IDENTIFICATION OF A NOVEL SEPSIS PROGNOSIS MODEL: BASED ON TRANSCRIPTOME AND PROTEOME ANALYSIS.

Sepsis is a highly prevalent and deadly disease. Currently, there is a lack of ideal biomarker prognostis models for sepsis. We attempt to construct a model capable of predicting the prognosis of sepsis patients by integrating transcriptomic and proteomic data.

A sponge-like nanofiber melatonin-loaded scaffold accelerates vascularized bone regeneration via improving mitochondrial energy metabolism.

Electrospun nanofibers have been widely employed in bone tissue engineering for their ability to mimic the micro to nanometer scale network of the native bone extracellular matrix. However, the dense fibrous structure and limited mechanical support of these nanofibers pose challenges for the treatment of critical size bone defects. In this study, we propose a facile approach for creating a three-dimensional scaffold using interconnected electrospun nanofibers containing melatonin (Scaffold@MT).

Zinc-energized dynamic hydrogel accelerates bone regeneration via potentiating the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis.

Insufficient initial vascularization plays a pivotal role in the ineffectiveness of bone biomaterials for treating bone defects. Consequently, enhancing the angiogenic properties of bone repair biomaterials holds immense importance in augmenting the efficacy of bone regeneration. In this context, we have successfully engineered a composite hydrogel capable of promoting vascularization in the process of bone regeneration.

Cascaded controlled delivering growth factors to build vascularized and osteogenic microenvironment for bone regeneration.

The process of bone regeneration is intricately regulated by various cytokines at distinct stages. The establishment of early and efficient vascularization, along with the maintenance of a sustained osteoinductive microenvironment, plays a crucial role in the successful utilization of bone repair materials. This study aimed to develop a composite hydrogel that would facilitate the creation of an osteogenic microenvironment for bone repair.

Activation of NRF2 by celastrol increases antioxidant functions and prevents the progression of osteoarthritis in mice.

Excessive oxidative stress impairs cartilage matrix metabolism balance, significantly contributing to osteoarthritis (OA) development. Celastrol (CSL), a drug derived from Tripterygium wilfordii, has recognized applications in the treatment of cancer and immune system disorders, yet its antioxidative stress mechanisms in OA remain underexplored. This study aimed to substantiate CSL's chondroprotective effects and unravel its underlying mechanisms.

Melatonin-encapsuled silk fibroin electrospun nanofibers promote vascularized bone regeneration through regulation of osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.

The repair of critical-sized bone defects poses a significant challenge due to the absence of periosteum, which plays a crucial role in coordinating the processes of osteogenesis and vascularization during bone healing. Herein, we hypothesized that melatonin-encapsuled silk Fibronin electrospun nanofibers (SF@MT) could provide intrinsic induction of both osteogenesis and angiogenesis, thereby promoting vascularized bone regeneration. The sustained release of melatonin from the SF@MT nanofibers resulted in favorable biocompatibility and superior osteogenic induction of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs).

Research progress of vascularization strategies of tissue-engineered bone.

The bone defect caused by fracture, bone tumor, infection, and other causes is not only a problematic point in clinical treatment but also one of the hot issues in current research. The development of bone tissue engineering provides a new way to repair bone defects. Many animal experimental and rising clinical application studies have shown their excellent application prospects.

Irisin-loaded electrospun core-shell nanofibers as calvarial periosteum accelerate vascularized bone regeneration by activating the mitochondrial SIRT3 pathway.

The scarcity of native periosteum poses a significant clinical barrier in the repair of critical-sized bone defects. The challenge of enhancing regenerative potential in bone healing is further compounded by oxidative stress at the fracture site. However, the introduction of artificial periosteum has demonstrated its ability to promote bone regeneration through the provision of appropriate mechanical support and controlled release of pro-osteogenic factors.

Paraneoplastic syndrome in malignant lymphoma: A case report.

Hypercalcaemia associated with malignancy is a complication of advanced tumors. Lactic acidosis is also an extremely rare paraneoplastic syndrome of malignancy, and the presence of both usually indicates an extremely poor prognosis for the tumour. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and is also a common aggressive lymphoma.

SnRNA-Seq analysis reveals ten hub genes associated with alveolar epithelial cell injury during pulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Background: Alveolar epithelial cell injury is a key factor in the occurrence and development of pulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDSp). Yet the gene expression profile of alveolar epithelial cells of patients with ARDSp remains unclear.

Methods: We analyzed single nuclear RNA sequencing (snRNA-Seq) data from autopsy lung tissues of both ARDSp patients and healthy donors.

Application of a six sigma model to evaluate the analytical performance of cerebrospinal fluid biochemical analytes and the design of quality control strategies for these assays: A single-centre study.

Background: In this study, we applied a six sigma model to examine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biochemical analytes for the first time. Our goal was to evaluate the analytical performance of various CSF biochemical analytes, design an optimized internal quality control (IQC) strategy, and formulate scientific and reasonable improvement plans.

Methods: The sigma values of CSF total protein (CSF-TP), albumin (CSF-ALB), chloride (CSF-Cl), and glucose (CSF-GLU) were calculated using the following formula: sigma = [TEa(%)-|bias(%)|]/CV(%).

Identifying cancer tissue-of-origin by a novel machine learning method based on expression quantitative trait loci.

Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) refers to cancer with primary lesion unidentifiable by regular pathological and clinical diagnostic methods. This kind of cancer is extremely difficult to treat, and patients with CUP usually have a very short survival time. Recent studies have suggested that cancer treatment targeting primary lesion will significantly improve the survival of CUP patients.
