Introduction: With the increasing life expectancy of people with haemophilia, the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and thrombotic events has become a growing concern. Longitudinal studies on the incidence and risk factors of CVD in this population are limited, and optimal prevention and treatment strategies are yet to be established.
Aim: This study aimed to present the baseline data of a prospective longitudinal study focusing on a subset of Japanese patients with haemophilia, specifically investigated the incidence, risk factors and treatment modalities for CVD and thrombotic diseases in people aged 40 years in Japan over 10 years through the ADVANCE Japan study.
Methods: The ADVANCE Japan study is a prospective multicentre cohort study involving 600 adult individuals with haemophilia A/B aged 40 years in Japan. The primary endpoint was the incidence of CVD, with secondary endpoints encompassing anticoagulant use, mortality rates, and comparison with the general population.
Results: Baseline data from the 600 participants revealed that thrombotic events occurred in 13 individuals (2.2%), mostly in those with haemophilia A. Atrial fibrillation was observed in 11 participants (1.8%). Hypertension and dyslipidaemia were identified as the prevalent risk factors. Various prophylactic treatments were employed, and no severe bleeding events were observed during the study period.
Conclusion: This study provides vital baseline data for a 10-year prospective investigation of CVD and thrombotic disease risk in people with haemophilia. These findings will contribute to refining prevention and treatment approaches and improving patients' quality of life.

Background/objectives: Evidence suggests nasal airflow resistance reduces after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). However, the medium-term effects of RME on upper airway (UA) airflow characteristics when normal craniofacial development is considered are still unclear. This retrospective cohort study used computer fluid dynamics (CFD) to evaluate the medium-term changes in the UA airflow (pressure and velocity) after RME in two distinct age-based cohorts.

The PRIDE database is the largest public data repository of mass spectrometry-based proteomics data and currently stores more than 40,000 data sets covering a wide range of organisms, experimental techniques, and biological conditions. During the past few years, PRIDE has seen a significant increase in the amount of submitted data-independent acquisition (DIA) proteomics data sets. This provides an excellent opportunity for large-scale data reanalysis and reuse.

Background: Psilocybin therapy (PT) produces rapid and persistent antidepressant effects in major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the long-term effects of PT have never been compared with gold-standard treatments for MDD such as pharmacotherapy or psychotherapy alone or in combination.
Methods: This is a 6-month follow-up study of a phase 2, double-blind, randomised, controlled trial involving patients with moderate-to-severe MDD.

Background: Despite the availability of various pharmacological and behavioural interventions, alcohol-related mortality is rising. This systematic review aimed to critically evaluate the existing literature on the association between glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists use (GLP-1 RAs) and alcohol consumption.
Methods: Electronic searches were conducted on Ovid Medline, EMBASE, PsycINFO, clintrials.
