Objective: Due to the high global prevalence of silicosis and the ongoing challenges in its diagnosis, this pilot study aims to screen biomarkers from routine blood parameters and develop a multi-biomarker model for its early detection.
Methods: A case-control study was conducted to screen biomarkers for the diagnosis of silicosis using LASSO regression, SVM and RF. A sample of 612 subjects (half cases and half controls) were randomly divided into training and test groups in a 2:1 ratio.

Introduction: Critically ill patients present multiple risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Underdosing of antithrombotic medications can result in VTE even as bleeding remains a significant concern for critically ill patients. On the other hand bleeding, remaining a significant concern for the critically ill, can be worsend by overdosing of antithrombotic medications.

Cognitive impairment, marked by a decline in essential mental aspects such as attention, memory, and problem-solving, is significantly correlated with advancing age. This condition presents a major challenge for the elderly, adversely affecting quality of life, diminishing independence, and imposing substantial burdens on healthcare systems. Recent research indicates that vitamin K2 may be vital for preserving brain health and cognitive function.

Blood clots (BCs) play a crucial biomechanical role in promoting osteogenesis and regulating mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) function and fate. This study shows that BC formation enhances MSC osteogenesis by activating Itgb1/Fak-mediated focal adhesion and subsequent Runx2-mediated bone regeneration. Notably, BC viscoelasticity regulates this effect by modulating Runx2 nuclear translocation.
