DNAJC12 downregulation induces neuroblastoma progression via increased histone H4K5 lactylation.

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children. Despite treatment advances, the survival rates of high-risk NB patients remain low. This highlights the urgent need for a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving NB progression to support the development of new therapeutic strategies.

A bibliometric perspective on the occurrence and migration of microplastics in soils amended with sewage sludge.

The land application of sewage sludge from wastewater treatment plants has been recognized as a major source of microplastic contamination in soil. Nevertheless, the fate and behavior of microplastics in soil remain uncertain, particularly their distribution and transport, which are poorly understood. This study does a bibliometric analysis and visualization of relevant research publications using the CiteSpace software.

Association between obstructive sleep apnea and thyroid function: A 10-year retrospective study.

Purpose: To explore whether the obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has an impact on thyroid function in patients.

Method: The data of 853 patients were retrospectively collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University in recent ten years. All the objects were divided into the control group, mild-moderate and severe OSA groups according to the result of polysomnography.

Association between omentin and obstructive sleep apnea: A meta-analysis.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can lead to multisystem and multiorgan damage, which has attracted widespread attention from scholars. The pathogenesis of OSA is complex, and obesity plays an important role. Adipokine is secreted by adipose tissue, and its abnormal expression may be closely related to OSA.

[The application of waterless empirical taste test（WETT） in 159 Chinese healthy subjects].

This study examined the influences of age and gender on the taste function of a sizable sample of healthy Chinese subjects using the Waterless Empirical Taste Test（WETT）, and provided scientific evidences for taste evaluation in clinic. A total of 159 subjects were tested based on strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. The 53 stimuli strips, presented on monomer cellulose pads, were designed to test 5 basic taste functions including sour, sweet, bitter, salty and umami of all subjects.
