Background And Objective: Inferring large-scale brain networks from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides more detailed and richer connectivity information, which is critical for gaining insight into brain structure and function and for predicting clinical phenotypes. However, as the number of network nodes increases, most existing methods suffer from the following limitations: (1) Traditional shallow models often struggle to estimate large-scale brain networks. (2) Existing deep graph structure learning models rely on downstream tasks and labels.

While qualitative research serves a distinct purpose and differs from quantitative research, both can be approached with diligence, with careful techniques that are similarly maintained and respected. In advance of this installment in the Evidence-Based Medicine in Otolaryngology series, we presented a comparison between qualitative and quantitative methods.

Pharmacological Management of IgG4-Related Disease: From Traditional to Mechanism-Based Targeted Therapies.

Drugs Aging

January 2025

Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Keio University School of Medicine, 35 Shinanomachi, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, 160-8582, Japan.

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated disorder characterized by organ enlargement and dysfunction. The formation of tertiary lymphoid tissues (TLTs) in affected organs is crucial for understanding IgG4-RD, as T follicular helper (Tfh) 2 cells within TLTs drive IgG4+B cell differentiation, contributing to mass formation. Key cytokines IL-4 and IL-10, produced by Tfh2 cells, are essential for this process.

Circular RNAs in cancer: roles, mechanisms, and therapeutic potential across colorectal, gastric, liver, and lung carcinomas.

Discov Oncol

January 2025

Department of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Banasthali Vidyapith, Niwai-Tonk, Rajasthan, 304022, India.

The prominence of circular RNAs (circRNAs) has surged in cancer research due to their distinctive properties and impact on cancer development. This review delves into the role of circRNAs in four key cancer types: colorectal cancer (CRC), gastric cancer (GC), liver cancer (HCC), and lung cancer (LUAD). The focus lies on their potential as cancer biomarkers and drug targets.
