Background: We have previously studied biomarkers of tubular health (EGF), injury (KIM-1), dysfunction (alpha-1 microglobulin), and inflammation (TNFR-1, TNFR-2, MCP-1, YKL-40, suPAR), and demonstrated that plasma KIM-1, TNFR-1, TNFR-2 and urine KIM-1, EGF, MCP-1, urine alpha-1 microglobulin are each independently associated with CKD progression in children. In this study, we used bootstrapped survival trees to identify a combination of biomarkers to predict CKD progression in children.
Methods: The CKiD Cohort Study prospectively enrolled children 6 months to 16 years old with an eGFR of 30-90 ml/min/1.
Homozygous MTAP deletion occurs in ~15% of cancers, making them vulnerable to decreases in the concentration of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). AG-270/S095033 is an oral, potent, reversible inhibitor of methionine adenosyltransferase 2 A (MAT2A), the enzyme primarily responsible for the synthesis of SAM. We report results from the first-in-human, phase 1 trial of AG-270/S095033 as monotherapy in patients with advanced malignancies (ClinicalTrials.

- The study investigates CP symmetry violation in the decay of D^{+} particles into K^{-}K^{+}π^{+} using data from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV.
- A unique model-independent method was employed to analyze the phase-space distributions of D^{+} and D^{-} particles, correcting for any instrumental biases using D_{s}^{+} decays.
- The findings indicate no significant evidence of CP violation, with a p value of 8.1%, and measure specific CP asymmetry observables, marking this study as the most sensitive search of its kind in multibody decays.
Aim: To understand the experience and care needs of older people living with vision impairment in the acute hospital setting.
Design: A qualitative study using co-productive user-based design.
Methods: Seven older people living with vision impairment and six healthcare students collaborated in a series of six researcher facilitated co-productive workshops.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined how playing multiple seasons of rugby affects serum S100B levels in male professional players and the acute impact of concussion on these levels.
- Researchers collected blood samples during different seasons of play and after concussions to measure S100B concentrations using an ELISA assay.
- The results showed that while S100B levels remained stable across seasons, they significantly increased immediately after concussions, but returned to pre-season levels by the end of the season, suggesting S100B could be a valuable tool in managing sports-related concussions.
