Causal association between plasma vascular endothelial growth factor family proteins and placenta previa

This study investigates associations between genetically proxied plasma vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family proteins and placenta previa using 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Exposure GWAS summary statistics were obtained from the UK Biobank and IEU resources,...

Fractional laser therapy versus microneedling for non-acne scars and scar-like dermal fibrotic lesions

Scarring caused by trauma, burns, surgery, and other dermal fibrotic conditions can lead to functional limitation and cosmetic distress. The comparative effectiveness of fractional laser therapy and microneedling for non-acne scars remains uncertain. We conducted a systematic rev...

Sequential Integration of Microenvironment Regulation Utilizing Aggregation‐Induced Emission Luminogen‐Based Carbon Dots for Diabetic Wound Treatment

Effective management of diabetic wound healing remains challenging due to the complex wound microenvironment, characterized by persistent infections and inflammation, as well as obstacles in tissue repair, including impaired extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and re-epithelial...

Development of a urine-based DNA methylation assay for early endometrial cancer detection: a multicenter diagnostic study

Endometrial cancer (EC) incidence is rising globally, yet diagnosis still depends on invasive procedures, which limit accessibility and delay early detection. A noninvasive, accurate, and accessible diagnostic assay is urgently needed to enable early EC detection. In this multice...

Osimertinib With or Without Chemotherapy in Advanced Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer With EGFR and Concurrent TP53 Mutations

Importance: Combination therapy has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its clinical benefit-risk profile remains a focus of ongoing debate. Identifying patients...

Exploring multidimensional cfDNA methylation fragmentomics for non-invasive postoperative assessment in early-stage lung cancer

Background Effective postoperative monitoring remains an important area of investigation for early-stage lung cancer patients after curative resection. This exploratory technical feasibility study evaluated a methylation-based fragmentomics approach by analyzing paired pre- and p...

Cardiac MR Characterization of Infarct‐Related and Remote Myocardial Injury in Multivessel Disease After Acute Myocardial Infarction

BACKGROUND: Patients with multivessel disease (MVD) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have worse outcomes than those with single-vessel disease (SVD), but whether MVD is associated with diffuse myocardial injury beyond the infarct zone (IZ) remains unclear. PURPOSE: To char...

The relationships of parenting styles, self-esteem and rejection sensitivity: a latent profile analysis

Abstract Background A large number of theoretical reasoning and empirical studies have shown that both parenting style and self-esteem have an impact on the formation of rejection sensitivity, and there may be more complex mechanisms between the above variables. This study aims t...
