotherapy in colorectal cancer. Thus, this study is aimed at finding the association between LC3 expression, metastasis, and chemotherapy response in colo...

Inflammation is a complex process which is associated with the initiation and progression of cancer. Prolonged Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress triggers inflammation which is a key factor associated with cancer pathogenesis. ER stress also contributes to immune suppression in inflammatory and tumor microenvironment. It stimulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by regulating the a...

Background: The immunotherapy approach to colorectal cancer is becoming one of the key approaches to colorectal cancer treatment. One of the components of immune responses is tumor‐infiltrating lymphocyte CD8+ cells (TILs CD8+). While chemotherapy is one of the main treatments for colorectal cancer, we need to consider immunotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer. Thus, th...

Background: Thyroid carcinoma represents a significant global health burden, rising worldwide incidence. Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) accounts for most cases, but aggressive variants with capsular invasion and nodal metastases require more intensive treatment. Reported rates of these capsular invasion and cervical lymph node metastasis vary widely. This study aimed to...

Epidermal Nevus Syndrome (ENS) is a congenital disorder characterized by skin lesions called epidermal nevi. This condition typically appears at birth or in infancy. However, a case of adult‐onset epidermal nevi was reported in a 36‐year‐old male with a history of atopic dermatitis (AD) and skin abnormalities on the right side of his body. He had been using topical steroids for AD but eventuall...

One of the primary concerns for women in good health is breast cancer. The most typical hazardous growth is this one. It spreads easily, and the clinical conditions are terrible.
