Purpose Of Review: Mechanosensitive Piezo channels are ion channels activated by mechanical stimuli, playing a crucial role in mechanotransduction processes and mechanical hypersensitivity. When these channels are subjected to mechanical loading, membrane currents rise instantaneously, depolarizing and activating voltage-gated calcium channels. This results in an increase in intracellular Ca, which contributes to heightened sensitivity to mechanical stimuli.

This study aims to examine the trends and developments in OLV research from 1982 to 2024 through bibliometric analysis.
Methods: The literature on OLV was systematically searched in the Web of Science Core Collection database for this study.
Background: Neurodegenerative diseases are progressive disorders that severely diminish the quality of life of patients. However, research on neurodegenerative diseases needs to be refined and deepened. Single-cell polyomics is a technique for obtaining transcriptomic, proteomic, and other information from a single cell.

This phenomenon is widely observed across various organisms and stressors, significantly advancing our understanding and inspiring further exploration of the beneficial effects of toxins at doses both below and beyond traditional thresholds. This has profound implications for promoting biological regulation at the cellular level and enhancing adaptability throughout the biosphere.

This study assessed the evolution of clustering of knowledge structures and identified hot trends and emerging topics. Articles and reviews related to ERAS were retrieved through subject search from the Web of Science Core Collection.

The procedure is commonly utilized in multiple fields, including neurobiology, immunology, and microbiology, and has emerged as a key focus of life science research. However, a thorough and impartial analysis of the existing state and trends of SCS-related research is lacking.

Pinaverium bromide (PVB) has been shown to protect mice against sepsis, which is predominantly attributed to PVB-mediated anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting primed neutrophils to produce proinflammatory cytokines. However, the underlying mechanism(s) by which PVB affects neutrophils remains unknown. In this study, we report that treatment with PVB either before or after LPS stimulation attenuated IL-1β and TNF-α expression at both mRNA and protein levels in LPS-activated murine neutrophils.

Previous studies have investigated that Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) is closely related to astrocyte activation after central nervous system injury. However, the role of Rac1 in astrocyte activation in chronic inflammatory pain has not been reported.

Therefore, more and more attention has been paid for biomarker identification for early diagnosis, prognosis prediction and prognosis evaluation of melanoma. However, there is still a lack of a report that comprehensively and objectively evaluates the research status of melanoma biomarkers.

Heat stroke (HS) resembles sepsis in many aspects; however, it is unclear whether EGCX injury is involved in its pathophysiology. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the damage of EGCX and the development of coagulation disorders during HS.

Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), one pattern recognition receptor activated by viral and endogenous RNA, has been recently reported to regulate ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in various organs. However, the role of TLR3 in the development of intestinal I/R injury remains unclear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of extracellular RNAs/TLR3 signaling in intestinal I/R injury.

Based on the publications in Web of Science Core Collection(WoSCC) from 2004 to 2022, this study conducted a bibliometric analysis of this field, aiming to understand its development trend and frontier, and provide basic information and potential points for in-depth exploration of this field.
Methods: All articles on gastrointestinal flora and metabolism published from 2004 to 2022 were collected and identified in WoCSS.
Background: IL-33 has been studied widely but its comprehensive and systematic bibliometric analysis is yet available. The present study is to summarize the research progress of IL-33 through bibliometric analysis.
Methods: The publications related to IL-33 were identified and selected from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database on 7 December 2022.
Background: Post-laparoscopic shoulder pain (PLSP) is a common complication following laparoscopic surgeries. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate whether pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) was beneficial to alleviated shoulder pain after laparoscopic procedures.
Methods: We reviewed existing literature in the electronic database from the date of inception to January 31, 2022.

Background: Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are specialized structures formed by neutrophils that were initially found to be important in killing pathogenic bacteria during infection. With the development of related research, the relationship between NETs and diseases such as sepsis, cancer, and systemic lupus erythematosus has received close attention. However, there is a lack of reports that comprehensively and objectively present the current status of NETs-related studies.
