The management of hair loss is vital in clinical dermatology due to its prevalence and impact on patients' quality of life. Quercetin is recognized for its diverse activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and immune regulation. However, its effects on human hair follicles and mechanisms remain unclear.

Foundation models, large language models (LLMs) and large vision models (LVMs), are among the most important foundations paving the way for general AI by pre-training on massive domain-specific datasets. Different from the well annotated, formatted and integrated large textual and image datasets for LLMs and LVMs, biomedical knowledge and datasets are fragmented with data scattered across publications and inconsistent databases that often use diverse nomenclature systems in the field of AI for Precision Health and Medicine (AI4PHM).

Introduction: This study investigates gender-based disparities in self-rated health among older individuals in the Chinese workforce, utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Understanding these health gaps is crucial for crafting effective health policies and interventions in light of the rapidly aging population.
Materials And Methods: Data from the 2020 CHARLS survey, comprising Chinese individuals aged 45 and above, were analyzed, focusing on older adults actively employed.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive malignancy and the most common form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that occurs worldwide. To discover risk factors and pathogenesis of DLBCL, we performed the largest GWAS of DLBCL to date in samples of East Asian ancestry, consisting of 2,888 patients with DLBCL and 12,458 controls. The meta-analysis identified three novel loci, rs2233434 on 6p21.

Our previous research has indicated that stimulator of interferon genes (STING) could orchestrate microglia polarization following middle cerebral artery occlusion. However, it remains largely unexplored whether STING balances microglial polarization by regulating autophagy in brain I/R injury.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is commonly used in the relevant fields, because it is a low-cost noninvasive technique with high temporal resolution. However, as EEG signals contain a high noise level resulting in a low signal-to-noise ratio, it makes decoding EEG-based semantic concepts for imagination and perception tasks (SCIP-EEG) challenging.

In contrast to the central role played by the structure of biomolecules, the complementary force-based view has received little attention in past studies. Here, we proposed a simple method for the force decomposition of multibody interactions and provided some techniques to analyze and visualize the general behavior of forces in proteins. It was shown that atomic forces fluctuate at a magnitude of about 3000 pN, which is huge in the context of cell biology.

It is undeniable that the use of artificial intelligence (AI) image-assisted diagnosis system in clinical treatment is a major trend in medical development. Therefore, in order to explore the value and diagnostic accuracy of the current AI system in clinical application, we aim to compare the detection and differentiation of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules between AI system and physicians, so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical application.
