Electroacupuncture effects on trigeminal neuralgia with comorbid anxiety and depression: The role of frequency and acupoint specificity.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at specific acupoints (DU20 and ST36) and different frequencies (2 and 100 Hz) on brain regions associated with trigeminal neuralgia, anxiety, and depression. Chronic trigeminal neuralgia was induced by the chronic constriction of the infraorbital nerve (CION). Anxiety and depression were assessed through behavioral tests.

Origins and conservation of topological polarization defects in resonant photonic-crystal diffraction.

We present a continuative definition of topological charge to depict the polarization defects on any resonant diffraction orders in photonic crystal slab regardless they are radiative or evanescent. By using such a generalized definition, we investigate the origins and conservation of polarization defects across the whole Brillouin zone. We found that the mode crossings due to Brillouin zone folding contribute to the emergence of polarization defects in the entire Brillouin zone.

Meta-analysis of the clinicopathologic features of endometrial cancer molecular staging.

Objective: The 2013 TCGA identified four molecular subgroups of endometrial cancer; however, the data results for most of the pathological features were varied and of low value for clinical application. Therefore, a meta-analysis of articles related to the clinicopathological features of molecular typing was performed to observe how the prevalence of the four subgroups varied across different pathological features and whether they were associated with certain specific pathological features and to understand how molecular typing may influence current pathological assessments.

Bacterium-Phage Symbiosis Facilitates the Enrichment of Bacterial Pathogens and Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in the Plastisphere.

The plastisphere, defined as the ecological niche for microbial colonization of plastic debris, has been recognized as a hotspot of pathogenic and antibiotic-resistant bacteria. However, the interactions between bacteria and phages facilitated by the plastisphere, as well as their impact on microbial risks to public health, remain unclear. Here, we analyzed public metagenomic data from 180 plastisphere and environmental samples, stemming from four different habitats and two plastic types (biodegradable and nonbiodegradable plastics) and obtained 611 nonredundant metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and 4061 nonredundant phage contigs.

Prognostic risk factors of pneumonia associated with COVID-19 in patients with lymphoma.

Advances in nanoparticle-based radiotherapy for cancer treatment.

Radiotherapy has long been recognized as an effective conventional approach in both clinical and scientific research, primarily through mechanisms involving DNA destruction or the generation of reactive oxygen species to target tumors. However, significant challenges persist, including the unavoidable damage to normal tissues and the development of radiation resistance. As a result, nanotechnology-based radiotherapy has garnered considerable attention for its potential to enhance precision in irradiation, improve radiosensitization, and achieve therapeutic advancements.

Spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy: A case report from China with new variants.

We report a case of a Chinese girl who presented with multiple seizure types of epilepsy, followed by motor and intellectual regression, vision impairment, and cerebral and cerebellar atrophy.

Crossing the streams: Improving data quality and integration across the One Health genomics continuum with data standards and implementation strategies.

The Canadian Genomics Research and Development Initiative for Antimicrobial Resistance (GRDI-AMR) uses a genomics-based approach to understand how health care, food production and the environment contribute to the development of antimicrobial resistance. Integrating genomics contextual data streams across the One Health continuum is challenging because of the diversity in data scope, content and structure.

Enhancing open-circuit voltage in FAPbI perovskite solar cells self-formation of coherent buried interface FAPbICl.

The interfaces between the perovskite and charge-transporting layers typically exhibit high defect concentrations, which are the primary cause of open-circuit voltage loss. Passivating the interface between the perovskite and electron-transporting layer is particularly challenging due to the dissolution of surface treatment agents during the perovskite coating. In this study, a coherent FAPbICl buried interface was simultaneously formed during the preparation of FAPbI.

Background: Autonomic innervation of the heart plays a pivotal role not only in regulating the heart rate but also in modulating the cardiac cell microenvironment via cell-cell interactions and influencing the heart's repair capabilities. Currently, the primary clinical approach for treating myocardial infarction (MI) is percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the myocardial salvage rate remains low for patients with advanced disease.

Tunable ion-release biodegradable nanoparticles enhanced pyroptosis for tumor immunotherapy.

Pyroptosis is an effective strategy for inducing inflammatory responses in 'cold' tumors, boosting the efficacy of immunotherapy. Although biodegradable inorganic nanoparticles (BINPs) show great potential in pyroptosis by releasing ions to break intracellular homeostasis, the limited intracellular ion release efficiency restricts pyroptosis level and subsequent immune activation. Herein, by heterovalent substitution strategy, a series of NaZrF:x%Yb (NZF:x%Yb, x = 0, 9, and 18) BINPs with tunable intracellular ion release efficiency are synthesized for enhanced pyroptosis and tumor immunotherapy.
