TL;DR: Findings clearly demonstrate post-surgical cognitive impairment associated with changes in biomarkers similar to that seen in Alzheimer's disease, suggesting a unifying pathognomic factor between the two disorders.

TL;DR: The thrombin generation test has great clinical potential, and will contribute to a better understanding and evaluation of overall hemostatic processes; however, this method still requires standardization and clinical validation.

TL;DR: An up‐to‐date review about vitamin D receptor polymorphisms and their association with PCOS is provided.

TL;DR: Some molecular pathways associated with PCOS that could contribute to the better understanding about this syndrome are discussed to clarify some aspects of PCOS pathogenesis and inspire new strategies to prevent the syndrome as well as treat its symptoms and mitigate the risk of long-term complications.

TL;DR: The allelic frequencies of apoE epsilon2, ePSilon3 and epsilus4 were similar in dyslipidemic and normo-lipidic subjects, suggesting that apo E polymorphisms have no effect on plasma lipid-lipoprotein levels in dys Lipoproteins as biomarkers to predict adverse cardio-vascular and/or neuro-psychiatric maladies.
