PAXIP1 is regulated by NRF1 and is a prognosis‑related biomarker in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by a poor prognosis globally. PAX-interacting protein 1 (PAXIP1) serves a key role in the development of numerous human cancer types. Nevertheless, its specific involvement in HCC remains poorly understood.

Association between renal mean perfusion pressure and prognosis in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury: insights from the MIMIC IV database.

Objective: To investigate the association between renal mean perfusion pressure (MPP) and prognosis in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI).

Methods: Data were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM) was applied to identify dynamic MPP patterns, while restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves were utilized to confirm the non-linear relationship between MPP and mortality.

The trunk segmental motion complexity and balance performance in challenging seated perturbation among individuals with spinal cord injury.

Background: Motion complexity is necessary for adapting to external changes, but little is known about trunk motion complexity during seated perturbation in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). We aimed to investigate changes following SCI in trunk segmental motion complexity across different perturbation directions and how they affect postural control ability in individuals with SCI.

Methods: A total of 17 individuals with SCI and 18 healthy controls participated in challenging sagittal-seated perturbations with hand protection.

SIX1 aggravates the progression of spinal cord injury in mice by promoting M1 polarization of microglia.

Inflammation aggravates secondary damage following spinal cord injury (SCI). M1 microglia induce inflammation and exert neurotoxic effects, whereas M2 microglia exert anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. The sine oculis homeobox (SIX) gene family consists of six members, including sine oculis homeobox homolog 1 (SIX1)-SIX6.
