Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder associated with baseline respiratory impairment caused by multiple contributing etiologies. While this may be expected to increase the risk of severe COVID-19 infections in PWS patients, survey studies have suggested paradoxically low disease severity. To better characterize the course of COVID-19 infection in patients with PWS, this study analyses the outcomes of hospitalizations for COVID-19 among patients with and without PWS.

Salt tolerance is a critical trait for plant survival and productivity in saline environments. Development of salt tolerant crops is a practical strategy for addressing soil salinity issues. In this study, RNA-Seq analysis was performed using two wheat cultivars with contrasting salt tolerance (Neixiang188, tolerant and Barra, sensitive) at 6 h and 24 h after salinity treatment to determine the genetic variations reflected in the RNA expression patterns and identify key genes associated with salt tolerance.

Background: Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) exhibit extensive structural variation yet extremely low nucleotide mutation rates, phenomena that remain only partially understood. The genus Gossypium, a globally important source of cotton, offers a wealth of long-read sequencing resources to explore mitogenome and plastome variation and dynamics accompanying the evolutionary divergence of its approximately 50 diploid and allopolyploid species.
Results: Here, we assembled 19 mitogenomes from Gossypium species, representing all genome groups (diploids A through G, K, and the allopolyploids AD) based on a uniformly applied strategy.

Background: Ferroptosis was involved in the pathogenesis of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). However, the exact mechanism of IVDD associated with ferroptosis still required deeper studies.
Method: The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in rat lumbar disc tissue between the control and IVDD group treated with IL-1β were detected by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).

Background: It remains uncertain whether the utilization of methylprednisolone during surgery effectively mitigates the occurrence of adverse outcomes. To examine the association between perioperative methylprednisolone administration and postoperative pleural effusion and pneumonia in older patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study included non-small cell lung cancer patients aged 65 years or older undergoing thoracic surgery between January 2012 and December 2019 in China.
