This paper explores the potential of mitochondrial-associated programmed-cell-death (mtPCD) patterns as biomarkers for predicting the prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is the most common type of lung cancer, accounting for 85% of all cases, and despite advances in treatment, prognosis remains poor for many patients. The study investigates various mtPCD-related genes and their association with patient outcomes, aiming to identify a prognostic signature that can guide personalized treatment.
This paper explores the clinical outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for patients with triple-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a condition marked by mutations in DNMT3A, NPM1, and FLT3-ITD genes. Despite being classified as intermediate-risk by the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2022 risk classification, triple-mutated AML generally has a poor prognosis.
This study explores the relationship between gallstones, cholecystectomy, and cancer risk through both observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) methods. The research aims to clarify the inconsistent findings from previous studies regarding the association of gallstones and cholecystectomy with various types of cancers, particularly in Chinese adults.
Dynamic interpersonal therapy (DIT) is a short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy that has been shown to effectively reduce depressive symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). In DIT, the depressive symptoms are formulated as responses to impaired mentalisation. DIT aims to alleviate depressive symptoms by improving mentalising.
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social communication and development. A key characteristic in its clinical diagnosis is that autistic children rarely look at others’ faces, which is internationally recognized as a significant behavioral marker. Now, however, a new study aims to challenge this idea by using a combination of child-friendly testing environments and artificial intelligence to better understand the relationship between eye contact, cognitive development, and children’s attention skills.
This cross-sectional study, spanning from December 2020 to December 2021, delves into the prevalence and risk factors of carotid artery stenosis and plaque across China. Involving 194,878 adults aged 40 and above from 31 provinces, the research leverages data from the China Stroke High-risk Population Screening and Intervention Program (CSHPSIP), adhering to the STROBE reporting guideline. The study's objective is to address the knowledge gap regarding these conditions' prevalence and associated risk factors, which previous studies have inconsistently reported.
Computer scientists developed E2URec, an efficient unlearning method for LLM-based recommenders. It uses a lightweight module and dual teachers to forget specific data while maintaining performance, which innovates privacy handling in recommendation systems.
