AbstractDespite all the new developments in cancer therapy, the life expectancy of patients with malignant anaplastic brain tumors and glioblastoma multiform (GBM) remains short. Since the establishment of the Di Bella Method (DBM) in cancer therapy, DBM was able to increase the survival rate and life quality, without overt toxicity, in comparison to what is… Continue reading A retrospective observational study on cases of anaplastic brain tumors treated with the Di Bella Method: A rationale and effectiveness

Hypertension after anti-COVID-19 vaccination
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) rapidly spread across the world, killing more than 4 million individuals globally, with 240 million individuals being confirmed by laboratory tests. Among different therapeutic strategies to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection, vaccines are the most promising approach for curbing the pandemic. They elicit an immune neutralizing response and thus offer… Continue reading Hypertension after anti-COVID-19 vaccination
Cannabinoid receptor 1 antagonist genistein attenuates marijuana-induced vascular inflammation
Epidemiological studies reveal that marijuana increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD); however, little is known about the mechanism. Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), the psychoactive component of marijuana, binds to cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1/CNR1) in the vasculature and is implicated in CVD. A UK Biobank analysis found that cannabis was an risk factor for CVD. We found… Continue reading Cannabinoid receptor 1 antagonist genistein attenuates marijuana-induced vascular inflammation
A Three-Case Series of Thrombotic Deaths in Patients over 50 with Comorbidities Temporally after modRNA COVID-19 Vaccination
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the most dramatic pandemic of the new millennium; to counteract it, specific vaccines have been launched in record time under emergency use authorization or conditional marketing authorization by virtue of a favorable risk/benefit balance. Among the various technological platforms, there is that exploiting a nucleoside-modified messenger RNA (modRNA), such as… Continue reading A Three-Case Series of Thrombotic Deaths in Patients over 50 with Comorbidities Temporally after modRNA COVID-19 Vaccination
Longitudinal multi-omics analyses link gut microbiome dysbiosis with recurrent urinary tract infections in women
Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) are a major health burden worldwide, with history of infection being a significant risk factor. While the gut is a known reservoir for uropathogenic bacteria, the role of the microbiota in rUTI remains unclear. We conducted a year-long study of women with (n = 15) and without (n = 16) history of rUTI, from… Continue reading Longitudinal multi-omics analyses link gut microbiome dysbiosis with recurrent urinary tract infections in women
Hourly Air Pollutants and Acute Coronary Syndrome Onset In 1.29 Million Patients
Short-term exposure to ambient air pollution has been linked with daily hospitalization and mortality of acute coronary syndrome (ACS); however, the associations of sub-daily (hourly) levels of criteria air pollutants with the onset of ACS and its subtypes have rarely been evaluated. Methods: We conducted a time-stratified case-crossover study among 1,292,880 ACS patients from 2,239… Continue reading Hourly Air Pollutants and Acute Coronary Syndrome Onset In 1.29 Million Patients
Increased emergency cardiovascular events among under-40 population in Israel during vaccine rollout and third COVID-19 wave
Cardiovascular adverse conditions are caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections and reported as side-effects of the COVID-19 vaccines. Enriching current vaccine safety surveillance systems with additional data sources may improve the understanding of COVID-19 vaccine safety. Using a unique dataset from Israel National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) from 2019 to 2021, the study aims… Continue reading Increased emergency cardiovascular events among under-40 population in Israel during vaccine rollout and third COVID-19 wave
Micronutrients and food choice: A case of ‘nutritional wisdom’ in humans?
Many reports show that non-human animals have the ability to select foods based on their micronutrient composition. However, it is unclear whether humans also have this ability, and researchers have lacked appropriate methods to investigate this question. In response to this challenge, we developed an approach that derives evidence from patterns of choices across a… Continue reading Micronutrients and food choice: A case of ‘nutritional wisdom’ in humans?
Rates of COVID-19 Among Unvaccinated Adults With Prior COVID-19
Risk of SARS-CoV-2 reinfection among unvaccinated people with prior COVID-19 is a subject of debate.1,2 We performed a survival analysis in a large US population to assess the degree and duration of protection associated with natural immunity in unvaccinated individuals MethodsThis cohort study used data from patients tested for SARS-CoV-2 at 1300 sites of care… Continue reading Rates of COVID-19 Among Unvaccinated Adults With Prior COVID-19
