Extracellular matrix stiffness regulates colorectal cancer progression via HSF4.
J Exp Clin Cancer Res
January 2025
Department of General Surgery, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, 410008, China.
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has high incidence and mortality rates, with severe prognoses during invasion and metastasis stages. Despite advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, the impact of the tumour microenvironment, particularly extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness, on CRC progression and metastasis is not fully understood.
Methods: This study included 107 CRC patients.
AI-based analysis of fetal growth restriction in a prospective obstetric cohort quantifies compound risks for perinatal morbidity and mortality and identifies previously unrecognized high risk clinical scenarios.

Background: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a leading risk factor for stillbirth, yet the diagnosis of FGR confers considerable prognostic uncertainty, as most infants with FGR do not experience any morbidity. Our objective was to use data from a large, deeply phenotyped observational obstetric cohort to develop a probabilistic graphical model (PGM), a type of "explainable artificial intelligence (AI)", as a potential framework to better understand how interrelated variables contribute to perinatal morbidity risk in FGR.
Methods: Using data from 9,558 pregnancies delivered at ≥ 20 weeks with available outcome data, we derived and validated a PGM using randomly selected sub-cohorts of 80% (n = 7645) and 20% (n = 1,912), respectively, to discriminate cases of FGR resulting in composite perinatal morbidity from those that did not.
A prospective observational multicenter cohort study of maternal serum sFlt-1 and PlGF concentration in prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes in small for gestational age newborns delivered ≥34 weeks of gestation.
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med
December 2025
Department of Obstetrics, Perinatology and Neonatology, Center of Postgraduate Medical Education, Warsaw, Poland.
Introduction: Small-for-gestational age (SGA) newborns are at increased risk of adverse neonatal outcomes and the risk is related to the etiology of growth restriction: highest in placental insufficiency, lowest in constitutional SGA. The aim of this study was to investigate if placental growth factor (PlGF), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1) or sFlt-1/PlGF ratio are efficient in prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes in SGA newborns delivered ≥34 weeks of gestation.
Methods: A prospective observational multicenter cohort study was performed.
Intimate Partner Violence and Women's Dietary Diversity: A Population-Based Investigation in Eight Low- and Middle-Income Countries.
J Nutr
January 2025
Institute for Medical Information Processing, Biometry, and Epidemiology, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany.
Background: Intimate partner violence (IPV) poses a significant threat to the well-being of women and girls and is a highly prevalent form of gender-based violence. Evidence regarding the nutritional implications of IPV has focused primarily on intergenerational relationships with child nutrition and growth. There remains a knowledge gap regarding the association with women's own dietary intake.

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is distributed across various human tissues and plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism. Recent investigations have uncovered an additional facet of APOE's functionality, revealing its role in host defense against bacterial infections. To assess the antibacterial attributes of APOE3 and APOE4, we conducted antibacterial assays using P.
