Serum stromal cell-derived factor 1α as a prognostic indicator in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia receiving CAG-based chemotherapy.
Front Oncol

The Second Department of General Surgery, the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Hebei, Shijiazhuang, China.
Background: Stromal-cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis and has been implicated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis. Understanding its relationship with chemotherapy outcomes could lead to improved therapeutic approaches for elderly AML patients.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the medical records of elderly AML patients (n = 187) and compared serum SDF-1α levels with age-matched controls (n = 120).
Multimodal assessment predicts cognitive impairment after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a prospective cohort study.

January 2025
Department of neurosurgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Background: Risk factors and mechanisms of cognitive impairment (CI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) are unclear. This study used a neuropsychological battery, MRI, ERP and CSF and plasma biomarkers to predict long-term cognitive impairment after aSAH.
Materials And Methods: 214 patients hospitalized with aSAH (n = 125) or unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) (n = 89) were included in this prospective cohort study.
Linking higher amyloid beta 1-38 (Aβ(1-38)) levels to reduced Alzheimer's disease progression risk.

Introduction: The beneficial effects of amyloid beta 1-38, or Aβ(1-38), on Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression in humans in vivo remain controversial. We investigated AD patients' cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aβ(1-38) and AD progression.
Methods: Cognitive function and diagnostic change were assessed annually for 3 years in 177 Aβ-positive participants with subjective cognitive decline (SCD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) longitudinal cognitive impairment and dementia study (DELCODE) cohort using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Preclinical Alzheimer's Cognitive Composite (PACC), Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), and National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke-Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association (NINCDS-ADRDA) criteria.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, driven by sensory stimulation-induced neuronal activity, is crucial for maintaining homeostasis and clearing metabolic waste. However, it remains unclear whether such CSF flow is impaired in age-related neurodegenerative diseases of the visual system. This study addresses this gap by examining CSF flow during visual stimulation in glaucoma patients and healthy older adults using functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Methods: MiR-501-3p and miR-502-3p expressions were evaluated in AD CSF exosomes, serum exosomes, familial and sporadic AD fibroblasts and B-lymphocytes by qRT-PCR analysis.
