Abstract Background: Hormone-sensitive cancers (HSCs) pose a significant threat to women’s health, with global rising incidence rates. This study provides the most up-to-date assessment of the global burden of HSCs. Methods: We retrieved HSC burden data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study (1990–2021), categorized by age groups, and extracted risk factors linked to HSC mortality.

Abstract Background: Nipah virus (Genus Henipavirus) was first detected in 1999, during the Malaysia-Singapore outbreak, and is an emerging bat-borne pathogen. It causes rare but fatal disease, with a 40-75% fatality rate, and clinically ranging from asymptomatic infection to fatal encephalitis. Methods: Publicly available literature, including preclinical and clinical studies, have been retrieved from PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science.

1 Introduction Chinese herbal medicines have primarily originated from foods. Over long periods of practical living experience, the medicinal properties of many herbs were gradually established (Hou and Jiang, 2013; Gu and Pei, 2017). Subsequently, foods with therapeutic properties were progressively separated and designated for specialized use as medicines (Hou and Jiang, 2013; He et al., 2018; Long et al., 2022).
