Call for special attention to the caregiver burden of patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis in low- and middle-income countries
This study briefly summarized the risk factors for the imposition of a TB-related CB and reasons why caregivers for patients with M/XDR-TB are more susceptible to a CB. We propose that special measures should be implemented to alleviate the TB-related CB based on our clinical experience and insights from China. This may improve the situation of caregivers for TB patients and ultimately improve the quality of life of TB patients.PMID:37839889 | DOI:10.5582/bst.2023.01243 (Source: BioScience Trends)

Improving the accessibility of health care for internal migrants in China: Achieving the aim of equalization
Biosci Trends. 2023 Oct 14. doi: 10.5582/bst.2023.01220. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough equitable access to healthcare is considered key to the health of internal migrants, more concerted efforts are needed to improve the accessibility of healthcare in low- and middle-income countries. The software CiteSpace was used to analyze scientific literature on healthcare utilization among internal migrants in China since 2000. We focused on factors influencing access to healthcare, including geographical, economic, sociocultural, and institutional aspects. The government is urged to play a role in ensuring equal access to ...

The prognostic nutritional index and tumor pathological characteristics predict the prognosis of elderly patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma after surgery
In conclusion, for elderly HCC patients, COPD, age ≥ 75 years, PNI-low, and tumor presence of satellite nodules, capsule, and microvascular invasion were independent prognostic factors. The nomogram could accurately predict the prognosis of these patients.PMID:37813644 | DOI:10.5582/bst.2023.01212 (Source: BioScience Trends)

Genome-wide identification of mammalian cell-cycle invariant and mitotic-specific macroH2A1 domains
Biosci Trends. 2023 Sep 29. doi: 10.5582/bst.2023.01214. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe histone variant macroH2A has been found to play important regulatory roles in genomic processes, especially in regulating transcriptomes. However, whether macroH2A nucleosomes are retained on mitotic chromosomes to enable maintenance of cell-specific transcriptomes is not known. Here, examining mouse embryonic fibroblast cells (NIH-3T3) with native chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (nChIP-seq), we show that the overwhelming majority (~90%) of macroH2A1 domains identified at the G1/S stage are indeed stably retained on mito...
