Results The overall response rate (ORR) and mOS are described in Table 1. In the retrospective cohort, the 1, 2, and 3 year survival rates were 89%, 69%, and 61% respectively for patients with stable disease (SD). Similarly, in the prospective cohort, 1 and 2 year survival rates for patients with SD were 95% and 76%, respectively. The mOS was not reached for patients with SD in both cohorts. Th...

BACKGROUND Primary care medical officers (MOs) are expected to maintain self-education while serving in their units in order to maintain professional standards. With the rise of smartphone use in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the WhatsApp application can facilitate medical learning. To date, there has been no description of the use of this tool by MOs in a military setting. This paper aims t...

effect of dietary mixture of prebiotic mannan oligosaccharide (mos) and β-1,3glucan, on growth performance, survival and body composition in grass carp juvenile (ctenopharyngodon idella) were investigated for 56 days. practical diets were supplemented with 0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 g/kg mixture of mos and β-1,3glucan in a totally randomized design trial in triplicate groups. the experiment carri...

This study characterized gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cells from control- or mannan oligosaccharide (MOS)-fed pigs with or without porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) at d 7 postinfection (PI). Weaned pigs (3 wk old) fed 0 or 0.2% MOS (Bio-Mos) diets were intranasally inoculated with PRRSV or a steri...

OBJECTIVE Physically demanding jobs and history of deployment put Soldiers at increased risk for injury, hospitalizations, and disability. Characterizing differences in disability outcomes by occupation and deployment history may identify specific military populations for targeted prevention and intervention programs as well as potential areas of future research. METHODS A cross-sectional ana...

The meiotic cycle reduces ploidy through two consecutive M phases, meiosis I and meiosis II, without an intervening S phase. To maintain ploidy through successive generations, meiosis must be followed by mitosis after the recovery of diploidy by fertilization. However, the coordination from meiotic to mitotic cycle is still unclear. Mos, the c-mos protooncogene product, is a key regulator of me...

BACKGROUND Salmonella causes acute systemic inflammation by using its virulence factors to invade the intestinal epithelium. But, prolonged inflammation may provoke severe body catabolism and immunological diseases. Salmonella has become more life-threatening due to emergence of multiple-antibiotic resistant strains. Mannose-rich oligosaccharides (MOS) from cells walls of Saccharomyces cerevisi...

MoS₂/RGO composite hollow microspheres were hydrothermally synthesized by using SiO₂/GO microspheres as a template, which were obtained via the sonication-assisted interfacial self-assembly of tiny GO sheets on positively charged SiO₂ microspheres. The structure, morphology, phase, and chemical composition of MoS₂/RGO hollow microspheres were systematically investigated by a series of technique...
