Background: ILCs play important roles in the brain, gut, and lungs. Researchers are attempting to establish a research framework on the brain-gut-lung axis using ILCs. However, no one has yet conducted a bibliometric analysis to summarize the findings.

This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of a novel combination biomarker, the FDP-to-potassium ratio (FPR), for poor functional outcomes in patients with aSAH.
Methods: A total of 425 consecutive patients with aSAH at a single center were retrospectively enrolled in our study.

Purpose: Using computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) methods to analyze the discharge and 6-month follow-up data of COVID-19 Delta variant survivors, evaluate and summarize the recovery and prognosis, and improve people's awareness of this disease.
Methods: This study collected clinical data, SGRQ questionnaire results, and lung CT scans (at both discharge and 6-month follow-up) from 41 COVID-19 Delta variant survivors. Two senior radiologists evaluated the CT scans before in-depth analysis.
Objective: Red blood cell (RBC) parameters are associated with outcomes following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), but their predictive value remains uncertain. This study aimed to detect the association between RBC parameters and functional outcome in aSAH patients undergoing surgical clipping.
Methods: This retrospective observational study included aSAH patients who underwent surgical clipping at Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College between August 2016 and September 2019.
Antiplatelet treatment (APT) has been reported to be used in some patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) after endovascular treatment, but there is controversy among different studies regarding its clinical effects. This study intends to conduct a meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of APT on aSAH patients after endovascular treatment. The PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched up to January 2022 for eligible English publications.

Methods: This study recruited a total of 267 patients with HCC, which were randomly divided into the training (N = 188) and validation (N = 79) cohorts. In the training cohort, radiomic features were selected with the intra-reader and inter-reader correlation coefficient (ICC), Spearman's correlation coefficient, and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO).
