High PD-L2 Expression Is Associated with Better Disease-Free Survival in Patients with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective: PD-L2 is expressed in various cancer tissues. Currently, the value of PD-L2 expression in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) tissues remains unclear. This study investigated the prognostic and clinical significance of PD-L2 expression in ICC.

Economic evaluations of human milk for very preterm infants: a systematic review.

Background: Very preterm infants are highly vulnerable to complications, imposing a significant economic burden on healthcare systems. Human milk has protective effects on these infants, but there is no systematic review on its economic impact.

Objective: We conducted a comprehensive review of studies assessing the economic evaluations of human milk for very preterm infants.

Preoperative serum CA125 level is a good prognostic predictor in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after hepatectomy: A single-center retrospective study.

Serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is associated with the prognosis of various malignancies, including ovarian and pancreatic cancer. The relationship between preoperative serum CA125 level and the survival of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) has not been fully studied. The aim of this study was to explore the prognostic value of CA125 in ICC after hepatectomy.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi alleviates salt stress in through improved osmotic tolerance, antioxidant activity, and photosynthesis.

Mycorrhizal inoculation was widely reported to alleviate the damage resulting from NaCl by various physiological ways. However, the symbiotic benefit under distant NaCl concentrations and the relationship among different responsive physiological processes were elusive. In this study, saline resistant plant was selected as the experimental material and five concentrations of NaCl in the presence or absence of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi (AMF) were conducted, in order to understand the differences and similarities on the photosynthesis, antioxidant activity, and osmotic adjustment between arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) plants and non-arbuscular mycorrhizal (NM) plants.

Growth, Physiological, and Photosynthetic Responses of Bunge Seedlings Under Various Degrees of Salinity.

Bunge is priced for its medical and energetic values. The species also plays a key role in stabilizing ecologically fragile areas exposed to excess soil salinity. In this study, the effects of salinity on the growth, physiological, and photosynthetic parameters of Bunge were investigated.
