Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 1611: An Overview of the Spices Used for the Prevention and Potential Treatment of Gastric Cancer
We present the potential molecular mechanisms responsible for the effectivity of a given seasoning substance and their impact on GC cells. We discuss their potential effects on proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. For most of the spices discussed, we also outline the unavailability and side effects of their use. (Source: Cancers)

Phytotherapeutic recommendations in medical guidelines for the treatment of gastroenterological diseases - a systematic review
Z Gastroenterol. 2024 Apr 11. doi: 10.1055/a-2279-5045. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPhytotherapeutics are gaining influence in the treatment of gastroenterological diseases. Their popularity and growing evidence of efficacy contribute to their integration into medical guidelines. A systematic screening identified recommended phytotherapeutic approaches. Based on current scientific data, some recommendations for the use of phytotherapeutic agents are given. For irritable bowel syndrome the use of peppermint oil is "strongly recommended", especially for pain and flatulence. Other phytotherapeutics such as STW-5, Tibetan Pa...

Exploring The Diverse Therapeutic Potentials of Synthetic Analogues of Keto-terpenoids (+) Carvone: A Future Scaffold
CONCLUSION: S(+) carvone has a CNS depressive impact and possesses an anti-convulsant activity. According to the research parameters on both the enantiomers, R&S can block GABA binding sites. Therefore, it suggests that S(+) carvone may be the new moiety for anticonvulsant activity. It has been observed by various studies that the S(+) carvone is more powerful than R(-) carvone. Therefore, it can be concluded that S(+) Carvone can serve as a scaffold for anticonvulsant activity.PMID:38551059 | DOI:10.2174/0118715249278766240322054108 (Source: Molecular Medicine)

Methyl Red Adsorption on Biochar Obtained by Physical Activation of Caraway Seeds with Carbon Dioxide
In this study carbon adsorbents were produced from caraway (Carum carvi L.) seeds, through direct and physical activation by carbon dioxide. The resulting biochar adsorbents were analyzed using low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms and Boehm titration. Furthermore, the acid-base properties of the biochar samples obtained were examined, and the pH of their aqueous extracts was determined. The obtained adsorbents had a specific surface area ranging between 10 to 70 m2/g. Resulting carbon materials exhibited a predominance of basic groups on their surfaces. The sorption capacities of methyl red for the samp...

Advances in Implant Technologies for Spine Surgery
Spine implants are becoming increasingly diversified. Taking inspiration from other industries, three-dimensional modeling of the spinal column has helped meet the custom needs of individual patients as both en bloc replacements and pedicle screw designs. Intraoperative tailoring of devices, a common need in the operating room, has led to expandable versions of cages and interbody spacers. (Source: Neurosurgery Clinics of North America)
