Genetic aberrations of homologous recombination repair pathways in prostate cancer: The prognostic and therapeutic implications
Adv Med Sci. 2023 Sep 25;68(2):359-365. doi: 10.1016/j.advms.2023.09.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProstate cancer (PC) is the second most common cancer in men worldwide. Homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene defects have been identified in a significant proportion of metastatic castration-resistant PC (mCRPC) and are associated with an increased risk of PC and more aggressive PC. Importantly, it has been well-documented that poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibition in cells with HR deficiency (HRD) can cause cell death. This has been exploited for the targeted treatment of PC patients with HRD by PARP inhibi...

Adjunctive use of platelet-rich fibrin in surgical treatment of furcation defects: A systematic review
Adv Med Sci. 2023 Sep 25;68(2):366-371. doi: 10.1016/j.advms.2023.09.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPeriodontitis is an infectious disease characterized by the inflammatory destruction of the tooth supporting tissues. In multi-rooted teeth, this process leads to periodontal destruction within furcations creating defects demanding in terms of treatment. Regeneration of class II furcation involvement, although possible, is considered an unpredictable procedure, especially in terms of the bone fill. The interest in wound healing improvement by additional use of autologous concentrates of growth factors remains high in man...

Safety and efficacy of melatonin as an adjuvant therapy in COVID-19 patients: Systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Melatonin was found to have substantial effects on COVID-19 patients when used as adjuvant therapy, enhancing clinical improvement and decreasing time to recovery with a shorter length of hospital stay and a shorter duration of mechanical ventilation.PMID:37742478 | DOI:10.1016/j.advms.2023.09.007 (Source: Advances in Medical Sciences)

Alternative donor strategy in unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation - outcome with mismatched donors
CONCLUSION: Obtained results undisputedly indicate the necessity to further investigate this matter on a larger patient group, with focus on specific HLA alleles to define precisely priority criteria for selecting the best donor for all patients, thus improving the outcome of HSCT with an MMUD.PMID:37741003 | DOI:10.1016/j.advms.2023.09.003 (Source: Advances in Medical Sciences)
