Objective: To explore causal relationship between atopic diseases (asthma and atopic dermatitis) and osteoarthritis (OA) by using mendelian randomization(MR).
Methods: Asthma and atopic dermatitis as instrumental variables were selected, searched them through IEU database, and selected the latest data with a large number of cases and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Data were collected and processed using R language, inverse varianceweighted (IVW) method was adopted as main MR Evaluation method.
Objective: To analyse and discuss the association of gender differences with the risk and incidence of poststroke aphasia (PSA) and its types, and to provide evidence-based guidance for the prevention and treatment of poststroke aphasia in clinical practice.
Data Sources: Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science were searched from January 1, 2002, to December 1, 2023.
Study Selection: Including the total number of strokes, aphasia, the number of different sexes or the number of PSA corresponding to different sex.
Background: Breathing exercises improve oxidative stress in healthy young adults and patients with diabetes, hypertension, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Furthermore, the mechanism of respiratory intervention is controversial. Therefore, in this meta-analysis, we aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of breathing exercises on oxidative stress biomarkers in humans and provide evidence for the clinical application of breathing exercises.

Background: The interparental conflict has been associated with an increased adolescents' engagement in risk-taking behaviors. However, few studies have examined the potential mediation of deviant peer affiliation and the potential moderation of school climate. Grounded in the ecological system theory, this study aimed to explore the mediating role of deviant peer affiliation and the moderating role of school climate between the association of interparental conflict and risk-taking behavior.

Inspired by ecological system theory and self-control theory, this study aimed to investigate the mediating role of self-control and the moderating role of school climate between the link between poor parental supervision and risk-taking behavior.
Methods: Four hundred and ninety-one Chinese adolescents (231 females, M = 15.
Rationale: Thyroid hormone resistance syndrome (THRS) is an inherited condition characterized by reduced responsiveness of target tissues to thyroid hormone. Due to their nonspecific symptomatic manifestations, these patients can be misdiagnosed. This study reports a pedigree with THRS caused by a mutation in the thyroid hormone receptor β (THRβ) gene.
