Objective: This study aims to investigate the genetic link between psoriasis and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL).
Methods: From a genetic standpoint, this study further highlighted the connection between psoriasis and SSNHL. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) connected to SSNHL could be found using a genome-wide association study from the IEU OpenGWAS project website. In addition, the inverse variance weighted (IVW) technique was used to evaluate the connection between psoriasis and SSNHL.
Results: According to Mendelian randomization analysis, IVW supported the causal relationship between psoriasis and SSNHL (OR = 808.86, 95%CI 3.32 ~ 196942.07, P = 0.02). In the sensitivity analysis, there was no heterogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy, and the Leave-one-out analysis suggested that the causal effect was robust.The results of MR-Egger (Q = 13.53, P = 0.76) and IVW (Q = 14.73, P = 0.74) showed that there was no heterogeneity in SNPs, and the results were reliable. We also performed a horizontal pleiotropic analysis (P = 0.29), which showed that there was no horizontal pleiotropy and no confounding factors in the study.
Conclusion: From a genetic perspective, there is a causal relationship between psoriasis and an increased risk of sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

Background: Cancer-targeted therapies are progressively pivotal in oncological care. Observational studies underscore the emergence of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT), impacting patient outcomes. We aimed to investigate the causal relationship between different types of cancer-targeted therapies and cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes through a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study.

Background: Microwave ablation is a new, minimally invasive technique for the treatment of thyroid nodules. Hyperthyroidism due to destructive thyroiditis is a known risk of microwave ablation, though it occurs in only a minority of cases. We report a rare case of a patient diagnosed with Graves' disease nearly six months after undergoing microwave ablation of a thyroid nodule.

Background: A significant association between immune cells and sepsis has been suggested by observational studies. However, the precise biological mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. Therefore, we employed a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the causal relationship between immune cells and genetic susceptibility to sepsis, and to explore the potential mediating role of blood metabolites.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is the leading cause of viral encephalitis in the Asia-Pacific region. Amplification of JEV in pigs is a potent driver for spillover of the infection to humans, and hence monitoring of virus dynamics in pigs can provide insights into JEV ecology. To study the dynamics of natural JEV infection in a tropical region, two groups of immunologically naïve pigs consisting of six animals per group were kept as sentinels on two different farms in the district of Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India.

Excessive auxin accumulation inhibits protocorm development during germination of Paphiopedilum spicerianum, delaying shoot meristem formation by downregulating boundary genes (CUC1, CUC2, CLV3) and promoting fungal colonization, essential for seedling establishment. Paphiopedilum, possess high horticultural and conservational value. Asymbiotic germination is a common propagation method, but high rates of protocorm developmental arrest hinder seedling establishment.
