Background: Although maternal triglyceride (TG) is important for fetal growth, there are few large cohort studies investigating the relationships between maternal TG during pregnancy and neonatal outcomes.
Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the associations between maternal TG during the second and third trimesters and neonatal outcomes including preterm birth (PTB), low birth weight (LBW), small for gestational age (SGA) and large for gestational age (LGA).
Methods: This was a prospective birth cohort study using data of the Japan Environment and Children's Study included data of births from 2011-2014 in Japan including 79,519 pairs. Participants were divided into tertiles according to maternal TG in the second or third trimesters. Multiple logistic regression modeling was used to examine the risks of LBW, SGA, LGA and PTB in association with maternal TG levels in the second or third trimesters RESULTS: In the second trimester, compared with reference TG group (T2), women in higher TG group (T3) and lower TG group (T1) were also at increased risk of LGA (aOR 1.20, 95% CI 1.11-1.29) and SGA (aOR 1.25, 95% CI 1.10-1.41), respectively. In the third trimester, women in T3 and T1 were at increased risk of LGA (aOR 1.27, 95% CI 1.17-1.38) and SGA (aOR 1.17, 95% CI 1.02-1.34), respectively.
Conclusion: In this study, higher maternal TG levels in the second or third trimesters were associated with risks of LGA, however, lower maternal TG levels in the second or third trimesters were conversely associated with risks of SGA.

Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary liver cancer, and its global incidence has increased in recent years. Radical surgical resection and systemic chemotherapy have traditionally been the standard treatment options. However, the complexity of cholangiocarcinoma subtypes often presents a challenge for early diagnosis.

Background: With recent advances in clinical practice, including the use of reduced-toxicity conditioning regimens and innovative approaches such as ex vivo TCRαβ/CD19 depletion of haploidentical donor stem cells or post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has emerged as a curative treatment option for a growing population of patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI). However, despite these promising developments, graft failure (GF) remains a significant concern associated with HSCT in these patients. Although a second HSCT is the only established salvage therapy for patients who experience GF, there are no uniform, standardized strategies for performing these second transplants.

Objectives: To investigate the association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and osteosarcopenia using nationally representative data.
Methods: We utilized data from 1,418 men and women aged ≥ 50 years old participating in Iranian Multicenter Osteoporosis Study (IMOS), a nation-wide, cross-sectional study conducted in 2021. Osteosarcopenia was defined based on standard criteria, considering the presence of both osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia.

Background: The genus is endemic to China and belongs to the Apiaceae family, which is widely distributed in the Himalaya-Hengduan Mountains (HHM) region. However, its morphology, phylogeny, phylogeography, taxonomy, and evolutionary history were not investigated due to insufficient sampling and lack of population sampling and plastome data. Additionally, we found that was not similar to members but resembled species in morphology, indicating that the taxonomic position of needs to be re-evaluated.

Ethanol, a bioactive compound prevalent in both social and industrial applications, is present in alcoholic beverages as well as a range of everyday products. In food, ethanol functions primarily as an additive or a by-product of fermentation, while in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, it serves as a solvent or preservative. Despite its widespread use, three critical research gaps exist in current literature.
