A Dysfunctional microcirculation is universal in shock and is often dissociated from global hemodynamic parameters. Persistent microcirculatory derangements reflect ongoing tissue hypoperfusion and organ injury. The initial microcirculatory dysfunction and subsequent resolution could potentially guide therapy and predict outcomes. We evaluated the…[Read more]

10-33.00) than in the lowest one (4.20/100,000 95% CI 1.92-8.00). The incident cases of TGA increased with the level of urbanization (χ2 trend test = 19.940, p  less then  0.001) and the population density (inhabitants/km2) level (χ2 trend test = 46.684, p  less then  0.001). Since urbanization is likely involved in stress-related di…[Read more]

lder age could increase the probability of reaching longevity. However, replication of our findings in other cohorts is needed.

The present study examines the impact of coronavirus-related restrictions on mental health among American adults, and how this relationship varies as a function of time and two measures of vulnerability (preexisting…[Read more]

Translation initiation is a key step determining protein synthesis. Studies have uncovered a number of alternative translation initiation sites (TISs) in mammalian mRNAs and showed their roles in reshaping the proteome. However, the extent to which alternative TISs affect gene expression across plants remains largely unclear. Here, by profiling…[Read more]

To investigate the postoperative recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after liver resection in patients with and without the achievement of sustained virologic response (SVR) through the administration of direct-acting…[Read more]

We reported a novel mild phenotype of LGMD2Y with relatively selective distal upper limb weakness and joint contracture and revealed the heterogeneity of LGDM2Y and the role of the LAP1 isoform by literature review.

To demonstrate the feasibility of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) testing in vanishing twin (VT) pregnancies in routine clinical practice.

Our study included 24 874 singleton and 206 VT consecutive pregnancies. Cell-free DNA was analyzed by massively parallel sequencing. Both aneuploidy analysis (chromosomes 13,18, 21, X, and Y) and fetal fraction e…[Read more]

Orthographic processing is crucial in reading. For the Chinese language, sub-lexical processing has already taken place at radical level. Previous literature reported early position-specific radical representations and later position-general radical representations, implying a possible separating process of abstract position information…[Read more]

In this study, the recent history of heavy metal pollution in the Fangcheng Bay (South China) was reconstructed utilizing three 210Pb-dated sediment cores. The metal concentration profiles display three trends since the 1970s and clearly reflect local urbanization and industrialization. The metals in the Fangcheng Bay started to accumulate in the…[Read more]

This narrative review examines associations of delay discounting, response inhibition, sensation-seeking, and urgency with adolescent problem substance use. Each of these processes is linked to adult substance use disorders, is associated with conditions linked to increased risk for adolescent problem substance use, and predicts problem substance…[Read more]
