What are the most popular directions in tumor immune research that can be linked to traditional Chinese medicine at present?
Traditional Chinese medicine has long been practiced in cancer care, yet its mechanistic interface with modern tumor immunology remains underexplored. Given the recent advances in immuno-oncology—particularly in areas such as gut microbiota modulation, tumor microenvironment reprogramming, metabolic reprogramming of immune cells, and reversal of T cell exhaustion—I am interested in identifying which of these frontiers offer the most scientifically rigorous and translatable entry points for...

For a change in the peer-reveiwing as an urgent need?
With an increasing number of Journal and other publication, the review by peer started to be difficult and very often nonqualified reviewers are solicited. Very often now the Journal send us a list that ressemble the directory a. This is a problem since many of the persons listed here do not have even a record over 10 and there are supposed to review works they don't know, and they are not qualified. I would like to start a huge discussion that can be sent to the main Journal to change the...

In austere/conflict settings, when does a complex surgery become ethically unjustifiable due to a lack of postoperative resources for managing complications?
As surgeons, we are trained to operate to solve a clinical problem. However, in severely resource-limited or conflict environments, this principle is constantly tested. Consider a scenario: A surgeon has the technical skill to perform a complex procedure (e.g., a pancreaticoduodenectomy for a tumor, or a complex limb salvage after trauma). However, the hospital lacks a reliable ICU, has inconsistent access to blood products, cannot provide parenteral nutrition, and has limited options for...

Does the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1 need to be measured in early disease screening in COVID-19 and AIDS patients?
The defective gene in the global chronic disease epidemic has now been linked to the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1. Sirtuin 1 is now an important gene for consideration in Frontiers and Genetics. Nutritional regulation of Sirtuin 1 is critical to nuclear receptors/transcription factors that are involved with glucose homeostasis, immune system, body temperature regulation, stem cell therapy and mitochondrial biogenesis. Plasma Sirtuin 1 levels may be of critical interest to COVID-19, AIDS and the...

Could the significantly increase in childhood diseases be associated with drug abuse and government (CDC) mandates for over-vaccination of public with pathogen-specific vaccines?
Overview of data on American health status (young and old) and the tremendous cost of healthcare (sick care, drug-dependency and hospitalization) provides compelling evidence that in the twentieth century nearly all classic disease categories (congenital, inherited, neonatal, or induced) that occurred at the rates of 2 to 5 % in the last century, shifted to increase induced diseases (at rates as high as 50 % or more), according to official reports by governmental agencies and private...

Why is the death rate of male in heart disease always higher than that of women? How can a male achieve that power?
It is clear from the report of WHO that the death rate of Male in heart-disease is higher than that of women. This observation suggests that the woman may have some physical advantage. Besides, differential food, beverage-drinking, and smoking habit, etc. can also contribute to it. For example, the habit of consuming oily foods (saturated fat harms heart) is more in the case of some individuals (taste matter). Although many people are aware of the issue, they can't change the food-habits....
Pings FAQ
What is a Ping?
A Ping is a single science-based question. The question comes from a fellow SciPinion Expert who is seeking input from the expert community. All participation in this service (i.e. asking or answering questions) is voluntary and anonymous if you prefer.
Can I post a Ping?
Yes, all SciPinion Experts are able to ask questions for the expert community to answer, provided you have Ping Credits. All Experts start with 3 Ping Credits (i.e., can ask 3 questions), and have the opportunity to earn more (e.g., by answering Pings from other experts, applying to panel opportunities).
Can I sponsor a Paid Ping?
Yes, please contact SciPinion if you would like to sponsor a Paid Ping.
What do I get for answering a Ping?
By answering a question from a fellow SciPinion Expert you earn 1 Ping Credit, which allows you to sponsor your own Ping (e.g., for every question you answer, you can ask your own question)
You also receive the satisfaction of helping your fellow experts and supporting the scientific community.
