Can Carica papaya Serve as an Adjunct to Semaglutide in Mitigating Diabetes-Induced Testicular Injury Through Modulation of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, Apoptosis, and the miR-34c/miR-155–SIRT1/FOXO1 Axis? An Experimental and Chem-Bio-Informatics Study

Diabetes mellitus (DM) induces significant endocrine disruption and oxidative stress (OS) within the testes, resulting in impaired spermatogenesis, increased sperm abnormalities, and compromised reproductive function. This study aimed to evaluate the combined protective effects o...

Self-care recovery after ischemic stroke: a quasi-experimental comparison of two psychological interventions

Post-stroke patients often experience cognitive, psychological, and self-care impairments. Comparative evidence on mindfulness-based interventions and cognitive rehabilitation interventions remains limited. This study compared two psychological interventions (Mindfulness-Based St...

Green synthesis of Ni-doped ZnO nanoparticles using Salvia hispanica and their antibacterial, anticancer and anti-virulence activities

An environmentally benign approach was employed to synthesize nickel-doped zinc oxide (Ni–ZnO) nanoparticles employing Salvia hispanica extract as a biologically derived reductant and capping material. Phytochemical profiling confirmed the abundance of phenolic and flavonoid comp...

Characterization, Catalytic and Microbial Activities of Sustainable CoFe2O4 Nanoparticles via Adansonia digitata L. (Baobab) Fruit Pulp Extract Assisted by Microwave Hydrothermal Method

Novel biogenic cobalt ferrite nanoparticles were prepared biologically using Adansonia digitata L. (Baobab) Fruit Pulp Extract, assisted by a microwave heating method. The utilization of Adansonia digitata L. (Baobab) Fruit Pulp Extract assisted by microwave heating is considered...
