The sirtuin (SIRT) family is a group of seven conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent histone deacetylases (SIRT1-SIRT7), which play crucial roles in various fundamental biological processes, including metabolism, aging, stress responses, inflammation, and cell survival. The role of SIRTs in neuro-pathophysiology has recently attracted significant attention. Notably, SIRT1-SIRT3 have been identified as key players in neuroprotection as they reduce neuroinflammation and regulate mitochondrial function. This review summarizes the latest research advancements in the role of the SIRT family in neurological diseases, mainly including neurodegenerative diseases, ischemia-related diseases, bleeding-related diseases, nervous system injury and other nervous system diseases, emphasizing their critical functions and associated signaling pathways, (e.g., AMPK/SIRT1/PGC-1α, AMPK/SIRT1/IL-1β/NF-κB, STAT2-SIRT4-mTOR, SIRT3/FOXO3α, and other signaling pathways in disease progression, particularly their protective roles in neurodegenerative diseases, ischemic injuries, and neural damage. Additionally, this review discusses progress in clinical studies targeting SIRT-specific small-molecule agonists and inhibitors. Further research on SIRTs may provide new insights into potential therapeutic strategies for the prevention and treatment of neurological disorders.

Ferroptosis is a classic type of programmed cell death characterized by iron dependence, which is closely associated with many diseases such as cancer, intestinal ischemic diseases, and nervous system diseases. Transferrin (Tf) is responsible for ferric-ion delivery owing to its natural Fe binding ability and plays a crucial role in ferroptosis. However, Tf is not considered as a classic druggable target for ferroptosis-associated diseases since systemic perturbation of Tf would dramatically disrupt blood iron homeostasis.

Inter-organ crosstalk, which is essential for coordinating organ function and maintaining homeostasis, is involved in multiple physiological and pathological events. Increasing evidence suggests that AD is closely associated with multiple diseases of peripheral organs, including the gut, adipose tissue, liver, and bone.

Purpose: This study aimed at comparing the costs of spinal fusion surgery between patients with and without diabetes.
Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search of four databases was conducted. A meta-analysis was performed on comparative studies examining diabetic versus non-diabetic adults undergoing cervical/lumbar fusion in terms of cost.

Background: Numerous studies have highlighted the role of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease (AD) development. Yet, the alignment of systemic and central oxidative stress biomarkers is unclear across diverse populations in the AD continuum. This study aims to assess protein damage levels in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the AD continuum.
