Abstract This study investigates the surface morphology, microhardness, and electrochemical corrosion behavior of Ti-Mn alloys reinforced with hydroxyapatite (HA) at 5, 10, and 15 wt% concentrations, fabricated via spark...

Gold nanoparticles have many applications in the biomedical field, mainly for drug delivery, cancer therapy, and detection of pathogenic microorganisms. In this study, gold nanoparticles synthesized using Platycodon gran...

In this study, hydroxyapatite and 3 mol. % yttria stabilized zirconia–hydroxyapatite (YSZ–HAp) composites were synthesized using the co-precipitation method. The composites were produced with 1, 4, and 7 wt. % of...

The presented study is focused at identifying the genetic predispositions for anaerobic performance in a group of elite fencers of the Czech Republic. Based on theoretical findings and previous studies, we assume that th...

This study aimed to explore the factors influencing health science students’ perceptions of healthcare analytics as a potential career. A qualitative study was conducted among final year health science students enrolle...

People with dementia (PwD) face cognitive decline, placing added stress on family caregivers. Challenging behaviour, such as agitation, is one of the prominent behaviours exhibited by PwD, and family caregivers are often...

Abstract Background Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is considered a revolution in gene expression studies and offers significant benefits across various fields of biomedical or clinical applications. However, a hi...

Background: Deep learning has transformed medical imaging by enabling earlier and more accurate disease diagnosis. Lesion and tumor segmentation, essential for analyzing and tracking morphological changes, is commonly do...

Abstract Cerebrovascular regulatory capacity is essential for maintaining brain stability. Most previous studies have focused on middle-aged and elderly populations, where regulation depends on vasodilation with reduced ...

Abstract Background Enchondromas (EC) present cartilaginous tumors that are difficult to differentiate from their intermediate counterpart, atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACT). Histologically, tumor distinction of these ...

Abstract Background Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein-1 (pitp-1) is involved in the phosphoinositide (PIP) cycle. The role of pitp-1 in promoting healthy longevity remains unknown. Our previous work showed that the P...

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder of the brain that affects around 50 million people worldwide. The early detection of epileptic seizures using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is a useful tool for several ap...

Abstract Background The ability to guide stem cells toward the bone-forming lineage is a fundamental aspect of regenerative medicine. Conventional protocols for osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells typica...

Abstract Background Signaling molecules play a critical role in regulating stem cell-mediated bone regeneration. In this study, we investigated the effect of EphB4 gene transfection on the osteogenic differentiation and ...

Segmentation is often a critical step in image analysis. Microscope image components show great variability of shapes, sizes, intensities and textures. An inaccurate segmentation conditions the ulterior quantification a...
