The purpose of this study was to analyze the mechanism by which irisin affects β-cell pyroptosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The in vivo T2DM model was established by raised with high-fat diet and intraperitoneally injection of streptozocin. Min6 cells were divided into four groups: negative control (NC), high glucose (HG), HG + irisin, and HG + irisin+3-MA.

Methods: In vitro, Min6 cells were treated with high glucose (HG) to generate T2DM cell models.
Objectives: A decline in language function is a common complication after glioma surgery, affecting patients' quality of life and survival. This study predicts the postoperative decline in language function and whether it can be recovered based on the preoperative white matter structural network.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-one right-handed patients with glioma involving the left hemisphere were retrospectively included.
Introduction: Irisin is closely related to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and other metabolic diseases. It can improve the homeostasis of T2DM. MiR-133a-3p is decreased in the peripheral blood of patients with T2DM.

Methods: Patients with GILAs were retrospectively collected in our center between January 2009 and December 2020. Clinical variables (age, sex, aphasia quotient [AQ], seizures and KPS), tumor-related variables (recurrent tumor or not, volume, language cortices invaded or not, shortest distance to language areas [SDLA], supplementary motor area or premotor area [SMA/PMA] involved or not and WHO grade) and intraoperative multimodal techniques (used or not) were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis to identify their association with temporary or permanent language deficits (TLD/PLD).
Diffuse and multi-lobes involved glioma (DMG) is a rare disease, and the aim of this study was to assess the role of multimodal-assisted surgical resection of tumours combined with chemoradiotherapy and identify prognosis. Clinical data were collected from 38 patients with a diagnosis of DMG. Nineteen patients received multimodal-assisted surgical resection of tumours combined with chemoradiotherapy, and another 19 patients underwent chemoradiotherapy alone after stereotactic puncture biopsy.

Purpose: To compare the multimodal techniques (including neuronavigation, intraoperative MRI [iMRI], and neuromonitoring [IONM]) and conventional approach (only guided by neuronavigation) in removing glioblastoma (GBM) with corpus callosum (CC) involvement (ccGBM), their effectiveness and safety were analyzed and compared.
Methods: Electronic medical records were retrospectively reviewed for ccGBM cases treated in our hospital between January 2016 and July 2020. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, clinical outcomes, extent of resection (EOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were obtained and compared between the multimodal group (used multimodal techniques) and the conventional group (only used neuronavigation).
To explore molecular alterations and their correlation with the survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM) with corpus callosum (CC) involvement (ccGBM). Electronic medical records were reviewed for glioma patients tested for molecular alterations and treated at our hospital between January 2016 and July 2020. ccGBM was compared to GBM without CC involvement (non-ccGBM) to identify differences in molecular alterations.

Previous reports have demonstrated that levels and activities of PRMT1 can vary in animals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to assess the expression and mechanism of action of PRMT1 during glucose toxicity-induced β cell dysfunction.
