Pineapple (Ananas comosus), the succulent and vibrant tropical fruit, is a symbol of exoticism and sweetness. The pineapple peel, often considered as waste, has garnered attention for its potential applications. The pineapple peel is rich in essential nutrients, including calcium, potassium, vitamin C, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and water, making it beneficial for the digestive system, weight management, and overall balanced nutrition. It contains significant amounts of sugars such as sucrose, glucose, and fructose, along with citric acid as the predominant organic acid...

As layered materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising two-dimensional (2D) materials. Interestingly, the characteristics of these materials are transformed from bulk to monolayer. The atomically thin TMDC materials can be a good alternative to group III-V and graphene because of their emerging tunable electrical, optical, and magnetic properties. Although 2D monolayers from natural TMDC materials exhibit the purest form, they have intrinsic defects that limit their application. However, the synthesis of TMDC materials using the existing fabrication tools and techniques is also not immune to defects...

New artificial intelligence tools have been developed that have implications for medical usage. Large language models (LLMs), such as the widely used ChatGPT developed by OpenAI, have not been explored in the context of anesthesiology education. Understanding the reliability of various publicly available LLMs for medical specialties could offer insight into their understanding of the physiology, pharmacology, and practical applications of anesthesiology. An exploratory prospective review was conducted using 3 commercially available LLMs--OpenAI's ChatGPT GPT-3...

Phantom shocks in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) recipients create a complex nexus between cardiac treatment and psychological distress. These sensations, mimicking therapeutic shocks without device activation, deeply affect patients' functionality and well-being. Heightened anxiety, depression, and hopelessness predispose individuals to these occurrences, posing significant challenges. This article delves into the intricate nature of phantom shocks, highlighting subtle clinical cues to differentiate them from genuine therapy shocks...

INTRODUCTION: Identifying an Infarct-related artery (IRA)in Non-STEMI is sometimes tricky. Besides, myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) mimickers are often labeled as myocardial infarction. Late Gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac MRI can help in identifying IRA besides MINOCA mimickers. AIMS: To study the role of LGE on cardiac MRI(CMR) in NSTEMI. MATERIAL METHODS: It was a prospective observational, double-blinded study...

INTRODUCTION: Surgical management of pediatric patients with non-lesional, drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE), including patients with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS), remains a challenge given the lack of resective targets in most patients, and demonstrates seizure freedom rates <50% at 5-years. The efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) is less certain in children than adults. This study examined clinical and seizure outcomes for pediatric patients with LGS undergoing DBS targeting of the centromedian thalamic nuclei (CMTN)...

BACKGROUND: Oral cancer is one of the major public health issues in Pakistan and is the second most common malignancy in the country. This is mainly attributed to the widespread use of smokeless tobacco products, cigarettes, and paan without tobacco. This review aims to go beyond commonly discussed factors and, consequently, to provide a comprehensive picture of all the multi-faceted contributors to the high prevalence of the carcinoma of the oral cavity, including the role of human papillomavirus and genetic predisposition...

Herein, we present the first, one-step, direct synthesis of unsymmetric phosphorotrithioates through a process involving sequential coupling of 1,1-dichloro- N , N -diethylphosphanamine with thiols and sulfenyl chloride. This method showcases excellent functional group tolerance, substrate compatibility, and mild reaction conditions, offering a streamlined approach for the challenging phosphorotrithioate synthesis. Additionally, the applicability of this method can be extended to the synthesis of mixed phosphoroselenodithioates...

AIM: In the present case-controlled study, we explored the role of genetic polymorphism in three xenobiotic metabolizing genes, GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1, and their association to gallbladder cancer (GBC) risk in a North Indian population. Its etiology is influenced by genetic, food habits, lifestyle, and environmental factors. GBC incidence is significantly higher in the Gangetic belt, India. Therefore, we explored the prognostic factors in the susceptibility of GBC through gene-gene and gene-environment interaction in this region...

The appropriate host cell immune responses for the progression of several diseases, including gastric or stomach cancer (GC), are significantly influenced by HLA polymorphisms. Our objective was to systematically review the evidence linking HLA polymorphisms with the risk of Helicobacter. pylori related GC. We conducted a comprehensive literature search to identify studies published between 2000 and April 2023 on the association of HLA polymorphisms with H. pylori related GC using databases such as Medline through PubMed, Embase, Web of Science (core collection), The Cochrane Library, and Scopus...

The presence of impaired microvascular coronary flow (MCF) identified by positron emission tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (PET-MPI) has been described in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) patients, contributes to blunted myocardial perfusion during vasodilator stress, and is a strong predictor of poor prognosis. A 45-year-old female with hypertension and obesity presented with angina. Her PET-MPI displayed vasodilator stress-induced global LV ischemia. However, her coronary angiogram revealed no obstructive coronary disease...

BACKGROUND: Air pollution is recognized as an emerging environmental risk factor for neurological diseases. Large-scale epidemiological studies associate traffic-related particulate matter (PM) with impaired cognitive functions and increased incidence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Inhaled components of PM may directly invade the brain via the olfactory route, or act through peripheral system responses resulting in inflammation and oxidative stress in the brain...

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a global health emergency, with well over six hundred million infections and over six million deaths to date. Besides other ramifications, it is also associated with inflammation and an augmented risk of thromboembolic complications. Despite this, the risks and benefits of antithrombotic drugs in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 have not been well-established and remain controversial. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of antithrombotic drugs on mild to moderate symptomatic COVID-19 patients by performing an updated systematic review and meta-analysis...
