Article Synopsis
- * Mendelian randomization analysis indicated that patients with psoriasis vulgaris have a higher risk of developing IgAN, with arthropathic psoriasis also increasing this risk among Europeans.
- * Twelve significant genes involved in the relationship between psoriasis and IgAN were identified, primarily linked to immune and inflammatory responses, with potential diagnostic value, particularly for genes like CXCL9 and IL1β.
While the processing mechanisms of novel and conventional metaphors were widely investigated in previous monolingual studies, little attention has been devoted to how metaphoric utterances are processed by the bilingual brain as well as how scientific context might modulate such processes. Using event-related potentials (ERPs), this paper investigates the way in which scientific metaphors are electrophysiologically processed in Chinese (L1) and English (L2), with the aim of investigating the different mechanisms for understanding metaphorical language in first (L1) and second (L2) languages. By time-locking the N400 and later LPC time windows, the research show how meaning integration differs between L1 and L2 at different stages when comprehending figurative language.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 369 NPC patients who underwent pretreatment F-FDG PET. The predictive value of the SUVmax of the primary tumor (SUVmax-t) and regional lymph nodes (SUVmax-n) was evaluated using probability density functions.
Introduction: To identify the subset of patients with de novo nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) for whom [F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography (F-FDG PET/CT) should be recommended, and to determine whether PET/CT is a cost-effective decision for precise M staging in endemic areas.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective analysis of data of 4469 patients diagnosed with de novo NPC between January 2014 and December 2019. The detection rate of distant metastasis was compared between different groups.
