Use of the FHTHWA Index as a Novel Approach for Predicting the Incidence of Diabetes in a Japanese Population Without Diabetes: Data Analysis Study.

JMIR Med Inform

January 2025

Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, The First Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, Nanchang, China.

Background: Many tools have been developed to predict the risk of diabetes in a population without diabetes; however, these tools have shortcomings that include the omission of race, inclusion of variables that are not readily available to patients, and low sensitivity or specificity.

Objective: We aimed to develop and validate an easy, systematic index for predicting diabetes risk in the Asian population.

Methods: We collected the data from the NAGALA (NAfld [nonalcoholic fatty liver disease] in the Gifu Area, Longitudinal Analysis) database.

AiGPro: a multi-tasks model for profiling of GPCRs for agonist and antagonist.

J Cheminform

January 2025

School of Systems Biomedical Science, Soongsil University, 369 Sangdo-ro, Dongjak-gu, 06978, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play vital roles in various physiological processes, making them attractive drug discovery targets. Meanwhile, deep learning techniques have revolutionized drug discovery by facilitating efficient tools for expediting the identification and optimization of ligands. However, existing models for the GPCRs often focus on single-target or a small subset of GPCRs or employ binary classification, constraining their applicability for high throughput virtual screening.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a highly common type of malignancy and affects millions of men in the world since it is easy to recur or emerge therapy resistance. Therefore, it is urgent to find novel treatments for PCa patients. In the current study, we found that tegaserod maleate (TM), an FDA-approved agent, inhibited proliferation, colony formation, migration as well as invasion, caused the arrest of the cell cycle, and promoted apoptosis of PCa cells in vitro.

Comparison of NoSAS score with STOP-Bang and Berlin scores in predicting difficult airway.

BMC Anesthesiol

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Suleyman Demirel University, Operating Room, Floor:1, Cunur, Isparta, 32260, Turkey.

Background: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scoring systems, which are utilized to predict obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), in forecasting difficult airway management. Additionally, the study sought to determine which of these scoring systems is the most practical and effective for this purpose.

Methods: Following the ethics committee approval, preoperative NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scores were calculated for 420 patients aged 18 years and older who were scheduled for tracheal intubation.

Flaky sputtered silicon MWCNTs core-shell structure as a freestanding binder-free electrode for lithium-ion battery.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Nano-fabricated Energy Devices Lab, School of Electrical and Computer Eng., University of Tehran, 14395-515, Tehran, Iran.

Core-shell silicon/multiwall carbon nanotubes are one of the most promising anode candidates for further improvement of lithium-ion batteries. Sufficient accommodation for massive volume expansion of silicon during the lithiation process and preventing pulverization and delamination with easy fabrication processes are still critical issues for practical applications. In this study, core-shell silicon/MWCNTs anode materials were synthesized using a facile and controllable PECVD technique to realize aligned MWCNTs followed by a silicon sputtering step.
