Purpose: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is affecting 1-4% of women who conceive approximately, and no cause could be found in more than 50% of women suffering from RPL. Inherited thrombophilias have got increasing attention in women with unexplained RPL, so we aim to explore the relationship among these most common thrombophilic polymorphisms and RPL through a literature review and meta-analysis.
Methods: Observational studies from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science from 1997 to 7 April 2022 were searched. For each genetic variant, a fixed or random-effect model was used according to the heterogeneity test to calculate pooled ORs and 95% CIs for both dominant and recessive genetic models. Egger's line regression test was used to assess publication bias. The quality of the included articles was assessed by the Newcastle Ottawa scale.
Results: A total of 124 articles comprising 17,278 RPL patients and 16,021 controls were included. Results showed that hyperhomocysteinemia (MTHFR) C677T (dominant model: OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.25-1.64; recessive model: OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.36-1.87), MTHFR A1298C (dominant model: OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.26-2.18; recessive model: OR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.42-2.26), PAI-1 4G/5G (dominant model: OR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.36-2.06; recessive model: OR, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.39-2.32), angiotensin-converting enzyme I/D (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.00-1.53), Factor XIII V34L (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.02-1.87), and β-fibrinogen-455G/A (OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.02-2.51) were significantly associated with RPL.
Conclusion: This study provides potentially useful clinical markers to evaluate the risk of RPL or to help unexplained RPL patients identify possible causes, which may allow for targeted treatment.

Time-varying changes in whole-brain connectivity patterns, or connectome state dynamics, hold significant implications for cognition. However, connectome dynamics at fast (>1 Hz) timescales highly relevant to cognition are poorly understood due to the dominance of inherently slow fMRI in connectome studies. Here, we investigated the behavioral significance of rapid electrophysiological connectome dynamics using source-localized EEG connectomes during resting state ( = 926, 473 females).

We generated asynchronous functional networks (aFNs) using a novel method called optimal causation entropy and compared aFN topology with the correlation-based synchronous functional networks (sFNs), which are commonly used in network neuroscience studies. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time series from 212 participants of the National Consortium on Alcohol and Neurodevelopment in Adolescence study were used to generate aFNs and sFNs. As a demonstration of how aFNs and sFNs can be used in tandem, we used multivariate mixed effects models to determine whether age interacted with node efficiency to influence connection probabilities in the two networks.

The atypical static brain functions related to the executive control network (ECN), default mode network (DMN), and salience network (SN) in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been widely reported. However, their transient functions in ASD are not clear. We aim to identify transient network states (TNSs) using coactivation pattern (CAP) analysis to characterize the age-related atypical transient functions in ASD.

Bioactive ceramics have been used in bone tissue repair and regeneration. However, because of the complex in vivo osteogenesis process, long cycle, and difficulty of accurately tracking, the mechanism of interaction between materials and cells has yet to be fully understood, hindering its development. The ceramic microbridge microfluidic chip system may solve the problem and provide an in vitro method to simulate the microenvironment in vivo.

Introduction: In order to enhance the quality of cigar tobacco leaves (CTLs), a gradient variable temperature fermentation approach was employed.
Methods: The temperature gradient demonstrated a gradual increase from low temperature (35 ± 2°C) to moderate temperature (45 ± 2°C), and then to high temperature (55 ± 2°C). Each temperature gradient underwent a 10-day fermentation process, resulting in a total duration of 30 days.
