Plant growth and development exhibit plasticity, and plants can adapt to environmental changes and stress.Various phytohormones interact synergistically or antagonistically to regulate these responses.Melatonin and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) are widespread across plant kingdom.Melatonin, an important member of the neuroendocrine immune regulatory n
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled a majority of hospital systems to reduce surgical and procedural volumes in an attempt to preserve resources.Elective Youth Bed surgery and procedures resumption has proven to be a calculated risk between COVID-19 exposure and resource depletion and patient morbidity and mortality from surgical defe
Abstract: Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is a method to measure insulin resistance.HOMA-IR cut-offs for identifying metabolic syndrome might vary across populations and body mass index (BMI) levels.We aimed to investigate HOMA-insulin resistance cut-offs that best discriminate individuals with insulin resistance and wi
We established a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) antigen (Ag) panel from culture supernatants of 27 HIV-1 isolates, including 11 HIV-1 subtypes, circulating recombinant forms (CRFs), and groups (HIV-1 types), to evaluate the HIV-1 Ag detection sensitivity and HIV-1 type specificity of three HIV-1 Ag/antibody (Ab) combination tests appro
