When screening tests of haemostasis are abnormal, it is important to identify at which point in the coagulation cascade dysfunction may be occurring. This may assist to identify a specific deficiency/dysfunction, the type of bleeding to be anticipated, and replacement therapy if required. Unmasking of an inherited coagulopathy or the development of an acquired coagulopathy may occur in the setting of a second (febrile) illness. Differentiating between inherited and acquired coagulopathies will rely on clinicians taking a thorough personal and family bleeding history, and correlating these findings with the haemostasis screening results.

Inflammaging refers to chronic, low-grade inflammation that becomes more common with age and plays a central role in the pathophysiology of various vascular diseases. Key inflammatory mediators involved in inflammaging contribute to endothelial dysfunction and accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis. In addition, specific pathological mechanisms and the role of inflammasomes have emerged as critical drivers of immune responses within the vasculature.

The bacterial pathogen causes disease in coral species worldwide. The mechanisms of coral colonization, coral microbiome interactions, and virulence factor production are understudied. In other model species, virulence factors like biofilm formation, toxin secretion, and protease production are controlled through a density-dependent communication system called quorum sensing (QS).

Background: The landscape of co-occurring birth defects among infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) remains underexplored.
Aims: This study aims to elucidate the complex patterns of co-occurring defects in Chinese population.
Materials And Methods: We analyzed cases from the Chinese Birth Defects Monitoring Network (2007-2019) with CDH that presented along with at least one additional defect but without a syndromic diagnosis.

Due to the aging population, focusing on healthy aging has become a global priority. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and frailty, characterized by increased vulnerability to adverse stress and health events, interact synergistically in advanced age. In older adults, hip fractures are a frequent dramatic "life-transition" event.

Gouty arthritis is a common arthritic disease caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in the joints and the tissues around it. The main pathogenesis of gout is the inflammation caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals. Omics studies help us evaluate global changes in gout during recent years, but most studies used only a single omics approach to illustrate the mechanisms of gout.
