Abstract: Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the ultrasonic performance of bedside brain ultrasound in the observation of subependymal hemorrhages (SEH) in newborns and provide evidence for clinical prevention and treatment of hemorrhage. 152 cases of newborns diagnosed as SEH were examined and followed up regularly, and their ultrasonographic features were analyzed. As a result, the craniocerebral ultrasound found strong and slightly strong echo in the anterior horn of the lateral ventricle and the thalamic caudate nucleus region, which did not affect the lateral ventricle. In the early stage of hemorrhage, the lesions showed a high echo and the border was slightly blurred. The echo gradually increased and the boundaries became clear at the stable period. During the absorption period, the center of the lesion was low echogenic and the edge was still hyper echoic, and gradually formed a poorly sound, separated thick cyst cavity. Subsequently, there was no echo area in the center of the lesion, and eventually the lumen was formed under the subependymal hemorrhage. Post discharge follow-up showed that 6 cases (3.95% 6/152), 75 cases (49.34% 75/152), 37 cases (24.34% 37/152), 13 cases (8.55% 13/152) had their cyst cavity disappeared after their hemorrhage in 1 months and 2 months, 3 months and 6 months. The patients with their lesions basically absorbed within 6 months accounted for 86.18% (131/152). Conclusion: Intracranial ultrasound has the advantage of early diagnosis of SEH, and it can be used to observe the patient's bedside examination, to observe the change of the course of the disease dynamically, to evaluate the blood transfer, to effectively guide the clinical medication and evaluate the prognosis.

Abstract: The study was aimed to evaluate the effect of Consciousness Energy Healing-based vitamin D3 and DMEM medium on bone health parameters such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), collagen, and bone mineralization in human bone osteosarcoma cells (MG-63). The test items (vitamin D3 and DMEM), were divided into two parts. One part of each sample was received the Biofield Energy Treatment by Dimitrius Anagnos and those samples were denoted as the Biofield Energy Treated (BT) samples, while the other parts of each sample were referred as the untreated test items (UT). The test samples were found as safe in the tested concentrations by MTT cell viability assay. The level of ALP was significantly increased by 74.86% in the BT-DMEM + BT-Test item and 40.17% in the UT-DMEM + BT-Test item group at 0.1 and 50 µg/mL, respectively compared to the UT-DMEM + UT-Test item group. Moreover, collagen level was significantly increased by 228.22%, 185.40%, and 256.69% in the UT-DMEM + BT-Test item, BT-DMEM + UT-Test item, and BT-DMEM + BT-Test item groups, respectively at 0.1 µg/mL compared to the UT-DMEM + UT-Test item group. Further, the collagen level was significantly increased by 88.61% and 130.65% in the BT-DMEM + UT-Test item and BT-DMEM + BT-Test item groups, respectively at 1 µg/mL compared to the untreated group. Apart from this, the percent of bone mineralization was distinctly enhanced by 98.61%, 111.67%, and 68.26% in the UT-DMEM + BT-Test item, BT-DMEM + UT-Test item, and BT-DMEM + BT-Test item groups, respectively at 0.1 µg/mL compared to the untreated group. Additionally, the percentage of bone mineralization was significantly increased by 83.3%, 99.52%, and 50.26% in the UT-DMEM + BT-Test item, BT-DMEM + UT-Test item, and BT-DMEM + BT-Test item groups, respectively at 1 µg/mL compared to the untreated group. Altogether, the Biofield Energy Treated vitamin D3 was significantly improved the bone health parameters and it could be an alternative approach for nutraceutical supplement to combat vitamin D3 deficiency and able to fight against various bone-related disorders including rickets, low bone density, osteomalacia, bone and joint pain, bone fractures, osteoporosis, osteoma, osteogenesis imperfecta, Paget’s disease, deformed bones, chondrodystrophia fetalis, stress management and prevention, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, and anti-aging by improving overall health.

Abstract: Urinary tract infection (UTIs) are some of the most common infections experienced by humans and most common cause of both community and nosoncomial infection for patients admitted to hospitals in worldwide. To shed light on this subject, present study was done to investigate relationship between bacterial infection and renal failure after treatment by follow up general urine examination, blood urea and serum creatinine. Two hundred and thirty samples has been taken from individuals their ages between (2 to 70) years old males and females these included one hundred and five urine samples from females and one hundred and twenty five urine samples from males. Samples has been tested by general urine examination by microscope and by chemical tested by (Strip urine-uorscan) by using number of chemical factors like (S. siliva celicielic acid, Benedict, Barium chloride Bacl, Ehrlich's, Foshus), also culture and antibiotics sensitivity test was done. Results of general urine examination appears two hundred and twenty two suffer from urinary tract infection percent 96.5% and 8 only with no urinary tract infection in 3.45% percent from urine samples. It has been taken two hundred and twenty two blood Samples from individuals who has urinary tract infection then detected (Blood urea, serum creatinine and urine sugar tests) to know relationship between bacterial infections and renal failure. Also in this study detected different types of bacteria pathogens in which isolated from patients with urinary tract infection with or without renal failure, Serotyping and antibiotics sensitivity test also done to known more suitable drug for each pathogens and antibiotic resistance.

Abstract: The objective of the study was to investigate the role of CASC9 in esophageal cancer cells migration and invasion. Expression of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) CASC9 was found high in esophageal cancer cells by qRT-PCR. The CASC9 knockdown effects on cell migration and invasion were analyzed in vitro. Expression of lncRNA CASC9 was found markedly high in KYSE-450 cell line as compared to other esophageal cancer cell lines. After the knockdown of CASC9, migration and invasion were significantly decreased as compared to negative control. Increased expression of CASC9 before knockdown and decreased expression after knockdown in esophageal cancer cells, showed that CASC9 may act as a biomarker for esophageal cancer and may help to understand the mechanisms of this lethal disease.
