Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a prominent etiological agent of lower respiratory tract infections in children, responsible for approximately 80% of cases of pediatric bronchiolitis and 50% of cases of infant pneumonia. Despite notable progress in the diagnosis and management of pediatric RSV infection, the current biomarkers for early-stage detection remain insufficient to meet clinical needs. Therefore, the development of more effective biomarkers for early-stage pediatric respiratory syncytial virus infection (EPR) is imperative.

Objective: The early targeted and effective diagnosis and treatment of severe trauma are crucial for patients' outcomes. Blood leukocytes act as significant effectors during the initial inflammation and activation of innate immunity in trauma. This study aims to identify hub genes related to patients' prognosis in blood leukocytes at the early stages of trauma.

Vitamin B (B) deficiency causes neurological manifestations resembling multiple sclerosis (MS); however, a molecular explanation for the similarity is unknown. FTY720 (fingolimod) is a sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator and sphingosine analog approved for MS therapy that can functionally antagonize S1P. Here, we report that FTY720 suppresses neuroinflammation by functionally and physically regulating the B pathways.

A pilot analysis of the tear fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) collected by glass microcapillary was performed using various experimental methods: liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, Raman spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and atomic-force microscopy. Infrared spectroscopy found no significant difference between the tear fluid of MS patients and the control spectra; all three significant peaks were located at around the same positions. Raman analysis showed differences between the spectra of the tear fluid of MS patients and the spectra of healthy subjects, which indicated a decrease in tryptophan and phenylalanine content and changes in the relative contributions of the secondary structures of the polypeptide chains of tear proteins.
