Association of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) with risk of psoriasis: a cross-sectional analysis of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2014.
Eur J Med Res
January 2025
The Department of Pediatrics, The Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, 410013, Hunan, China.
Background: The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is an emerging marker of inflammation, and the onset of psoriasis is associated with inflammation. The aim of our study was to investigate the potential impact of SII on the incidence rate of adult psoriasis.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014 data sets.
Gardnerella vaginalis-binding IgA in the urethra of sexually experienced males.

Department of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada.
Background: Genital inflammation increases HIV susceptibility and is associated with the density of pro-inflammatory anaerobes in the vagina and coronal sulcus. The penile urethra is a critical site of HIV acquisition, although correlates of urethral HIV acquisition are largely unknown. While Streptococcus mitis is a consistent component of the urethral flora, the presence of Gardnerella vaginalis has been linked with prior penile-vaginal sex and urethral inflammation.

January 2025
Linyi People's Hospital postgraduate training base of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Linyi, Shandong, 276000, China.
Background: The endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) has been involved in various musculoskeletal disorders including non-traumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head (NT-ONFH).
Objective: The current study aimed to investigate the association of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) as well as CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) expressions in serum and femoral head (FH) tissues with NT-ONFH's severity.
Methods: We enrolled NT-ONFH patients (n = 150) alongside healthy controls (HCs, n = 150).
Predictive factors of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormality on high-resolution computed tomography scans: a prospective observational study.
BMC Pulm Med
January 2025
Department of Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Life Sciences, Kumamoto University, Kumamoto 1-1-1 Honjo, Chuo-ku, 860-8556, Japan.
Background: Fibrotic types of interstitial lung abnormalities seen on high-resolution computed tomography scans, characterised by traction bronchiolectasis/bronchiectasis with or without honeycombing, are predictors of progression and poor prognostic factors of interstitial lung abnormalities. There are no reports on the clinical characteristics of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormalities on high-resolution computed tomography scans. Therefore, we aimed to examine these clinical characteristics and clarify the predictive factors of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormalities on high-resolution computed tomography scans.

World J Surg Oncol
January 2025
Department of Thyroid Surgery, Meizhou People's Hospital, Meizhou Academy of Medical Sciences, Meizhou, China.
Objective: To investigate the relationship of pretreatment of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) (central LNM (CLNM) and lateral LNM (LLNM)) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients with ≤ 55 years old.
Methods: Clinicopathological data (CTCs level, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, thyroid function, multifocal, tumor size, invaded capsule, clinical stage, and LNM) of 588 PTC patients with ≤ 55 years old were retrospectively collected. The relationship of CLNM, LLNM and the clinical features of patients was analyzed.
