I have already looked at this record and made a decision not to advance further for the time being as I did not find this topic exceptionally appealing.

Please accept my apologies. However, please also keep in mind this project is independent research and is supported by crowdfunding only. Anyway, I could not possibly appraise hundreds of reviews coming up daily on PubMed.

If you really need me to appraise this review ASAP, please consider buying a $1 to $600 Zheln subscription on Patreon, GitHub Sponsors, or Open Collective. Afterwards, you’ll be able to immediately PM me with the review request. Otherwise, you might as well send me a donation via PayPal with this reference in the message, and I’ll happily appraise it for you.

Sure thing, the decision to support Zheln is entirely yours to make. You can always reach out to me directly by email or on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or Telegram, and I’ll do my best to help you regardless of your donations.

Thank you for being on the project! That really matters.
