At baseline, of the total patients, 83% patients had established cardiovascular and kidney failure risk. Nonfatal myocardial infarction occurred in 2.9% of the patients receiving semaglutide and in 3.9% of those receiving placebo (hazard ratio, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.51–1.08; P = 0.12); non...
4). However, emerging human activities such as over-exploitation, overgrazing, damming, and deforestation in some local areas can cause shifts in erosion-deposition patterns in alpine mountainous areas (Supplementary Fig. 10), exacerbating soil erosion and deposition in rivers26,40. Despite the ...
Observational and reanalysis datasets reveal a northward shift of the convective regions over northern Africa in summer and an eastward shift in winter in the last four decades, with the changes in the location and intensity of the thermal lows and subtropical highs also modulating the dust loading...

not the ability to close the hand for grasping, as one previous study attempted to correct [67,86]. Another problem with grasping task performance is that patients with brain injuries may have difficulty releasing objects due to uninhibited grasp reflexes [99]. Failure to release the grasped obj...
Here we uncover the impacts of climate variability and anthropogenic activities including (i) Yangtze flow and sediment alterations by the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) and (ii) human water consumption in agricultural, industrial, and domestic sectors throughout the downstream Yangtze Basin. Results suggest...
The failure of current therapies to eradicate breast cancer is hypothesized to be due to the existence of a subpopulation of cells that can evade the effects of these treatments. Substantial evidence indicates that breast CSCs are intrinsically resistant to chemo-, radio-, and endocrine therapies an...
Cells of these two species were found in a middle Albian sample collected from Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas. The cells are considered to be recent concomitants from the Fort Worth Dam water as none of the other Albian samples examined yielded any desmid cells. Placoderm desmid cells ...
In the “non-inflamed tumors” T cells are absent in tumor beds and tumor edges. So, this type of tumors is generally affected by a failure in T cell priming and needs strategies that could deliver autologous/allogenic effector cells into the cancer.14,15 Other types of tumors, d...
Major advances in cancer treatment have emerged with the introduction of immunotherapies using blocking antibodies that target T-cell inhibitory receptors, such as programmed death-1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), known as immune checkpoints. However, most cancer ...
