Objective: To observe early intervention effects of Modified Shuyu Pill (MSP) on vascular cognitive impairment no dementia (VCIND).
Methods: Totally 100 patients VCIND were randomly assigned to the treatment group (43 cases) and the control group (33 cases). On the basis of the treatment targeting risk factors of blood vessels, patients in the treatment group were treated by MSP, while those in the control group were treated by donepezil hydrochloride. The therapeutic course was 16 weeks. The neuropsychological scales [mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA) score] and Chinese medicine dementia syndromes scales were observed before and after treatment.
Results: The MMSE and MOCA score of the two groups increased when compared with the same group before treatment (P < 0.01). But there was no statistical difference in MMSE or MOCA score after treatment between the two groups (P > 0.05). The Chinese medicine dementia syndromes scales significantly decreased in the treatment group when compared with before treatment (P < 0.01). But there was no statistical difference in Chinese medicine dementia syndromes scales in the control group between before and after treatment (P > 0.05). There was statistical difference in Chinese medicine dementia syndromes scales after treatment between the two groups (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: MSP could effectively intervene the progress of VCIND.

Background: Uterine clear cell carcinoma (UCCC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of endometrial cancer, often presenting at an advanced stage with poor prognosis. Treatment options for advanced or recurrent UCCC are currently limited, especially after platinum-based chemotherapy has failed.
Case Presentation: We present the case of a 49-year-old female diagnosed with stage IV uterine clear cell carcinoma.

Background: Inflammation and immune evasion are associated with tumorigenesis and progression. The Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) has been proposed as a pre-treatment peripheral blood biomarker. This study aims to compare the relationship between SIRI, various serum biomarkers, and the prognosis of NSCLC patients before and after treatment.

Background: Poor nutritional status may affect outcomes after coronary revascularization, but the association between nutritional status and outcomes in patients undergoing coronary revascularization has not been fully evaluated. This study was based on the MIMIC-IV database to analyze the impact of baseline nutritional status on poor outcomes in patients with coronary revascularization.
Methods: Patients with coronary revascularization were screened from the MIMIC-IV database.

Decellularization is the process of obtaining acellular tissues with low immunogenic cellular components from animals or plants while maximizing the retention of the native extracellular matrix structure, mechanical integrity and bioactivity. The decellularized tissue obtained through the tissue decellularization technique retains the structure and bioactive components of its native tissue; it not only exhibits comparatively strong mechanical properties, low immunogenicity and good biocompatibility but also stimulates neovascularization at the implantation site and regulates the polarization process of recruited macrophages, thereby promoting the regeneration of damaged tissue. Consequently, many commercial products have been developed as promising therapeutic strategies for the treatment of different tissue defects and lesions, such as wounds, dura, bone and cartilage defects, nerve injuries, myocardial infarction, urethral strictures, corneal blindness and other orthopedic applications.

This study developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system using a local-global multimodal fusion graph neural network (LGMF-GNN) to address the challenge of diagnosing major depressive disorder (MDD), a complex disease influenced by social, psychological, and biological factors. Utilizing functional MRI, structural MRI, and electronic health records, the system offers an objective diagnostic method by integrating individual brain regions and population data. Tested across cohorts from China, Japan, and Russia with 1,182 healthy controls and 1,260 MDD patients from 24 institutions, it achieved a classification accuracy of 78.
