The mechanism of Hespintor (a protein of serpin family) inhibitory action on the growth of inoculated hepatocellular carcinoma was studied in a model of human hepatoma in nude mice by using on long-noncoding RNA (lncRNA) sequencing. Two days after tumor transplantation, Hespintor or normal saline was injected into the caudal vein at a dose of 15 μg/kg (2 times a week over 4 weeks). The tumors were isolated in 4 weeks after subcutaneous injection of human hepatoma MHCC97-H cells.

Purpose: This study explored the clinical characteristics of patients with tinnitus who responded to sound therapy and established a predictive model to evaluate the effectiveness of this therapy according to the clinical characteristics.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 991 subjective tinnitus patients who received compound sound therapy in the Department of Otolaryngology of the local hospital from November 2019 to January 2022.

Results: We found that tinnitus patients with different therapeutic effects had significant differences in the tinnitus side ( = 0.

Background: In the treatment of depression, medication plays a crucial role. However, insufficient patient adherence to medication often results in unsatisfactory treatment outcomes, increasing both the recurrence and rehospitalization rates of depression, and consequently imposing a greater economic burden on the healthcare system.

Objectives: Our objective was to examine the impact of pharmacogenomic testing on medication adherence and antidepressant switching rates among individuals diagnosed with depression.

Article Synopsis
  • Advanced carotid atherosclerotic plaques increase the risk of ischaemic stroke, making it crucial to understand the immune cell characteristics and biomarkers linked to plaque progression.
  • Our research used single-cell RNA sequencing and advanced analysis techniques to identify a specific subcluster of monocytes that are more prevalent in advanced plaques and found effective ways to distinguish between early and advanced stages of plaque.
  • We developed a deep learning model based on gene-immune interactions that showed high accuracy in diagnosing advanced plaques, which highlights the importance of unique monocyte populations for clinical diagnostic tool development.
