With the increasing application of medical imaging contrast materials, contrast-induced
nephropathy has become one of the leading causes of iatrogenic renal insufficiency. The …

Oxidative stress caused by excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) accelerates telomere
erosion and mitochondrial injury, leading to impaired cellular functions and cell death. Whether …

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a chronic complication of diabetes and the most common cause
of end‐stage kidney disease. It has been reported that multiple factors are involved in the …

Background Both low‐carbohydrate (LC) and calorie-restricted (CR) diets have been shown
to have metabolic benefits. However, the two regimens have yet to be thoroughly compared. …

Labeling brain images as healthy or pathological cases is an important procedure for medical
diagnosis. Therefore, we proposed a novel image feature, stationary wavelet entropy (SWE…

The gene SerpinC1 encodes a serine protease inhibitor named antithrombin III (ATIII). This
protease demonstrates both anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory action. ATIII is the most …

We previously reported that insufficiency of antithrombin III (ATIII), the major anti-coagulation
molecule in vivo, exacerbated renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in animal models and …

The multi-depot vehicle routing problem is a well-known non-deterministic polynomial-time
hard combinatorial optimization problem, which is crucial for transportation and logistics …

Antithrombin III, encoded by SerpinC1, is a major anti-coagulation molecule in vivo and has
anti-inflammatory effects. We found that patients with low antithrombin III activities presented …

Clinical trials shows that remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC) can protect against contrast
induced nephropathy (CIN) in risky patients, however, the exact mechanism is unclear. In …
