Introduction: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) represents a significant clinical challenge, with its underlying mechanisms yet to be fully elucidated. Despite advances in understanding, the precise pathophysiology driving RSA remains unclear. Angelica sinensis, a traditional herbal remedy, is frequently used as an adjunctive treatment for miscarriage.

Background Aims: SBP leads to high rates acute kidney injury (AKI) -hepatorenal syndrome and mortality. Population-based studies on contemporary SBP epidemiology are needed to inform care. In a large, national cohort of patients diagnosed with SBP and confirmed by ascitic fluid criteria, we characterized ascitic fluid characteristics, in-hospital and 12-month mortality, AKI, and recurrent SBP.

Approximately 10-20% of thyroid cancers are driven by gene fusions, which activate oncogenic signaling through aberrant overexpression, ligand-independent dimerization, or loss of inhibitory motifs. We identified 13 thyroid tumors with thyroglobulin (TG) gene fusions and aimed to assess their histopathology and the fusions' oncogenic and tumorigenic properties. Of 11 cases with surgical pathology, 82% were carcinomas and 18% noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasms with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP).

Reduced trophoblast migration and invasion contribute to unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) plays a crucial role in facilitating trophoblast migration and invasion during early pregnancy through fetal-maternal crosstalk. This study aimed to comprehensively investigate the mechanism involving AQP3 and its modulatory effects on human extravillous trophoblast (HTR-8/SVneo cells) migration and invasion.
