Predicting circRNA-Disease Associations through Multisource Domain-Aware Embeddings and Feature Projection Networks.

Recent studies have highlighted the significant role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in various diseases. Accurately predicting circRNA-disease associations is crucial for understanding their biological functions and disease mechanisms. This work introduces the MNDCDA method, designed to address the challenges posed by the limited number of known circRNA-disease associations and the high cost of biological experiments.

Effectiveness of bundle of His pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with heart failure combined with wide QRS complex: a meta-analysis.

Objective: To evaluate systematically the feasibility and effectiveness of His Bundle Pacing (HBP) for cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, EMbase, WOS, Cochrane Library, Medline, and SinoMed for studies published between December 2003 and December 2023. Primary clinical outcomes included implantation success, QRS wave duration, pacing threshold, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function class, and complications.

Recent Advances in Nontargeted Screening of Chemical Hazards in Foodstuffs.

The emergence of several chemical substances continues to enrich and facilitate the development of food science, but their irrational use also poses a threat to food safety and human health. Nontargeted screening (NTS) has become an important tool for rapid traceability and efficient identification of chemical hazards in food matrices. NTS in food analysis is highly integrated with sample pretreatment, instrumental analysis platforms, data acquisition and analysis, and toxicology.

Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 is associated with tumor microenvironment remodeling of bladder cancer.

Tumor microenvironment (TME) takes an essential part in the bladder cancer progression, which is associated with intercellular cross-talk between stroma cells and cancer. We aimed use bioinformatics tools to analyze tumor microenvironment remodeling in bladder cancer. CIBERSORT and ESTIMATE are bioinformatics tools based on deconvolution for calculating proportions of tumor-infiltrating immune cells and stromal components in TME.

Predictive Application Value of Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in the Resistance of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae.

Although metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology has achieved notable outcomes in pathogen detection, there remains a gap in the research regarding its application in predicting the antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria. This study aims to analyze the clinical application value of mNGS in predicting the resistance of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), as well as the relevant influencing factors, thereby providing valuable insights for clinical antimicrobial therapy. Nonduplicate isolates of bacteria collected from Liaocheng People's Hospital from April 2023 to June 2024 were selected, and CRE bacteria were screened.
