According to many, microbiology encompasses a special discipline: virology. I disagree. Virology is a distinct discipline, involving unique pathogens: viruses. As André Lwoff, Nobel Prize winner in 1965, said, viruses are viruses, assuming there are no other pathogens that use their method to generate progeny that is, more viruses...... ReadMore -

Acute STEMI is the most serious presentation of coronary artery disease (CAD), carrying severe consequences due to the occlusion of major coronary arteries. The primary goal in managing STEMI is early reperfusion therapy. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the preferred strategy for patients with acute STEMI, especially when performed promptly from the first medical contact (FMC) [1]. Despite achieving a patent infarct-related artery after revascularization, some patients experience the “no-reflow” phenomenon due to microvascular dysfunction. This phenomenon is defined as a coronary blood flow of less than TIMI 3 without significant stenosis, dissection, or an angiographically observed thrombus distal to the intervention site [2]. Intracoronary Nanitroprusside, an NO donor, has been found beneficial in improving blood..... ReadMore -

The term demilitarization refers to a complete set of processes that render weapons, ammunition and explosives unfit for their original purpose [1]. Demilitarization is a necessary step for military items before their release to a non-military environment and is carried out in a safe, inexpensive, practical and environmentally responsible manner [2]. Actions taken in demilitarization processes should make the item unidentifiable as ammunition after demilitarization [3]. The explosives in many conventional munitions are cast, so these munitions can be demilitarized by heating the explosive charge sufficiently to melt it and flow out of the munition. Explosives that melt at relatively low temperatures are, for example, Composition B (80°C) and TNT (80°C). Melting can be done by direct heat: steam, autoclave [4] or hot bath. The applied he.....

Lung cancer is the most common cancer in men and the 2nd most common cancer in women worldwide with more than 2.2 million new cases in 2020 [1]. Besides its high prevalence, the fiveyear overall survival rate for patients with lung cancer is very low in comparison to the other major type of malignancies, barely reaching to 23% in the United States of America in 2023 [2] while such rates are even lower in many other countries and regions [3]. The rather poor clinical outcome of patients with lung cancer are largely due to the late diagnosis of lung cancers, the majority of which are at clinical stage upon diagnosis, the limited efficacies and significant toxicities of current therapeutic treatments, the rapid acquisition of drug resistance, and the associated high rate of disease recurrence and progression......

The structure of arterial hypertension generally consists of cases of essential hypertension and symptomatic, the latter, according to WHO data, today is about 30% [1-3]. Endocrine hypertension of adrenal origin ranks second in frequency among symptomatic hypertension after renal hypertension and accounts for 6-10% [4-5]. Currently, the diagnosis and treatment of arterial hypertension of adrenal origin continues to be an urgent problem for both therapists and endocrinologist surgeons. This category of patients, along with hormonal disorders, has arterial hypertension, which is not amenable to drug correction, often with a severe clinical course and the development of complications. In the structure of all causes of increased blood pressure, secondary arterial hypertension accounts for up to 20%, of which 15-25% is due to arterial hyperten..... ReadMore
