The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of luteolin on the inflammatory polarization...Latest...
Clonal hematopoiesis in human aging and diseaseAs people age, their tissues accumulate an increasing number of somatic mutations. Although most of these mutations are of little or no functional consequence, a mutation may arise that confers a fitness advantage on a cell. When this process happens in the hematopoietic system, a substantial proportion of circulating blood cells may derive from a single mutated stem cell. This outgrowth, called "clonal hematopoiesis," is highly prevalent in the elderly...

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Non‐Ischemic Diabetic Ulcers: A Systematic ReviewABSTRACT Diabetic foot ulcers are a common complication of diabetes, which affects 25% of patients and may ultimately lead to amputation of affected limbs. Research suggests hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves healing of these ulcers. However, this has not been reflected in previous reviews, possibly because they did not differentiate between patients with and without peripheral arterial occlusive disease. Therefore, we...
