By dint of a relatively high content of glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), radix glycyrrhizae preparata is often adopted to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). Thus, the mechanism of GA was expounded in our study. Our research concludes that GA alleviates AF through suppressing the expression of PIM1. Abstract Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) is known to exert a cardioprotective effect, while its mechanism in atrial fibrillation (AF) remains poorly defined.

Early diagnosis is vital to improving outcomes in any cancer, and a growing number of novel screening options have emerged to address this need. Patients now have more avenues available to understand their cancer risk, from genetic assessments for hereditary forms of cancer to advanced imaging tests. Among American men, prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death and the second most common cancer overall, affecting one in every eight men during his lifetime.
