ElectrochemiluminescenceMicroscopy

Abstract Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) microscopy is an emerging imaging technology that combines electrochemistry with optical microscopy. It operates without external light excitation, effectively eliminating photobleaching, phototoxicity, and scattered light noise, and thus e...

Temporal dynamics of PrEP adherence, self-efficacy, and risk perception among men who have sex with men in western China: a cross-lagged panel network analysis

<title>Abstract</title> Background Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) effectively reduces HIV infection risk among men who have sex with men (MSM), but its benefit depends on adherence. The longitudinal item-level relationships among PrEP adherence, self-efficacy, and risk perceptio...

TREM2 regulates continual efferocytosis of apoptotic neurons by monocyte-derived macrophages via AKT-PFKFB2-mediated glycolytic reprogramming after acute ischemic stroke

Efficient clearance of apoptotic neurons is crucial for mitigating secondary injury after acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Although monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) rapidly infiltrate the ischemic brain and upregulate triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) expres...

A portable nanobiosensor with machine learning: enabling multi-cytokines point-of-care testing and early identification of sepsis immunoparalysis

Abstract Sepsis immunoparalysis (SIs) is a major factor contributing to organ dysfunction. However, emergency departments (EDs) and intensive care units (ICUs) currently lack a rapid workflow for early identification of SIs. Herein, an innovative strategy for early SIs identifica...

PIGU expression is associated with poor prognosis and estimated immune cell infiltration in breast invasive carcinoma

Breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA) is a major cause of cancer-related mortality in women. PIGU , a subunit of the GPI-anchor biosynthesis complex, has been reported to be dysregulated in several cancers; however, its prognostic value and immune-related associations in BRCA remain u...

Early oseltamivir initiation and influenza outcomes in kidney transplant recipients: a multicenter real-world study

Influenza infection poses a significant clinical threat to kidney transplant recipients due to their immunocompromised status. Although current guidelines recommend early antiviral therapy, real-world evidence supporting the effectiveness of oseltamivir, particularly regarding th...

Photo‐Generated 1 O 2 Triggers In Situ RNA Crosslinking for High‐Contrast Tumor MRI and Effective Tumor Suppression

ABSTRACT High‐contrast imaging and effective treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain challenging, largely due to the limited tumor selectivity of existing contrast agents and the absence of stable and broadly conserved therapeutic targets. Herein, we report a photoacti...

Association between the Chinese version of the Mediterranean-DASH intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay diet and BADL/IADL disability among older adults in China: a nationwide survey

Disability is a major challenge affecting older adults’ quality of life. Although the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet has been shown to protect against functional disability in Western populations, its applicability across different cultura...

Benchmark evaluation of OpenAI-o1 vs DeepSeek-R1 for junior anesthesiologists in Chinese hospitals: hazards of fast large language models use in high-stakes specialties

Abstract Purpose Junior physicians may experience critical competency gaps during the transition to unsupervised practice, particularly in high-risk specialties such as anesthesiology, where errors can compromise patient safety. Although large language models (LLMs) are being rap...

Neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio is associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with acute aortic dissection: a multicenter retrospective cohort study

Early risk stratification remains challenging in patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR) for in-hospital mortality in patients with acute aortic dissection. We performed a multi...

Sex-specific effects of methylprednisolone on outcomes after endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion: A secondary analysis of the MARVEL trial

Background Sex-based differences in treatment response to neuroprotective strategies during endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke remain poorly understood. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate sex-specific effects of methylprednisolone on outcomes after EVT fo...
