Decoding IBD progression: a dynamic biomarker atlas for personalized disease stratification.

Journal of translational medicine
BACKGROUND: Accurate staging is pivotal for tailoring treatment intensity, optimizing resource allocation, and improving long-term patient outcomes in IBD. The intestinal microbiota and transcriptional profiles emerge as critical determinants in IBD ...

Associations of the intestinal microbiota with plasma bile acids and inflammation markers in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Scientific reports
Our study explores signatures for Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) reflecting an interplay between the intestinal microbiota, systemic inflammation, and plasma bile acid homeostasis. For this, 1,257 individuals scheduled for colonosco...

Discovering Biomarkers for Asymptomatic Tuberculosis via Olink Proteomics and Machine Learning.

Journal of proteome research
The diagnosis of asymptomatic tuberculosis (TB) remains challenging due to an early disease stage. This study aimed to identify and validate plasma biomarkers for asymptomatic TB by integrating the Olink proteomics with multiple machine learning algo...

Reconfiguration of functional brain hierarchy in schizophrenia.

Translational psychiatry
The multidimensional nature of schizophrenia requires a comprehensive exploration of the functional and structural brain networks. While prior research has provided valuable insights into these aspects, our study goes a step further to investigate th...

Role of the rostral anterior cingulate cortex in emotion processing in Treatment Resistant Depression.

Translational psychiatry
The rostral anterior cingulate cortex (rACC) has been identified as a key region in treatment-resistant depression (TRD), potentially influencing the adaptive interplay between the default mode network and other critical neural networks. This study a...

Plasma proteome correlations with liver stiffness in pediatric cholestasis implicate epithelial to mesenchymal transition.

Hepatology communications
BACKGROUND: Pediatric cholestatic liver diseases can be characterized by rapidly progressive fibrosis. A multicenter cross-sectional analysis of vibration-controlled elastography in biliary atresia (BA), alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (A1AT), and Ala...

Metabolomic profiling and machine learning-based biomarker identification for oligoasthenozoospermia.

Metabolomics : Official journal of the Metabolomic Society
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Oligoasthenozoospermia, characterized by a low sperm count and impaired progressive motility, significantly contributes to male infertility. This study examines the metabolic disparities between individuals with oligoasth...

Lipid metabolites as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

BMC oral health
This study explores the association of lipid metabolism disruption and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC). We aim to identify specific lipid biomarkers and therapeutic targets for OSCC. We included 78 OSCC patients and 80 healthy controls, and appli...

Divergent biological pathways distinguish community-acquired pneumonia from COVID-19 despite similar plasma cytokine profiles.

Respiratory research
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary infections, ranging from mild respiratory issues to severe multiorgan failure, pose a major global health threat. The immune response in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and COVID-19 influences disease severity and outcomes, b...
