Cytoreductive Surgery Combined with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Peritoneal Metastasis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Aim: This research aimed to evaluate the long-term survival rates and relapse-free status of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with peritoneal metastases who underwent cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The data are expected to provide valuable insights for determining therapeutic options for these patients.

Methods: PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, Ovid, Scopus, and ClinicalTrials.

Two new synonyms of Rhopalopsole basinigra Yang & Yang, 1995 (Plecoptera: Leuctridae) with taxonomic notes on Rhopalopsole tianmuana Sivec & Harper, 2008.

We present detailed evidence that Rhopalopsole trichotoma Yang & Du, 2021 and R. wulingensis Sivec & Shimizu, 2008, are junior synonyms of R. basinigra Yang & Yang, 1995 via a comparative morphological evaluation.

The therapeutic window of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and its correlation with clinical outcomes in Kawasaki disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The optimal therapeutic window to start intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) for Kawasaki disease (KD) is highly debatable. We aimed to summarize the existing literature to evaluate the therapeutic window of IVIG treatment and its correlation with clinical outcomes in KD patients.

Methods: We searched the databases from inception to August 26, 2022, without language restrictions.

A new species and new record of Chinoperla Zwick, 1980 (Plecoptera: Perlidae) from Yunnan Province, China.

Two species of the genus Chinoperla Zwick, 1980 are reported with color images from Yunnan Province of southwestern China, including one described as new to science: C. longispina Yan Li, sp. nov.

Mining statistically-solid k-mers for accurate NGS error correction.

Background: NGS data contains many machine-induced errors. The most advanced methods for the error correction heavily depend on the selection of solid k-mers. A solid k-mer is a k-mer frequently occurring in NGS reads.

Preparation of La-modified magnetic composite for enhanced adsorptive removal of tetracycline.

Composite adsorbents usually outperform single component adsorbents as they could combine the properties and advantages of each component. In this research, rare earth element Lanthanum was introduced into magnetic substrate by a method of chemical co-precipitation to enhance its adsorption capability. It was found that the La-modified magnetic composite with a presumed La and FeO molar ratio at 1:50 had a better adsorption performance for tetracycline than the magnetic adsorbents at other molar ratios.

Significant association between lncRNA H19 polymorphisms and cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis.

Previous epidemiological research suggests polymorphisms in long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 are associated with an increased risk of cancer, but the results are inconsistent. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to more accurately determine the association between lncRNA H19 polymorphisms and cancer risk. The PubMed, Embase, and Science Citation Index online databases were searched and 11 relevant studies involving a total of 33,209 participants were identified.

Health care professionals at risk of infection with Borna disease virus - evidence from a large hospital in China (Chongqing).

Background: Human Borna disease virus (BDV) infections have recently been reported in China. BDV causes cognitive and behavioural disturbances in animals. The impact on human mental disorders is subject to debate, but previous studies worldwide have found neuropsychiatric patients more frequently infected than healthy controls.

Meta-analysis of infectious agents and depression.

Depression is a debilitating psychiatric disorder and a growing global public health issue. However, the relationships between microbial infections and depression remains uncertain. A computerized literature search of Medline, ISI Web of Knowledge, PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Library was conducted up to May 2013, and 6362 studies were initially identified for screening.

A novel urinary metabolite signature for diagnosing major depressive disorder.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent and debilitating mental disorder. Yet, there are no objective biomarkers available to support diagnostic laboratory testing for this disease. Here, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was applied to urine metabolic profiling of 126 MDD and 134 control subjects.

Direct Blue 71 staining as a destaining-free alternative loading control method for Western blotting.

In Western blotting, a suitable loading control is indispensable for correcting errors in the total amount of loaded protein. Immunodetection of housekeeping proteins and total protein staining have traditionally been used as loading control methods. Direct Blue 71 (DB71) staining-a novel, sensitive, dye-binding staining method compatible with immunodetection-may offer advantages over these traditional loading control methods.

Borna disease virus infection perturbs energy metabolites and amino acids in cultured human oligodendroglia cells.

Background: Borna disease virus is a neurotropic, non-cytolytic virus that has been widely employed in neuroscientific research. Previous studies have revealed that metabolic perturbations are associated with Borna disease viral infection. However, the pathophysiological mechanism underlying its mode of action remains unclear.
