The Impact of Acute and Chronic Exercise on Immunoglobulins and Cytokines in Elderly: Insights From a Critical Review of the Literature
Published 2021“…We additionally identified that short-term endurance training at moderate intensities and the combination of endurance, strength, balance, and flexibility training increase plasma IL-10 and reduce plasma IL-6 and TNF-α in healthy elderly adults and male patients with chronic heart failure. Strength training for 6-12 weeks did not alter plasma IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α concentration in healthy elderly adults and patients with chronic-degenerative diseases, while 12 weeks of resistance training decreased muscle TNF-α mRNA in frail elderly individuals. …”

Potential mechanisms of human recombinant arginase I (Co)-PEG5000 [HuArgI (CO) - PRG5000] induced cytotoxicity in glioblastoma cells. (c2018)
Published 2018“…The addition of chloroquine, an autophagy inhibitor, increased the sensitivity of cells to [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000]-mediated arginine depletion at earlier time points. We also concluded that autophagy was activated in response to arginine depletion and plays a protective role at early time points. …”

Outcomes of POCUS‐Guided Peripheral Intravenous Access in Difficult Venous Access Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Published 2025“…A systematic review of 15 studies with 1485 patients, sourced from five databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, showed POCUS significantly improved success rates (OR: 4.25), first‐attempt success (OR: 5.31), reduced attempts (MD: −0.83), and decreased procedure time (MD: −9.75 min). Fewer complications (OR: 0.49) observed with POCUS compared to standard techniques. …”
