Metal-on-metal arthroplasty may lead to elevated blood chromium (Cr) and cobalt (Co) levels (>7μg/l). Since carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects have been suggested, there is concern of pregnancy hazards for women with this condition. The 34-year-old patient has had a ...

tdTomato plasmid: MousePlin2homology arms were obtained by extracting DNA from mouse primary mouse NSPCs from the SVZ using DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (#69506, Qiagen). The sequences covering the sgRNA target site were extracted from the genomic DNA using PCR, run on a 1% agarose gel and...

BACKGROUND: High blood pressure (HBP) is probably one of the main targets for prevention in primary health care. Knowledge of the magnitude and control is needed for monitoring this health problem at the population level, The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of hypertension in...
Human UC-MSCs cultured up to the 6th passage were digested into a single-cell suspension, and the generation of single-cell gel beads (GEMs) was performed rapidly using the automated Chromium Controller system. The GEMs underwent reverse transcription, amplification, adapter ligation, and other ...
Other factors, such as age and level of activity, did not correlate with the levels of metal ions. We found that the levels of the ions in the serum were 1.39 and 1.37 times higher for chromium and cobalt respectively than those in the whole blood. The levels of metal ions obtained may...
Blood glucose level was measured every week during the experiment. A significant increase in BG level at the end of the tenth week in all groups was observed as compared to CG (p = 0.001) due to induction of DM. at the end of the study, the DG showed still very high blood gluco...
Blood chemistry and histopathological data were analyzed with STATA 9 software (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA); all other data analyses were carried out using SYSTAT 13 software (2009). A probability level of 0.05 was used to determine significance. 3. Results 3.1. Growth performance ...
To determine the cellular composition of human OTB, we conducted scRNA-Seq analysis (10 × Genomics Chromium System) of cells on the PTs and ATs from three patients with OTB in the first cohort (Fig. 1A). Detailed clinical information on the collected samples is provided in Supplementary...
