research Circulating monocytes as a marker of response to adalimumab in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa: A single institution, real-world cohort study
Higher monocyte counts may predict poor response to adalimumab in hidradenitis suppurativa patients.
research Sentinel lymph node status is the strongest independent predictor for disease free and overall survival in patients with thick melanoma
The health of the sentinel lymph node is the best indicator of survival for patients with thick skin cancer.
research BUZZ : an essential gene for postinitiation root hair growth and a mediator of root architecture in Brachypodium distachyon
The BUZZ gene is important for root hair growth and overall root structure in the plant Brachypodium distachyon.
