Quality of life and clinical correlates in cognitively-able autistic adults: A special focus on sensory characteristics and perceived parental support
CONCLUSION: Findings supported lower QoL in autistic adults. Modifying the QoL correlates may improve life quality in autistic adults. Furthermore, our findings revealed the importance of sensory symptoms and paternal support in QoL of autistic adults, which was a novel finding in this population.PMID:38570236 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfma.2024.03.022 (Source: J Formos Med Assoc)

Approach to a cerebral hernia caused by an intratumoral hemorrhage of a cystic oligodendroglioma: a case report
This study presents a case of cerebral herniation subsequent to cystic oligodendroglioma (COD) and sudden intratumoral hemorrhage. Following initial emergency treatment and evaluation, we successfully circumvented the solid component of the tumor and proceeded with cystic puncture and external drainage to prevent the incidence of brain herniation and mitigate the severity of associated symptoms. Based on preoperative examination results, the cystic glioma was successfully resected, and the patient experienced an uneventful recovery. According to the pathological findings, the oligodendroglioma was classified as World Healt...

Chronic kidney disease and the global public health agenda: an international consensus
Nature Reviews Nephrology, Published online: 03 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41581-024-00820-6Addressing the burden of non-communicable diseases is a global public health priority. In this joint Consensus Statement, the American Society of Nephrology, the European Renal Association and the International Society of Nephrology highlight the need to recognize kidney disease as a key driver of premature mortality, in addition to other non-communicable diseases already prioritized by the World Health Organization.

Metabolomic profiling of maternal plasma identifies inverse associations of acetate and urea with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers following COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy
In conclusion, we identified different metabolic pathways that underlie the diverse humoral responses triggered by COVID-19 mRNA vaccines during pregnancy. Our data hold significant implications for refining COVID-19 vaccination approaches in expectant mothers.Key messagesAnti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers decline as the number of days since COVID-19 vaccination increases.Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers are inversely associated with acetate, a microbial-derived metabolite, and urea.Amino acid metabolism is significantly associated with SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers.
