The FGF23/α-Klotho Axis in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis: Associations with Bone Mineral Density and Diagnostic Discrimination

Background: Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and α-Klotho are key regulators of mineral metabolism and bone homeostasis; however, their combined diagnostic value in postmenopausal osteoporosis remains incompletely understood. This study investigated the associations of serum FGF23, α-Klotho, and the FGF23/α-Klotho r...

Differential Effects of Carboplatin, Metformin, and Boric Acid on Cell Viability, Migration, and Oxidative Stress in MCF-7 Breast Cancer and CRL-4010 Normal Mammary Epithelial Cells

Background/Objectives: Oxidative stress is a key contributor to breast cancer (BC) progression and therapeutic response. Although carboplatin is widely used in BC treatment, the effects of combining carboplatin with metformin and boric acid (BA) on cellular redox homeostasis remain poorly understood. This study investi...

Comparative Effects of Metformin, Boric Acid, and Lithium Chloride on Oxidative Stress-Mediated Cytotoxicity in HepG2 Hepatocarcinoma Cells.

Exploratory Biological Correlates of Cognitive and Language Performance in Healthy Pubertal Children: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study

The study’s confirmatory finding is the FDR-significant association of PIV with age-appropriate WISC-R Verbal performance, which suggests these relationships are best interpreted within a developmental and neuroimmune framework.
