Objective: We aimed to investigate the significance of autophagy proteins and their association with clinical data on pregnancy loss in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), while also constructing predictive models.

Methods: This study was a secondary analysis. we collected endometrial samples from 33 patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and 7 patients with successful pregnancy control women at the Reproductive Center of the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University between September 2019 and September 2020. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was employed to identify expressed proteins in the endometrium of 40 patients. R was use to identify differential expression proteins(DEPs). Subsequently, Metascape was utilized for Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses. Multivariate Cox analysis was performed to analyze autophagy proteins associated with reproductive outcomes, while logistic regression was used for analyzing clinical data. Linear correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between autophagy proteins and clinical data. We established prognostic models and constructed the nomograms based on proteome data and clinical data respectively. The performance of the prognostic model was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and decision curve analysis (DCA).

Results: A total of 5331 proteins were identified, with 450 proteins exhibiting significant differential expression between the PCOS and control groups. A prognostic model for autophagy protein was developed based on three autophagy proteins (ARSA, ITGB1, and GABARAPL2). Additionally, another prognostic model for clinical data was established using insulin, TSH, TPOAB, and VD3. Our findings revealed a significant positive correlation between insulin and ARSA (R = 0.49), as well as ITGB1 (R = 0.3). Conversely, TSH exhibited a negative correlation with both ARSA (-0.33) and ITGB1 (R = -0.26).

Conclusion: Our research could effectively predict the occurrence of pregnancy loss in PCOS patients and provide a basis for subsequent research.

National early warning score 2 plus non-invasive capnography and perfusion index to estimate poor outcomes in emergency departments.

January 2025

Faculty of Medicine, Universidad de Valladolid, Valladolid, Spain; Emergency Department, Hospital Clínico Universitario, Gerencia Regional de Salud de Castilla y León, Valladolid, Spain.

Background: The study of the inclusion of new variables in already existing early warning scores is a growing field. The aim of this work was to determine how capnometry measurements, in the form of end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) and the perfusion index (PI), could improve the National Early Warning Score (NEWS2).

Methods: A secondary, prospective, multicenter, cohort study was undertaken in adult patients with unselected acute diseases who needed continuous monitoring in the emergency department (ED), involving two tertiary hospitals in Spain from October 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a significant predictor of the early progression of Alzheimer's disease, and it can be used as an important indicator of disease progression. However, many existing methods focus mainly on the image itself when processing brain imaging data, ignoring other non-imaging data (e.g.

Chronic pain is a pervasive and debilitating condition with increasing implications for public health, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Despite its high prevalence, the underlying neural mechanisms and pathophysiology remain only partly understood. Since its introduction 35 years ago, brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate changes in white matter microstructure and connectivity associated with chronic pain.

This study presents the construction of a comprehensive spatiotemporal atlas of white matter tracts in the fetal brain for every gestational week between 23 and 36 wk using diffusion MRI (dMRI). Our research leverages data collected from fetal MRI scans, capturing the dynamic changes in the brain's architecture and microstructure during this critical period. The atlas includes 60 distinct white matter tracts, including commissural, projection, and association fibers.
