Percutaneous cholecystostomy in elderly patients with acute cholecystitis: Factors influencing mortality, morbidity, and length of hospital stay.

Background: Acute cholecystitis (AC) is increasingly common and imposes a burden on healthcare systems, particularly in the elderly population. While laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the definitive treatment, percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is often preferred based on various factors. The treatment of elderly patients requires a multidisciplinary approach that carefully assesses surgical risks due to age-related changes and comorbidities.

Same-Slide Spatial Multi-Omics Integration Reveals Tumor Virus-Linked Spatial Reorganization of the Tumor Microenvironment.

The advent of spatial transcriptomics and spatial proteomics have enabled profound insights into tissue organization to provide systems-level understanding of diseases. Both technologies currently remain largely independent, and emerging same slide spatial multi-omics approaches are generally limited in plex, spatial resolution, and analytical approaches. We introduce IN-situ DEtailed Phenotyping To High-resolution transcriptomics (IN-DEPTH), a streamlined and resource-effective approach compatible with various spatial platforms.

The First Case of Autosomal Recessive Cerebellar Ataxia with Prominent Paroxysmal Non-kinesigenic Dyskinesia Caused by a Truncating FGF14 Variant in a Turkish Patient.

Background: ATX-FGF/SCA27A has been exclusively associated with heterozygous variants in the FGF14 gene, presenting with postural tremor, slowly progressive cerebellar ataxia, and psychiatric and behavioral disturbances.

Objectives: This study describes the first case of ATX-FGF/SCA27A linked to a biallelic frameshift variant in the FGF14 gene.

Methods: Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was conducted using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform, and the identified variant was confirmed using Sanger sequencing.

Evolution of cooperation in multichannel games on multiplex networks.

Humans navigate diverse social relationships and concurrently interact across multiple social contexts. An individual's behavior in one context can influence behavior in other contexts. Different payoffs associated with interactions in the different domains have motivated recent studies of the evolution of cooperation through the analysis of multichannel games where each individual is simultaneously engaged in multiple repeated games.
