Published: February 2010

The molecular epidemiology of CVA16 in China between 1999 and 2008 reflects a pattern of endemic cocirculation of clusters B1a and B1b within subgenotype B1 viruses. The annual evolution rate of CVA16 was estimated as approximately 0.91 x 10(-2) substitutions per synonymous nucleotide/year and is slightly lower than that of HEV71.

Purpose: Deciding whether to provide preventive treatment to contacts of individuals with multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis is complex.

Methods: We present the diagnostic pathways, clinical course and outcome of tuberculosis treatment in eight siblings from a single family. Tuberculosis disease was diagnosed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture and molecular detection of M.

National Clinical Research Center for Digestive Disease, State Key Lab of Digestive Health, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

Background: Our previous research demonstrated that growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) exhibited superior predictive capability for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) development with an AUC of 0.86 at 10 years before disease diagnosis. However, the specific pathways and molecular mechanisms associated with GDF15 expression during MASH development remain to be fully investigated in humans.

Safety profiles of fondaparinux in pregnant women: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Eur J Clin Pharmacol

January 2025

Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 20, Renmin South Road, Section 3, Chengdu, 610041, Sichuan Province, China.

Background: The prevalence of conditions necessitating anticoagulation therapy among pregnant women has been steadily increasing. Although low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) is commonly used, several studies have investigated the use of fondaparinux in pregnant women. However, the safety profile of fondaparinux in this population remains to be fully elucidated.

Fibroblast activation protein peptide-targeted NIR-I/II fluorescence imaging for stable and functional detection of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

January 2025

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery and Liver Transplantation Center, The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University, 52 Mei Hua East Road, Zhuhai, 519000, China.

Purpose: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the primary stromal component of the tumor microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), affecting tumor progression and post-resection recurrence. Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a key biomarker of CAFs. However, there is limited evidence on using FAP as a target in near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging for HCC.

Improved Annotation of Asthma Gene Variants with Cell Type Deconvolution of Nasal and Lung Expression-Quantitative Trait Loci.

Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol

University of Groningen, University Medical Center Groningen, Department of Pulmonology and Pediatric Allergy, Beatrix Children's Hospital, Groningen, Netherlands.

Asthma is a genetically complex inflammatory airway disease associated with over 200 Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, the functional effects of many asthma-associated SNPs in lung and airway epithelial samples are unknown. Here, we aimed to conduct expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis using a meta-analysis of nasal and lung samples.
