Large-scale gene-environment interaction (GxE) discovery efforts often involve analytical compromises for the sake of data harmonization and statistical power. Refinement of exposures, covariates, outcomes, and population subsets may be helpful to establish often-elusive replication and evaluate potential clinical utility. Here, we used additional datasets, an expanded set of statistical models, and interrogation of lipoprotein metabolism via nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based lipoprotein subfractions to refine a previously discovered GxE modifying the relationship between physical activity (PA) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C).

The prevalence of childhood obesity is rising globally, with some obese children progressing to develop metabolic syndrome (MS). However, the specific differences between these groups remain unclear. To investigate the differences in gut microbiota, we conducted physiological and biochemical assessments, alongside 16S rRNA sequencing, in a cohort of 32 children from Southeastern China, which included 4 normal-weight children, 5 with mild obesity, 9 with moderate obesity, 9 with severe obesity, and 5 with metabolic syndrome.

Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a rare Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) variant. The global incidence of GBS is approximately one to two in 100,000 children (aged 0 to 15 years) per year. Miller Fisher syndrome represents a further small subset, with the incidence being one to two in 1,000,000 children.

Background: Globally, a substantial portion of the population lives with significant disabilities. Despite advancements, individuals with disabilities continue to experience poorer health outcomes, often due to inadequate knowledge and attitudes among healthcare providers. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of healthcare professionals regarding disabilities in a tertiary care setting.

Background: The increasing prevalence of primary hypertension among children and adolescents is a global health concern, with inadequate sleep duration identified as a significant risk factor. This study investigates the impact of weekday-weekend sleep duration gap (WWSDG) on hypertension among American adolescents.
Methods: Using data from the NHANES 2017-2020 cohort, we analyzed sleep patterns and hypertension prevalence among 430 adolescents.
