Concentration strategies for spiked and naturally present biomarkers in non-invasively collected first-void urine
ConclusionsWith this study, we provide novel insights into how various biomarker precipitation protocols, including both the properties of FVU and the use of PEG as a precipitating agent, influence the concentration of cfDNA, cellular gDNA, and pseudovirions.

Association of triglyceride glucose index with cardiovascular events: insights from the Isfahan Cohort Study (ICS)
ConclusionWe found a robust, direct association between the TyG index and the incidence of CVD events. This emphasizes the significance of observing the TyG index as an indicator of the occurrence of CVD events. (Source: European Journal of Medical Research)

Reliability, stability during long-term storage, and intra-individual variation of circulating levels of osteopontin, osteoprotegerin, vascular endothelial growth factor-A, and interleukin-17A
ConclusionsWe conclude that OPN and VEGF-A can be reliably measured in a large population, that IL-17A is suitable only for small experiments, and that OPG should be assessed with caution due to degradation during storage and intra-individual variation. The overall results of our study illustrate the need for validation under relevant conditions when measuring circulating cytokines in population studies.

The optimal blood glucose is significantly associated with lower mortality in critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock: an analysis revealed with time series blood glucose records
ConclusionThe optimal BG level for patients with cardiogenic shock is 104 –138 mg/dl. BG levels below 104 mg/dl and above 138 mg/dl were associated with a less favorable prognosis. (Source: European Journal of Medical Research)

Enhancing tube feeding method for neurosurgery: the application of improved PICC technique
ConclusionIn patients with neurosurgical diseases, especially those with tracheostomy and nuchal stiffness, the IECG-IBP PICC catheter insertion method can effectively reduce the patient's neck resistance, does not increase the patient's headache and dizziness symptoms, and does not reduce the success of one-time catheterization. Rate and does not increase the incidence of jugular venous ectopia. (Source: European Journal of Medical Research)

Long noncoding RNA and messenger RNA profiling in epicardial adipose tissue of patients with new-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting
ConclusionsThis study unveils a potential association between myocardial fibrosis and ion channels co-regulated by mRNAs and lncRNAs, closely linked to the emergence of new-onset POAF, after accounting for clinical risk factors. This discovery holds promise for further advances in clinical and fundamental research. (Source: European Journal of Medical Research)

Dual-energy computed tomography in the early evaluation of acute radiation pneumonia
ConclusionThe dual-energy DSCT could effectively evaluate pulmonary perfusion changes after radiotherapy for esophageal cancer, and the NIC reduction rate was useful as a reference index to predict ARP and provide further reference for decisions in clinical practice.

Follow-up outcome analysis of 324 cases of early-onset and late-onset mild fetal ventriculomegaly: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionsEarly-onset and late-onset mild VM had significantly different ultrasound features and outcomes. Early-onset mild VM may have more complex potential abnormalities and are more likely to predict poor prognosis than the late-onset. (Source: European Journal of Medical Research)

The impact of the first and the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic on vascular surgery practice in the leading regional center: a comparative, retrospective study
ConclusionsThe reduction of scheduled admissions and procedures affected vascular centers all over the world. Minimally invasive procedures were more willingly performed to shorten the hospitalization time and reduce the patient's exposure to hospital infection. It allowed us to treat more patients during the second wave. Nevertheless, an increased number of vascular patients should be expected in the future, which will result from the failure to perform elective procedures during the pandemic.

The paradoxical role of cytokines and chemokines at the tumor microenvironment: a comprehensive review
AbstractTumor progression and eradication have long piqued the scientific community's interest. Recent discoveries about the role of chemokines and cytokines in these processes have fueled renewed interest in related research. These roles are frequently viewed as contentious due to their ability to both suppress and promote cancer progression. As a result, this review critically appraised existing literature to discuss the unique roles of cytokines and chemokines in the tumor microenvironment, as well as the existing challenges and future opportunities for exploiting these roles to develop novel and targeted treatments.
