INTRAOPERATIVE PERITONEAL INTERLEUKIN-6 CONCENTRATION CHANGES IN RELATION TO THE HIGH-MOBILITY GROUP PROTEIN B1 AND HEAT SHOCK PROTEIN 70 LEVELS IN CHILDREN UNDERGOING CHOLECYSTECTOMY

The aim was the evaluation of IL-6 concentration in peritoneal lavage fluid of children which underwent cholecystectomy to ascertain if there is a difference in early inflammatory response depending on the type of surgical approach (open vs.laparoscopy).The analysis of high-mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) was per

Prenatal immune challenge (PIC) in pregnant rodents produces offspring with abnormalities in behavior, histology, and gene expression that are reminiscent of schizophrenia and autism.Based on this, the goal of this article was to review the main contributions of PIC models, especially the one using the viral-mimetic particle polyriboinosinic-polyri

Compared with ground-based gravitational wave detection, space-based gravitational wave detection has become a research hotspot because of its abundant wave sources.However, how to reliably transmit the detection data, obtained by the space gravitational wave detector, back to the ground station from a distance of 105 kilometers is a huge challenge

Several low and lower- middle income countries have been using Performance-Based Financing (PBF) to motivate health workers to increase the quantity and quality of health services.Studies have demonstrated that PBF can contribute to improved health service delivery and health outcomes, but there is limited evidence on the mechanisms through which P
