Objective: To evaluate the associative role of depression and apolipoprotein E epsilon 4 allele (APOEε4) in subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and its progression to objective cognitive decline.

Methods: After literature search in electronic databases, studies were selected by following precise eligibility criteria. Meta-analyses were performed to examine the role of APOEε4 and depression in SCD or its progression to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the application value of magnetic resonance (MR) hydrography of the inner ear in cochlear implantation.

Methods: 146 patients were enrolled. MR hydrography and spiral CT examinations for the intracranial auditory canal were performed before surgery, and all imaging results were statistically analyzed in order to explore the application value of MR hydrography of the inner ear in cochlear implantation.

The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the correlation between serum homocysteine (Hcy) levels and the pathogenesis of cerebral infarction (CI). Relevant studies involving serum Hcy levels and the pathogenesis of CI were identified using electronic database search supplemented with manual search. The search result studies were screened in accordance with our strict inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Article Synopsis
  • This meta-analysis examined the link between genetic variations in VDR, ESR1, and ESR2 genes and the risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD) by reviewing multiple case-control studies.
  • The analysis included 14 studies, involving nearly 3,700 PD patients and over 4,600 healthy individuals, using statistical software to calculate odds ratios indicating risk levels associated with specific genetic polymorphisms.
  • Findings revealed significant associations between certain VDR, ESR1, and ESR2 polymorphisms and heightened PD risk, suggesting these genetic variations may play a role in susceptibility to the disease.
