Utilizing the renal and vertebral contours as landmarks for right adrenal vein localization in primary aldosteronism: a retrospective analysis of 310 cases.

Background: Adrenal Vein Sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for categorizing primary aldosteronism (PA). However, catheterization of the right adrenal vein (RAV) can be technically challenging. This study aimed to investigate the validity of the right renal vertebral contour as fluoroscopic landmarks to help RAV orifice localization during AVS.

Mapping the intellectual structure and emerging trends on nanomaterials in colorectal cancer: a bibliometric analysis from 2003 to 2024.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of thes most prevalent malignant tumors worldwide. Current therapeutic strategies for CRC have limitations, while nanomaterials show significant potential for diagnosing and treating CRC. This study utilizes bibliometric analysis to evaluate the current status and trends in this field.

Hyaluronan-decorated CuO-doxorubicin nanodot clusters for targetedly sensitizing cuproptosis in breast cancer via a three-pronged strategy.

Cuproptosis shows great prospects in cancer treatments. However, insufficient intracellular copper amount, low-level redox homeostasis, and hypoxic tumor microenvironment severely restrict cuproptosis efficacy. Herein, hydrazided hyaluronan-templated decorated CuO-doxorubicin (CuDT) nanodot clusters (NCs) are developed for efficient doxorubicin (DOX)-sensitized cuproptosis therapy in breast cancer via a three-pronged strategy.

A data-driven framework to identify influencing factors for soil heavy metal contaminations using random forest and bivariate local Moran's I: A case study.

The efficacy of traceability analysis is often limited by a lack of information on influencing factors for heavy metal (HM) contaminations in soil, such as spatial correlations between HM concentrations and influencing factors. To overcome this limitation, a novel data-driven framework was established to identify influencing factors for soil HM concentrations in an industrialised study area, in Guangdong Province, China, mainly using random forest (RF) and bivariate local Moran's I (BLMI) on the basis of the 577 soil samples and the 18 environmental covariates. The quantitative contributions of the 18 influencing factors for the Cd, As, Pb, and Cr concentrations were determined by the optimised RF.

GsMTx-4 combined with exercise improves skeletal muscle structure and motor function in rats with spinal cord injury.

Motor dysfunction and muscle atrophy are typical symptoms of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Exercise training is a conventional physical therapy after SCI, but exercise intervention alone may have limited efficacy in reducing secondary injury and promoting nerve regeneration and functional remodeling. Our previous research found that intramedullary pressure after SCI is one of the key factors affecting functional prognosis.
