Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverview of Atherosclerotic Plaque: From Formation to ComplicationAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Varvara Alexandrovna Orekhova, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Atherosclerosis is a serious worldwide health problem. The pathogenesis of this disease is complex and includes a multilevel interaction of such processes as inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, mitochondrial dysfunction, and multiple modifications of lipid particles. With the increase in life expectancy, mankind is more and more often faced with the unpleasant consequences of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a precursor to serious health … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 6 Mar 2024 · 5,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of an Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) Toothpaste to Combat Gum and Tooth PainMunashe K. F. Chakamanga, Ashley Kumalo K, Dirk Hamadziripi MGum inflammation also known as gingivitis is primarily caused by the accumulation of dental plaque that forms on teeth. The inflammation triggers pain in the gums and surrounding tissues due to increased blood flow and immune activity aimed at combating the bacterial infection. Thus, this study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of Yarrow-based toothpaste in reducing gum inflammation. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2026 · 420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Comparative Effectiveness of Ensemble CatBoost Versus XGBoost Models in Predicting Heart Disease OutcomesManivannan D., G. Gifta Jerith, G. Chandra Sekhar et al.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are a common form of heart disease that remains a significant global cause of mortality, responsible for more than 30% of all fatalities. Without intervention, the global fatality count is projected to reach 22 million by 2030. Arterial plaque buildup may impede blood flow, potentially causing heart attacks or strokes. A combination of risk causes, including lack … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 4 May 2026 · 1,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvancing Stroke Lesion Segmentation With U-Net Variants: Classical, Transfer Learning, and MRI Sequence-Specific Customized ApproachesSonia Flora Panesar, Amit P. GanatraIschemic stroke, caused by restricted cerebral blood flow, is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Accurate segmentation of stroke lesions in MRI is essential for timely diagnosis but remains labor-intensive when done manually. This study presents a comparative evaluation of three U-Net variants for automated ischemic stroke lesion segmentation using the ISLES 2022 dataset: (1) Classical U-Net with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2026 · 1,791 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Benefits of Selected Nutritional Compounds Towards Atherosclerosis ManagementAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Mariam Bagheri Ekta, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Globally, the prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome is steadily rising, potentially giving rise to the most extensive non-communicable health crisis ever recorded blocking the flow are able to break and cause a blood clot. The possible consequence is a significant increase in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease rate. The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease largely depends on modifiable factors, however, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2023 · 5,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChronic Mental Stress Induces Reversible Reduction of Natural Killer Cells and CD56dim SubpopulationManar M. IsmailGenerally, studying to be a health care provider is a stressful and demanding field and the students have to face many stressors that may affect their general health status including the immune system. This work aimed at studying the effect of prolonged naturalistic life-stress exposure on the percentage of peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and Natural Killer (NK) cells in female laboratory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Clothing Insulation for Thermal Comfort: A Numerical Study using Bio-Heat Transfer ModelKabita Luitel, Dil Bahadur Gurung, Harihar Khanal, Kedar Nath UpretyClothing plays a major role in protecting the human body from cold and hot environment by working as an insulator. The physical factors such as conduction, convection, radiation, evaporation and the physiological factors such as blood flow and metabolism within the body together with clothing system help to maintain human thermal comfort and the human thermoregulatory system.

Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of A Rapid IgM-IgG Combined Antibody Test for SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Single Italian Center StudyKatia Margiotti, Marina Cupellaro, Sabrina Emili et al.The need for timely establishment of diagnostic assays of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is demanded in laboratories worldwide. We evaluated the performance of a flow immunoassay which can detect IgM an IgG antibodies simultaneously against SARS-CoV-2 virus in human blood within 15 min. Among the 132 positive novel Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19) cases, 126 tests were consistent … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2020 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Short Term in vitro Stress Hormone Exposure on Regulatory T Cell Number and Function in AsthmaKristina E. Rehm, Gailen D. Marshall, Jr.Asthma is characterized by alterations in the immune system, including regulatory T cells (Treg). Further alterations in Treg numbers and/or function caused by stress hormones may be a contributing factor in asthma pathogenesis. We compared Treg populations and the effects of Dexamethasone (DEX, a laboratory analog of cortisol) on Treg cell number and function in patients with asthma and a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2015 · 6,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLINICAL EXPERIENCE OF CANCER IMMUNOTHERAPY INTEGRATED WITH OLEIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH DE-GLYCOSYLATED VITAMIN D BINDING PROTEINEmma Ward, Rodney Smith, Jacopo J.V. Branca et al.Proteins highly represented in milk such as α-lactalbumin and lactoferrin bind Oleic Acid (OA) to form complexes with selective anti-tumor activity. A protein present in milk, colostrum and blood, vitamin D binding protein is the precursor of a potent Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) and in analogy with other OA-protein complexes, we proposed that OA-GcMAF could demonstrate a greater immunotherapeutic activity … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2014 · 13,186 accessesView PDFCite
