Predicting infections with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) in neurocritical care patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP): development of a novel multivariate prediction model.

Microbiology spectrum
Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is prevalent in the neuro-intensive care unit (NICU), significantly increasing susceptibility to infections with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), which result in high mortality rates and substantial healthcare ...

Potential Modulatory Roles of Gut Microbiota and Metabolites in the Associations of Macronutrient-to-Physical Activity Ratios With Dyslipidemia.

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: Lifestyle factors toward diet and physical activity (PA) may directly influence the pathophysiology of dyslipidemia. However, the associations of the specific macronutrient-to-PA ratio with dyslipidemia, and the underlying mechanisms rega...

Proteomic-based biomarker discovery reveals panels of diagnostic biomarkers for early identification of heart failure subtypes.

Journal of translational medicine
BACKGROUND: Limited access to echocardiography can delay the diagnosis of suspected heart failure (HF), which in turn postpones the initiation of optimal guideline-directed medical therapy. Although natriuretic peptides like B-type natriuretic peptid...

Tumor budding and poorly differentiated clusters as a biological continuum in colorectal cancer invasion and prognosis.

Scientific reports
Tumor budding (TB) and poorly differentiated clusters (PDCs) are features of infiltrative growth patterns and powerful independent prognostic factors in colorectal cancer (CRC), yet the underlying biological mechanisms behind their role in CRC invasi...

Direct evaluation of antiplatelet therapy in coronary artery disease by comprehensive image-based profiling of circulating platelets.

Nature communications
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death globally. Antiplatelet therapy remains crucial in preventing and treating CAD-associated thrombotic complications, but it concurrently amplifies the risk of bleeding. Unfortunately, traditiona...

Nucleic acid spheres for treating capillarisation of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells in liver fibrosis.

Nature communications
Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) lose their characteristic fenestrations and become capillarized during the progression of liver fibrosis. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation can reverse this capillarization and reduce fibrosis, but...

Predicting Immunotherapy Response in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Comparative Study of Large Language Models and Human Experts.

Journal of medical systems
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an aggressive cancer with limited biomarkers for predicting immunotherapy response. Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4, GPT-4o, and Gemini offer the potential for enhancing clinical decisi...

Exploring potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for type 2 diabetes mellitus with major depressive disorder through bioinformatics and in vivo experiments.

Scientific reports
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Major depressive disorder (MDD) act as risk factors for each other, and the comorbidity of both significantly increases the all-cause mortality rate. Therefore, studying the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes with...

DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF A PREDICTION MODEL FOR SEPTIC SHOCK-ASSOCIATED ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY: A MULTICENTER STUDY USING NOMOGRAM MODELING.

Shock (Augusta, Ga.)
Background: Septic shock-associated acute kidney injury (SS-AKI) is a severe complication with high mortality. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with AKI in patients with septic shock and establish a nomogram to predict its ...

Circulating fibroblast growth factor 21 is associated with blood pressure in the Chinese population: a community-based study.

Annals of medicine
BACKGROUND: Our research team previously found that fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21, a circulating hormone, was significantly associated with atherosclerosis in human and animal models. The relationship between FGF21 and blood pressure (BP) is rare...
