Timing of aneurysm repair and clinical outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) causes substantial morbidity and mortality, and guidelines recommend aneurysm repair as early as feasible. However, the association between onset-to-treatment time and outcomes remains uncertain. This review synthesized evidence across multiple clinical outcomes and examined whether treatment modality modifies this association. METHODS: Searches were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and LILACS for studies comparing clinical outcomes across different onset-to-treatment windows in adults with confirmed aSAH. Findings were synthesized narratively according to the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis (SWiM) guideline. The review was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD420261415084). RESULTS: Twenty reports comprising 11,096 participant records were included, with likely overlap between two reports. Treatment categories ranged from <6 h to ≥15 days. Earlier securement likely reduced pretreatment rebleeding, particularly when untreated or markedly delayed patients were included, although treated-cohort comparisons were inconsistent. More methodologically informative adjusted analyses showed no reproducible independent association between treatment timing and functional outcome or mortality. No consistent association emerged for vasospasm or related cerebral ischemia, hydrocephalus, or length of stay. Two observational studies modeled time continuously: one found a significant U-shaped mortality association with an estimated nadir at 32.6 h, whereas the other showed a similar but non-significant adjusted pattern with an estimated nadir near 12.16 h. These findings are highly susceptible to confounding by indication and survivor bias and do not establish benefit from treatment delay. Three studies formally tested modality-timing interaction; one found a significant mortality interaction and two did not. Additional stratified analyses showed no consistent modality-specific pattern. Certainty of evidence for the timing-mortality association was very low because of serious risk of bias, inconsistency, and imprecision. CONCLUSION: Earlier aneurysm securement remains supported for preventing pretreatment rebleeding. The independent association of treatment timing with mortality or functional outcome remains uncertain. The observed mortality patterns are hypothesis-generating and do not define a validated therapeutic window, support intentional treatment delay, or justify changing current guideline recommendations. Prospective multicenter studies using continuous-time modeling and rigorous methods to address confounding and survivor bias are needed.

Transpulmonary proteomic gradient analysis in women with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with systemic sclerosis.

This study investigated proteomic alterations in the pulmonary circulation of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with systemic sclerosis (PAH-SSc) by analyzing the transpulmonary protein gradient and comparing the proteomic profiles with systemic sclerosis (SSc) without PAH. Twenty women were included (10 PAH-SSc, 64.6 ± 10.8 years; 10 SSc, 62.8 ± 11.5 years). The transpulmonary gradient was defined as the difference in biomarker concentrations between wedge-position and pulmonary artery blood samples. Peptides were analysed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and differentially abundant proteins were identified with Proteome Discoverer. Protein-protein interaction networks were generated with STRING and visualized in Cytoscape. A total of 270 proteins were detected, with no significant transpulmonary gradient alterations. However, patients with PAH-SSc showed distinct proteomic profiles compared to SSc. Multivariate analysis identified 48 differentially abundant proteins in pulmonary artery plasma, with 15 overrepresented and 33 downregulated in PAH-SSc. Among these, the downregulation of transforming growth factor-beta-induced protein ig-h3 (TGFβI/ig-h3) points to a potential involvement of the TGF-β-related extracellular matrix remodelling pathway in PAH-SSc. However, further validation in larger and independent cohorts is required before its relevance as a biomarker or therapeutic target can be established. In conclusion, while no transpulmonary proteomic gradient was observed, the proteomic profiles of PAH-SSc and SSc were different. The profile in PAH-SSc was characterized by differences in immune response, lipid metabolism, and hemostatic proteins. SIGNIFICANCE: This study offers the first proteomic characterization of the transpulmonary gradient in PAH-SSc and SSc. Although no differences in the gradient were found, the pulmonary artery plasma proteome of PAH-SSc patients showed a distinct pattern compared to SSc. Several proteins associated with immune function, haemostasis, and cellular processes were altered, which may indicate specific pathophysiological features of PAH-SSc or suggest how lung dysfunction develops in SSc. Targeting dysregulated proteins like TGFβI/ig-h3 or addressing immune-coagulation imbalances may support future research studies. Overall, these findings refine the molecular profile of PAH-SSc and provide a basis for future large-scale studies aimed at clarifying disease mechanisms and identifying clinically relevant molecular signatures.

A novel neoadjuvant immunotherapy confers improved overall survival in oral cancer patients with low tumor PD-L1 expression The IT-MATTERS Clinical trial - Prognostic role of tumor PD-L1 expression.

OBJECTIVE: Five-year overall survival (OS) remains < 50% for patients with resectable, locally advanced (LA) primary oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and soft palate, receiving current standard of care (SOC). The aim of our study was to examine neoadjuvant Leukocyte Interleukin Injection (LI) with CIZ (intravenous low dose cyclophosphamide, indomethacin and zinc multivitamins) effect on OS, in low-risk (LR) OSCC patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In a randomized, controlled Phase 3 trial, treatment-naïve locally advanced patients, with stage III/IVa OSCC and soft-palate cancer, had surgical tumor samples assessed for pre-defined thresholds of PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS). OS was analyzed using proportional hazard models for LI + CIZ + SOC vs SOC, in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population. RESULTS: OS was superior in low risk (LR) patients receiving LI + CIZ + SOC compared to SOC; OS advantage hazard ratio (HR) 0.64, p = 0.0569 (without selecting for N0, PD-L1 TPS < 10%), and the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) lifetable achieved significance (log rank p = 0.0340) favoring LI + CIZ + SOC vs SOC. Applying the selection criteria (cN0 and TPS < 10%) to ITT, OS reached HR 0.34p = 0.0012, Kaplan-Meier log rank p = 0.0015. The ITT LR cohort (cN0 and TPS < 10%) achieved a HR 0.26 (p = 0.0023), Kaplan-Meier log rank p = 0.0013, supported by progression free survival (PFS) HR 0.43, p = 0.0178, Kaplan-Meier log rank p = 0.0431, with 32% absolute survival advantage over control at 60 months. CONCLUSIONS: Significant OS prolongation was observed in ITT population for LI + CIZ + SOC vs SOC, in LR and in ITT LR cN0, PD-L1TPS < 10% cohort having locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma tumors in oral cavity/soft-palate. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01265849; EudraCT (Identifier: 2010-019952-35).

Emotional and Cognitive Processes Underlying Persuasion, Moderating Factors, and Physiological Reactions: A Systematic Review.

Persuasion is a type of social influence aiming to produce changes in others' attitudes or behaviors. This study explores the relationship between emotions and persuasion, principal moderating factors, and physiological reactions during persuasive attempts. Following PRISMA guidelines, 28 empirical articles were analyzed, addressing emotions, affective/cognitive orientations, framing effects, and psychophysiological reactions. Mixed findings emerged regarding emotions, with fear appeals being effective in health education, while more recent studies favor the use of positive persuasive messages to increase behavior intention. Principal moderating factors included personal relevance, need for cognition (NFC) and need for affect (NFA), thought confidence, vulnerability, and efficacy beliefs. Psychophysiological studies revealed distinct physiological arousal during persuasion processing compared to a rest state. In addition, a greater misalignment between current behavior and the persuasive attempt led to perceived freedom threat and psychological reactance. These insights enhance persuasive effectiveness and deepen understanding of persuasion processes, guiding future research directions.

Indigenous and local knowledge inclusion in forest fauna research: A systematic review in the tropics.

Indigenous and Local Knowledge (ILK) is an expression of biocultural diversity and is vital for inclusive and sustainable forest management and epistemic justice. We examine how researchers studying tropical forest fauna engage with ILK and the Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC) who are holders of this knowledge. We conducted a systematic review of 62 articles that focus on tropical forest fauna and ILK. We used a category-based quantitative and qualitative content analysis on the types of forest fauna studied and how research engages with, defines and represents ILK. We also evaluated the varied forms of inclusion of IPLC in the research. We find that less than half of the reviewed studies (25) explicitly define ILK, and only four studies reported including IPLC in the decision-making processes. Our findings reveal that science has not fully acknowledged and understood the depth of ILK and we suggest ways to address this in future research.

Single-nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell type-specific remodeling and epilepsy-associated microglia.

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common acquired epilepsy, causing refractory seizures and cognitive deficits. We performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing on hippocampal tissue from mice 3 and 6 weeks following pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus, a robust model of TLE. Epilepsy samples showed reductions in Cck and Lamp5-Lhx6 interneuron subclusters, alongside increases in Cajal-Retzius cells, dentate granule (DG) cell precursors, and a mature DG cell subcluster. Among glia, an astrocyte subcluster and a markedly expanded microglia sublcuster were increased. We term this microglia population epilepsy-associated microglia (EAM). The transcriptomic profile of EAM overlaps with microglia described in models of Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury, including enrichment of Myo1e and Igf1. EAM display amoeboid morphology, can be found in clumps around pyramidal and granule cell body layers, and exhibit enlarged vesicles and mitochondria. Cell-cell interaction analysis predicts DG cells as their primary interaction partners. This dataset defines transcriptomic programs underlying key cellular alterations in TLE, enabling mechanistic dissection of epileptogenesis.

Rotavirus vaccine effectiveness against rotavirus and acute gastroenteritis mortality: an analysis of pooled case-control studies from the MNSSTER-V dataset.

BACKGROUND: Rotavirus accounts for an estimated 25% of diarrhoea deaths in children under 5 years globally, and more than 140 countries have included rotavirus vaccines in their routine national infant vaccination programmes. We aimed to calculate rotavirus vaccine effectiveness against rotavirus-positive and all-cause acute gastroenteritis deaths. METHODS: The Multi-National Subpopulations Study to Evaluate Rotavirus Vaccines (MNSSTER-V) dataset combines child-level data from test-negative case-control studies of rotavirus vaccine effectiveness that enrolled children under 5 years of age seeking care for acute gastroenteritis at hospitals or emergency departments in 24 countries between July 1, 2007, and Aug 24, 2023. Children were included in this study if they were: younger than 5 years, met the acute gastroenteritis case definition (had at least three episodes of diarrhoea in a 24-h period, had non-bloody and non-chronic diarrhoea, and were enrolled within 7 days of diarrhoea onset), met vaccine card quality metrics, had vaccine delivery dates if the child was reported to have received a rotavirus vaccine, and had a reported outcome of death or discharge. In-hospital acute gastroenteritis deaths were characterised, and rotavirus vaccine effectiveness against all-cause and rotavirus-positive acute gastroenteritis mortality was calculated using an unconditional logistic regression model with adjustment for national under-5 mortality strata and child's age. Vaccine effectiveness analyses against all-cause and rotavirus-positive acute gastroenteritis mortality were restricted to children aged at least 3 months who received any routine vaccines from countries reporting at least one acute gastroenteritis death. FINDINGS: From the MNSSTER-V dataset, we included 27 252 children younger than 5 years enrolled from 22 countries; outcomes of patients were not available for two countries. At least one in-hospital acute gastroenteritis death was reported from 16 countries including 21 522 children; in total, 183 all-cause acute gastroenteritis deaths and 25 rotavirus-positive deaths were reported. Among children aged at least 3 months who had received any routine vaccines, receiving at least one dose of a rotavirus vaccine had an adjusted vaccine effectiveness of 75·8% (95% CI 28·4 to 91·8; n=13 630) against rotavirus-positive acute gastroenteritis mortality and 20·8% (-47·0 to 57·3; n=20 005) against all-cause acute gastroenteritis mortality. INTERPRETATION: Rotavirus vaccines are effective in preventing rotavirus-positive acute gastroenteritis mortality. Continued efforts to improve vaccine delivery could help to reduce acute gastroenteritis mortality due to rotavirus worldwide. FUNDING: None.

Evaluation of the effects of domestic tomato processing on biopesticide residue using natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) extractions.

The present study evaluated the fate of fourteen botanical biopesticides in processed tomato samples. Various processing methods were employed, including washing, dehydration, and the preparation of juice and sauce. The extraction was performed using more sustainable techniques, aimed at minimizing the environmental impact of conventional organic solvents by substituting them with natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES). Solid-liquid extraction (SLE) and dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction with solidification of floating organic drop (DLLME-SFOD) were utilized for solid and liquid tomato samples, respectively. The NADES used was choline chloride:2,3-butanediol (ChClBt) at a 1:4 molar ratio for both techniques, resulting in recovery values ranging from 69.2 to 106.2% for SLE, and extraction efficiencies reaching up to 46.2% for DLLME-SFOD. The impact of these processes was evaluated employing the processing factor (PF), yielding PF values of less than 1 in all cases. Compounds as pyrethrins, azadirachtin, and rotenone persisted after processing, posing a potential consumer risk.

Reduced FOXP3 expression and its association with genetic ancestry in neuromyelitis Optica spectrum disorder: a Colombian cohort.

BACKGROUND: Autoimmune disorders are characterized by impaired immune tolerance, largely mediated by CD4⁺ regulatory T cells (Tregs), whose function depends on the transcription factor FOXP3. OBJECTIVES: To compare FOXP3 expression levels between patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and healthy controls from Bogotá, Colombia, and to explore their association with genetic ancestry. METHODS: FOXP3 expression was quantified from peripheral blood mononuclear cells using RNA-based analysis. Genomic ancestry proportions were estimated using ancestry-informative markers. RESULTS: FOXP3 mRNA expression was significantly reduced in NMOSD patients compared with controls (∼2.4-fold decrease in median expression; p = 0.027). Lower FOXP3 mRNA expression was associated with optic neuritis (p = 0.0059), but not with historical or current AQP4-IgG seropositivity. In a sensitivity analysis restricted to patients with documented historical AQP4-IgG seropositivity, the direction of reduced FOXP3 mRNA expression was preserved but did not reach statistical significance. In pre-specified exploratory ancestry-related analyses, African (p = 0.035) and Amerindian ancestry (p = 0.012) were associated with FOXP3 mRNA expression levels. CONCLUSIONS: Reduced FOXP3 mRNA expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) suggests an altered immune regulatory profile in NMOSD, potentially involving mechanisms beyond antibody-mediated immunity. The association between genetic ancestry and FOXP3 mRNA expression suggests that population-specific genetic background may influence immune regulatory pathways. These findings should be interpreted as exploratory and require validation in larger, clinically homogeneous cohorts.

Physical Appearance Anxiety and Eating Disorders Symptomatology: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

The present study aimed to assess the link between physical appearance anxiety (PAA) and eating disorder (ED) symptomatology by a meta-analysis of existing literature. Eligible studies were searched across six electronic databases up until November 20, 2025. Pooled effect sizes (r) were calculated using random-effects models. Potential variables that influence effect heterogeneity were analyzed by univariable and multivariable meta-regressions. Influence analyses and a three-parameter selection model (3PSM) were used to assess robustness of the results and publication bias. Twenty-seven effect sizes from 21 studies (N = 5261) were obtained. The results indicated a strong association (i.e., r = 0.559) between the two variables under consideration, which was notably stronger (i) among females compared to males; and (ii) for overall eating disorder symptoms rather than bulimic symptoms. The results of this study advocate for further investigation into the effectiveness of addressing anxiety responses related to personal body traits, particularly among females, within the context of preventing and treating eating disorders.

Proteomic profiling reveals that DPP4 overexpression increases cell adhesion, inhibits cell migration, and restores androgen sensitivity in prostate cancer.

Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4), a serine protease with both enzymatic and non-enzymatic roles, has emerged as a context-dependent modulator of tumor progression. In the present study, we investigated the expression and function of DPP4 in androgen-sensitive and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) models. Proteomic analysis of androgen-resistant prostate cells overexpressing DPP4 identified the involvement of the cellular adhesion molecules pathway. In prostate cells, lentiviral-mediated DPP4 overexpression restored androgen receptor signaling, inhibited epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and reduced cell migration, whereas DPP4 silencing produced the opposite effects. We demonstrate that DPP4 expression is down-regulated in CRPC cells and that treatment with capsaicin (CAP), a bioactive compound derived from red peppers, restores DPP4 expression. Moreover, DPP4 restoration by CAP suppresses prostate tumorigenesis in the TRAMP mice in vivo model of prostate cancer. Our results suggest that DPP4 could be a new target for CRPC.

Recovery of polysaccharides from marc and pomace through sequential extractions assisted by ultrasound, enzymes and acid maceration.

This study evaluated the pilot-scale recovery of polysaccharides from Vitis vinifera pomace/marc using sequential extraction strategies combining high-power ultrasound (UAE), enzymes (EAE), and acid maceration (AAE). Laboratory-scale trials identified optimal conditions for enzyme dosage and liquid/solid ratio (L/S). Pilot-scale trials demonstrated that the extraction sequence and the processing byproducts influenced extraction efficiency, total soluble polysaccharide in the extract (TSP), and polysaccharide composition. Post-maceration at pH 3.2, with/without the maximum enzyme dose after UAE in a L/S of 1.3/1, improved structural polysaccharide extraction from Viura pomace, while Tempranillo marc showed better recovery of pectic families and TSP with UAE + EAE. Separating grape pomace extract (UAE) from the post-maceration stage at pH 3.2 produced two extracts: E1, with higher yield (19.9%), enriched in structural polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, and E2, enriched in high and medium molecular weight pectic polysaccharides (58.03%), a low degree of esterification (17.1%) and more complex rhamnogalacturan structures.

External load metrics and monitoring in women's football match play: A systematic review.

This systematic review aimed to identify the most commonly used variables for monitoring external load during elite women's football matches and to compare reporting practices internationally and in Brazil. Searches were conducted in Web of Science, PubMed, and SciELO using the PICOS framework between February and March 2026, resulting in the inclusion of 35 studies. The main outcomes analysed were total distance covered (TD), distance covered across speed zones (HSR, VHSR, sprint), number of accelerations and decelerations, and maximum speed. TD and distance covered across speed zones were the most frequently reported indicators (94.3%), followed by HSR (82.8%) and sprint distance (68.5%). Considerable variability was observed in the classification of speed zones and thresholds used to define accelerations and decelerations, limiting comparisons between studies. External load values varied according to playing position and competition level, with international matches generally imposing greater demands than national competitions. Brazilian research remains limited and demonstrates notable methodological variability. This review proposes standardised speed and acceleration/deceleration thresholds based on the most recurrent ranges reported in the literature, supporting improved consistency in monitoring practices across elite women's football contexts.

A pragmatic randomized controlled trial of self-directed online writing interventions for posttraumatic stress symptoms in a real-world digital setting.

Background: Public health and other large-scale crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have intensified the global mental health burden, creating unprecedented demand for accessible interventions for posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS).Objective: We evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of two self-directed online writing interventions embedded within China's WeChat ecosystem during the COVID-19 pandemic through a pragmatic randomised controlled trial.Methods: Between December 2021 and August 2022, 1,526 adults were screened for PTSS via a Tencent Medinfo Mini-Program. Eligible participants (n = 211) were randomised to Guided Narrative Technique-Writing (GNT-W, n = 100) or Expressive Writing (EW, n = 111). Both interventions comprised three self-directed daily writing sessions delivered entirely online without human support. Primary outcome was PTSD symptom severity (PTSD Checklist-Short), assessed at baseline, post-intervention, 2-week, and 1-month follow-ups.Results: While initial engagement followed typical digital health patterns (64.5% overall attrition), participants who initiated treatment showed strong adherence (77% completion). Both interventions were associated with significant within-group reductions in PTSS severity (GNT-W: b = -0.43, p = .023, d = -0.43; EW: b = -0.60, p = .001, d = -0.58), with no significant between-group difference (group × time: b = 0.18, p = .48). GNT-W did not confer additional benefit over EW protocol on PTSS severity.Conclusions: Both self-directed writing interventions were associated with within-group reductions in PTSS; without an inactive control condition, however, these changes cannot be firmly attributed to the interventions. GNT-W showed no advantage over the simpler EW protocol. These findings offer preliminary support for embedding scalable, low-barrier writing interventions in widely used digital platforms.Chinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR2000034836.

Effects of Cognitive Behavioral Couple Therapy With Integrated Mindfulness on Mindful Attention, Depressive Symptoms, and Dyadic Adjustment in Low-Income Couples: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial.

Psychosocial distress can exacerbate marital conflict, maladjustment, and mental health vulnerability. This pilot randomized clinical trial examined cognitive-behavioral couple therapy (CBCT) integrated with mindfulness in low-income Brazilian couples (per-capita household income up to one minimum wage). Thirty-four participants (17 heterosexual couples) were randomized (independent computer-generated sequence) to an experimental (n = 16) or waitlist control group (n = 18). We assessed dyadic adjustment, mindful attention, marital social skills, and depressive symptoms (R-DAS, MAAS, IHSC, BDI-II) at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. The intervention was eight 80-min conjoint sessions plus daily home exercises. Time × group effects favored the experimental group for dyadic adjustment, mindful attention, and depressive symptoms (all p < 0.001, = 0.20-0.37), but not marital social skills (p = 0.14). Because two outcomes differed at baseline, effects were confirmed with baseline- and dependence-adjusted sensitivity analyses. These findings provide preliminary evidence that CBCT with mindfulness may benefit disadvantaged couples.

Five-year outcomes in a randomised controlled trial of prolonged exposure therapy and supportive counselling for post-traumatic stress disorder in adolescents: a task-shifted intervention.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive-behavioural therapies with a trauma focus are effective in reducing posttraumatic stress disorder and other psychological distress in adolescents. Long-term follow-up data on adolescents treated for PTSD remain scarce, with few studies extending beyond 12 months after treatment completion. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the maintenance of treatment gains in a comparative study of effectiveness of PE-A and SC up to 60 months post-treatment. METHOD: Sixty-three adolescents diagnosed with PTSD were randomly assigned to either treatment, provided by newly trained and supervised non-specialist health workers. The primary outcome measure was PTSD symptom severity, as independently assessed on the Child PTSD Symptom Scale (CPSS). We report on the 60-month post-treatment follow-up, building on post-treatment, 3-month, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month post-treatment data that have been published previously. RESULTS: Participants in both treatment groups maintained a significant reduction in PTSD symptoms up to 60-months post-treatment (F (7, 343) = 2.86, p < .01). Participants receiving prolonged exposure experienced greater improvement on the CPSS at all follow-up assessment timepoints, except for the 60-month FU (p = .28; g = 0.33). CONCLUSION: Adolescents with PTSD continued to maintain treatment gains up to 60-months post-treatment. These data, along with findings from the original RCT, indicate that a brief treatment protocol (averaging 9 sessions of PE-A or SC) in a LMIC, task-shifted to be delivered by nurses without prior psychotherapy experience, led to lasting improvements in PTSD and comorbid symptoms for up to five years. The sustained benefits and improved functioning over the first few years post-treatment support expanding both treatments, especially PE-A, in community settings.

Context matters: coordinated transcriptional regulation and root plasticity under multinutrient conditions.

Plants often encounter simultaneous imbalances in multiple nutrients, but the regulatory logic coordinating their responses remains poorly understood. We aimed to uncover shared transcriptional programs and regulatory nodes underpinning multinutrient adaptation in Arabidopsis thaliana roots. We analyzed publicly available RNA-seq datasets spanning 15 nutrient and beneficial element conditions using differential expression, co-expression network (WGCNA), and gene regulatory network analysis. Selected transcription factors (TFs) were validated via root phenotyping, suberin staining, and ionomic profiling under two-nutrient stress conditions. We identified a core set of 2050 genes responsive to multiple nutrient treatments, enriched for suberin biosynthesis, and structured into modular co-expression clusters. Eight prioritized candidate TFs (ARR10, GBF3, HHO5, NAC32, NF-YA3, NF-YB2, SARD1, and WRKY33) were shown to modulate root system architecture under specific nutrient combinations. WRKY33 and NF-YB2, in particular, regulated nutrient-responsive suberin deposition and ionomic plasticity. These findings reveal suberin remodeling as a shared downstream process in multinutrient responses and suggest that plasticity is not a fixed trait but a modular, polygenic, and context-dependent outcome. Repurposed TFs with pleiotropic functions coordinate structural and physiological traits, providing regulatory entry points for improving nutrient resilience.

Primary pulmonary salivary gland-type tumors in cytopathology practice: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Primary pulmonary salivary gland-type tumors (PSGTs) are rare but clinically significant tumors that originate from the submucosal glands of the tracheobronchial tree. Cytologic samples taken during bronchoscopy are a key component of preoperative evaluation. However, cytologic diagnosis remains challenging because of the submucosal growth and morphologic overlap of PSGTs. In addition, current knowledge of the cytohistologic correlation of PSGTs is fragmented. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of cytologic diagnoses of PSGTs. METHODS: A comprehensive, systematic literature search of the PubMed database was conducted to identify studies with cytologic and histologic diagnoses of PSGTs. Comprehensive data on diagnostic and clinical factors, when available, were collected for all individual patients. The data were tabulated in Microsoft Excel and analyzed using OpenMeta (Analyst) software. RESULTS: In total, 49 studies comprising 106 patients were identified. Final cytohistologic concordance was demonstrated in 48.1% of cases. Fine-needle aspiration showed the highest sensitivity (75.0%), followed by bronchial/tracheal washing (38.1%), and bronchial brushing (34.2%). Adenoid cystic carcinoma was the most common histologic subtype, accounting for 67 cases, followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma, which accounted for 27 cases. CONCLUSIONS: The cytologic diagnosis of rare PSGTs remains challenging. Overall, cytohistologic concordance was 48.1%. However, fine-needle aspiration demonstrated greater diagnostic accuracy than exfoliative cytology and may facilitate a more accurate preoperative assessment.
