BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern characterised by irreversible renal damage that is often assessed using invasive renal biopsy. Accurate evaluation of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) is crucial for ...
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a debilitating chronic condition characterized by pelvic pain and urinary disturbances, making its diagnosis challenging due to overlapping symptoms with various lower urinary tract disorders. C...

Lipedema is a chronic disease in females characterized by pathologic subcutaneous adipose tissue expansion and hitherto remains without druggable targets. In this observational study, we investigated the molecular hallmarks of lipedema using an unbia...
BACKGROUND: Surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices are simpler and more practical alternatives to insulin-based IR indicators for clinical use. This study explored the association between surrogate IR indices, including triglyceride-glucose index ...
Thyroid eye disease (TED) features immune infiltration and metabolic dysregulation. Understanding these processes and identifying potential biomarkers are crucial for improving diagnosis and treatment. To this end, immune cell infiltration was analyz...
OBJECTIVES: Dengue virus (DENV) infection is a significant global health concern, causing severe morbidity and mortality. While many cases present as a mild febrile illness, some progress to life-threatening severe dengue (SD). Early intervention is ...
Aging involves the progressive accumulation of cellular damage, leading to systemic decline and age-related diseases. Despite advances in medicine, accurately predicting biological age (BA) remains challenging due to the complexity of aging processes...
This study aimed to explore the molecular characteristics of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Differentially expressed gene analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and machine...

BACKGROUND: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common medical complications during pregnancy. In the Gulf region, the prevalence of GDM is higher than in other parts of the world. Thus, there is a need for the early detection of G...
BACKGROUND: The objective was to develop a biological age prediction model (NC-BA) for the Chinese population to enrich the relevant studies in this population. And to investigate the association between accelerated age and NAFLD.
