“…Reduced risks of some types of cancer and other diseases have been associated with the adoption of such a diet, as have increased antioxidants, inhibitors of lipid peroxidation, decrease of pro-inflammatory cytokine production, etc. …”

“…New imino sugar glucosidase inhibitors are also disclosed, a class of compounds with potential for diabetes, Gaucher disease or cancer treatment. Also the development of a useful synthetic method towards multivalent glycoclusters of biomedical interest is here highlighted. …”

“…Because of its biological importance, numerous disorders have been recently linked to the deregulation of iron homeostasis, which include not only the typical disorders of iron overload and deficiency but also cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. This leads iron metabolism to become an interesting therapeutic target for novel pharmacological treatments against these diseases. …”

“…Most aspects of our lives are now touched by artificial intelligence in one way or another, from deciding what books or flights to buy online to whether our job applications are successful, whether we receive a bank loan, and even what treatment we receive for cancer. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) as a part of AI maintains the capacity to solve problems such as regression and classification with high levels of accuracy. …”

“…With this Special Issue, we have aimed to collect, publish and disseminate some of the most significant and recent contributions using both natural compounds present in living organisms and some of their chemical derivatives aimed at reducing the risk of developing inflammatory and oxidative diseases such as cancer, metabolic syndrome and other human disorders related to the bone, vascular and ocular systems. …”

“…Immunotoxins are functionally designed to eliminate the cells responsible for pathological conditions, and they find applications in several fields, ranging from cancer to immunological diseases or pain control. …”

“…Indeed, many syndromes and genetic and complex diseases--cancer, autoimmunity, neurological and developmental disorders, and metabolic and cardiovascular diseases--can be caused by mutations/alterations in regulatory sequences, transcription factors, splicing regulators, cofactors, chromatin regulators, ncRNAs, and other components of transcription apparatus. …”

“…Physical inactivity is associated with a number of diseases, e.g. cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, type-2-diabetes, cancer, and osteoporosis. Worldwide, 17% of the population is estimated to be physically inactive and 40% are estimated to be insufficiently active. …”

“…Results We included six systematic reviews which evaluated the effect of oral versus intravenous administration of antibiotics for pneumonia, urinary tract infection, osteomyelitis, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, and febrile neutropenia in cancer patients. In addition, we included 10 randomized controlled trials. …”

“…This e-book provides a historical background, innovations in detection, identification and medical countermeasures against this biothreat, and the toxin's previous use as an anti-cancer agent. This e-book answers various important questions such as detection of ricin in food or soil, making of humanized antibody against the toxin, novel approaches for the creation of a safe vaccine to protect first responders, exploitation of toxin`s ability to bind and penetrate cells for medical benefits, aftereffects of administering antibody against ricin to a first responder and their exposure to the toxin, neutralization of different ricin from different castor plant cultivars. …”

“…This chapter discusses the recent emergence of advocacy for 'One Health' (OH): the idea that greater interdisciplinarity across the domains of human and animal health research, clinical practice and policy is essential for addressing contemporary problems such as zoonotic disease, food safety, cancer and drug development. Over the past decade, the language of OH has been taken up by increasingly prominent actors in global health and biomedicine, including funders, international agencies and pharmaceutical companies; however, there has been a long history of veterinary led advocacy for similar ideas since the late 19th century. …”

“…One rapidly developing area is the use of deep neural networks for medical imaging, with applications ranging from diagnosing chest X-rays to the early detection of Alzheimer's to identifying cancer in pathology slides. Despite this variety of applications, there remain some crucial unanswered questions. …”
