The Efficacy of Pharmacotherapy Intervention on Anthropometric Outcomes in Survivors of Childhood Brain Tumors: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

INTRODUCTION: Many survivors of childhood brain tumors face long-term adverse health outcomes like obesity. Uncertainties surround the effect of interventions to manage obesity-related outcomes in survivors of childhood brain tumors. The goal of this updated systematic review and meta-analysis was to provide the best estimate of the treatment efficacy of pharmacotherapy intervention on anthropometric outcomes in this pediatric population. METHODS: We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, and ProQuest for articles published from January 1, 2015, to January 31, 2025. A meta-analysis was performed using the generic inverse-variance method in RevMan 5.4. Heterogeneity was assessed using the Cochrane Q test and the I2 statistic. We used the GRADE approach to determine the certainty of evidence. RESULTS: A total of six studies met the inclusion criteria: four newly identified studies published after January 1, 2015 (125 participants), and two from the previously published review (23 participants). The pooled estimate showed no significant change in body mass index z-score after intervention (mean difference = -0.02; 95% CI: -0.06 to 0.02, I2 = 0%; 4 studies, 94 participants; low certainty of evidence). Similar pooled effects were observed across other outcomes; however, individual studies reported significant changes in some outcomes within the treatment groups after the intervention. CONCLUSION: Pharmacological agents showed no significant change in anthropometric outcomes for survivors of childhood brain tumors. Further trials are needed to assess the efficacy of pharmacological agents and to identify subgroups most likely to benefit.

Development and validation of a novel LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous quantification of fidaxomicin and metabolite (OP-1118) from feces for gut pharmacobiome studies.

Fidaxomicin is a first-line antibiotic for treating Clostridioides difficile infection. While it has low systemic absorption and reaches high colonic concentrations, it is hydrolyzed to a less active metabolite, OP-1118. Few studies have completely described critical experimental details of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for quantifying fecal fidaxomicin and OP-1118. This study developed and validated a simple, fast, and sensitive LC-MS/MS method to quantify fidaxomicin and OP-1118 in human and mouse feces. This method simplified fecal sample preparation without the use of solid phase extraction and optimized LC-MS/MS parameters. A broad working range (0.3-1000 ng/ml) in both diluted human and murine fecal matrices was achieved with good intra- and inter-day accuracy (93-107%), precision (1-7%), and recovery (70-105%) as well as little IS-normalized matrix effects. This method was utilized to quantify fidaxomicin and OP-1118 in human and murine fecal samples. This novel method was simple, fast, sensitive, and accurate in analyzing fecal fidaxomicin and OP-1118 and could be deployed to facilitate gut pharmacobiome research.

Genomic diversity and thermal niches of Aspergillus molds disrupting rind formation of surface-ripened cheeses.

Filamentous fungi play important roles in the development of surface-ripened cheese microbial communities and contribute to the aesthetics and flavors of these products. Much is known about the diversity and ecology of desirable cheese fungi, but our understanding of the natural history of cheese spoilage molds is limited. The goal of this work was to characterize the genomic diversity of Aspergillus species contaminating artisan cheeses and to identify how the abiotic environment of cheese (the substrate itself and temperature) may constrain the growth of Aspergillus. Comparative genomics identified two main species of Aspergillus, A. westerdijkiae and A. ostianus, as the spoilage molds across three different facilities in the Northeastern United States that experienced contamination events. Multiple genomic types of A. westerdijkiae were found across the different cheese production facilities, indicating that these contamination events are not caused by a single clonal strain. All A. westerdijkiae isolates produced ochratoxin A, but concentrations varied greatly across strains. RNA-sequencing of A. westerdijkiae on nutrient-rich lab media (malt extract agar) versus cheese curd agar identified a suite of pathways enriched in expression on cheese, including degradation of amino and fatty acids. Experiments measuring growth over a range of temperatures identified that spoilage Aspergillus species have a higher optimal growth temperature compared to desirable fungal species in cheese rinds and are outcompeted by Penicillium species at temperatures lower than 15°C. Global fungal metabarcoding databases suggest that A. westerdijkiae is not normally found in natural habitats of the Northeastern United States, and it may be introduced to this region.IMPORTANCEOver the past decade, disruptive contamination events of Aspergillus spoilage molds have occurred at cheese production facilities in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Vermont in the United States, causing aesthetic, flavor, and potential safety issues. Our work highlights independent introductions of different strains of A. westerdijkiae into multiple cheese facilities and suggests that temperature could be used to control the abundance of Aspergillus spoilage molds. Based on our analysis of the global distribution of A. westerdijkiae, it is not invading cheese facilities from local fungal populations and may be a contaminant in materials used for cheese production.

Comparison of clinical outcomes of robotic versus open pyeloplasty in infants under 6 months.

INTRODUCTION: Robotic pyeloplasties have become the popular approach for surgical repair of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) in the pediatric population. In infants less than 6 months old, there is concern for lack of intra-abdominal working space and lack of benefit compared to an open approach. Our aim was to compare the peri-operative and post-operative outcomes of patients undergoing open versus robotic pyeloplasty under six months of age. METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of patients less than six months of age undergoing robotic or open pyeloplasty between 2020 and 2024 at a single institution. Patient demographics and clinical outcomes were collected and compared. Surgical success was defined as a >50% reduction in the antero-pelvic diameter (APD) of the affected kidney at one year post pyeloplasty. RESULTS: A total of 32 patients were identified (16 robotic and 16 open), median age at surgery was 4 months old. There was no significant difference in length of hospital stay or narcotic usage between the two groups. The robotic cohort had a significantly longer operative time (209.5 min vs 142.5 min, p < 0.001) compared to the open cohort. There was no significant difference between post-operative complication or surgical success rates between the two groups. CONCLUSION: In this small series, robotic and open pyeloplasty both remain viable options for infants less than 6 months of age with equivalent surgical outcomes and lengths of hospital stay.

First Report of Fibromyxoma in a Greater Amberjack (Seriola dumerili) From Aquarium of Genoa.

In teleosts, mesenchymal tumours like fibromas are frequently observed, whereas their malignant counterparts, fibrosarcomas, occur only sporadically. In our study, an adult female greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) reared at the Aquarium of Genoa developed a slow-growing mass protruding from the ventral right side of the head. The tissue was firm and white greyish with localized cranial haemorrhaging on the external surface. Cut-section examination showed a homogeneous, dry, whitish and richly vascularized tissue layout. Tissue samples from the mass were stained with Masson's Trichrome, Alcian Blue-PAS (pH 2.5), and Toluidine blue for differential diagnosis. Microscopically, it was characterized by alternating collagenous spindle-cell septa and hypocellular metachromatic myxoid areas positive for acidic mucopolysaccharides and glycosaminoglycans. The absence of cellular atypia, mitotic activity and necrosis confirms the diagnosis of fibromyxoma. Documenting rare tumours in aquarium fish expands comparative pathology literature and highlights public aquaria as valuable research platforms for long-term health monitoring under controlled husbandry conditions.

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the incidence of calcaneal malunion after minimally invasive sinus tarsi approach (MIS-STA) in displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures (I-ACFs) and identified related descriptive factors of calcaneal malunion. METHODS: A retrospective review of 99 displaced I-ACFs treated with MIS-STA was conducted. Demographic data, pre-operative radiographs, and operative details were analyzed. Outcomes included numerical rating scale (NRS) pain scores at rest and during activities of daily living (ADL), Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) for ADL and radiographic parameters. Logistic regression was used to identify descriptive factors associated with malunion. RESULTS: Malunion occurred in 33/99 cases (33.3%). The significant descriptive factors were the initial Böhler angle < 0.5 °, time to surgery > 12.5 days, and Sanders type ≥ III. Malunion patients had significantly worse NRS and FAAM scores (p ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION: Calcaneal malunion after MIS-STA occurred in one-third of cases, with three descriptive factors identified and poorer outcomes observed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, Comparative retrospective study with binary logistic regression analysis.

Predictors of Efficacy Maintenance After Vunakizumab Discontinuation in Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis: A Post Hoc Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial.

BACKGROUND: Efficacy cannot be maintained in some psoriasis patients after biological discontinuation. This study aimed to explore predictors of efficacy maintenance after vunakizumab discontinuation in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS: This post hoc analysis used data from a phase III trial (NCT04839016); 291 patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who achieved 100% improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score at Week 52 were enrolled. Efficacy maintenance was defined as patients who maintained PASI 90 or PASI 100 after 20 weeks of vunakizumab discontinuation. RESULTS: There were 44.7% and 72.5% of patients with PASI 100 and PASI 90 maintenance, respectively. In the multivariate logistic regression model, body mass index (BMI) (odds ratio [OR] = 0.922, p = 0.024) and treatment interruption (OR = 0.550, p = 0.020) were independently associated with a lower possibility of PASI 100 maintenance; however, the association of family history of psoriasis and the first time of PASI 100 achievement with PASI 100 maintenance did not achieve statistical significance. Duration of psoriasis (OR = 0.972, p = 0.049) and treatment interruption (OR = 0.257, p < 0.001) were independently associated with a lower possibility of PASI 90 maintenance. Two nomograms for predicting PASI 90 and PASI 100 maintenance were constructed based on the multivariate models, which disclosed good calibration performance. CONCLUSIONS: PASI 90 and PASI 100 maintenance rates are 72.5% and 44.7% after 20 weeks of vunakizumab discontinuation in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. BMI, treatment interruption, and duration of psoriasis predict a lower possibility of efficacy maintenance after vunakizumab discontinuation.

Identification of elements determining KIR gene demethylation at the CD56-bright stage of NK cell development.

The variegated expression of the KIR family of class I MHC receptors generates specialized natural killer (NK) cells capable of allele-specific HLA recognition. Understanding the mechanism of KIR gene activation will lead to improved methods for the generation of fully functional NK cells. A central RUNX-binding site in the KIR proximal promoter is required for gene activation. RUNX proteins recruit ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins that generate 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and drive DNA demethylation. Assessment of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5hmC residues at four stages of NK cell development reveals deposition of 5hmC primarily in a CREB site next to the RUNX site at the CD56Bright stage but not the subsequent CD56Dim stage representing fully mature NK cells. KIR promoter demethylation is delayed relative to other lineage-associated genes, indicating a high threshold for KIR gene demethylation in developing NK cells, and a window of opportunity for RUNX/TET-dependent KIR gene activation in CD56Bright NK cells.

Effectiveness and usability of artificial intelligence-powered assistive technologies in Supporting daily activities of children with cerebral palsy: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the main cause of motor disabilities in childhood, necessitating innovative approaches to rehabilitation and assistive technology (AT). Simultaneously, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into devices to create more adaptive, personalized, and effective AT. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and usability of AI-powered assistive technologies designed to support daily activities and rehabilitation in children with CP. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and IEEE Xplore, were systematically searched, and 23 articles were included in the final analysis. Articles were identified, selected, and categorized into emerging thematic areas based on the primary function and application of the technology. RESULTS: Five key thematic topics were identified: 1) AI-driven motor rehabilitation and gait training for functional mobility; 2) intelligent assessment and monitoring systems for clinical decision support; 3) AI-supported communication, social interaction, and intention recognition tools; 4) gamified and virtual reality-based interventions to enhance engagement and usability; and 5) smart assistive systems supporting daily living and independent mobility. The findings demonstrate a strong trend toward the application of AI technologies in personalized, engaging, and data-driven interventions for children with CP. However, the field is predominantly in the proof-of-concept stage, with limitations including small sample sizes, lack of long-term clinical validation, challenges in user-centered design, and usability for children with CP. CONCLUSION: AI-powered assistive technologies hold significant potential for transforming the care of children with CP by enabling highly personalized and engaging interventions. To actualize this potential, future work must realize that practical application remains challenging owing to limited clinical validation, technological integration, and usability barriers for children with CP. Future research must prioritize user-centered design and multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure that AI and robotic advancements improve the usability and quality of life for children with CP.

Characterization of the Immune Response after Oral Cholera Vaccination (OCV) and Effects of Mycophenolate Mofetil on Priming of this Immune Response-A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug widely used by solid organ transplant recipients. Although it is known that MMF suppresses immune responses, its exact effects on specific vaccinations have not been investigated yet. Mucosal vaccinations are increasingly used, such as a cholera vaccination consisting of two oral immunizations (oral cholera vaccination; OCV). This study aimed to investigate the specific immunosuppressive effects of MMF use during the first dose of OCV in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial in healthy volunteers. Moreover, the study aimed to characterize the immune response provoked by OCV in detail. This randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind trial included 16 healthy volunteers, each receiving two doses of Dukoral® and an intranasal rechallenge. Outcome measures were serum antibody responses (IgA and IgG) and IgA levels in saliva. Additionally, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of participants were investigated for ex vivo cytokine production and expression of tissue-specific homing markers after OCV. There were considerable serum IgA and IgG responses after vaccination. MMF-treated volunteers still showed a significant cholera antibody response, though data suggest a potential suppression by MMF without reaching statistical significance. There was no substantial IgA response in saliva. Investigation of PBMCs from OCV-treated participants showed a Th2 skewing with increased ex vivo production of TNF, IL-2, IL-5, IL-13, and IL-22 compared to the placebo group. Taken together, this study provides a framework for future clinical pharmacology studies building on OCV as a challenge model and for further investigation of specific effects of MMF on mucosal vaccination responses.

Induced degradation of Ufd1 reveals regulation of cohesin by the VCP/p97Ufd1-Npl4 complex.

The AAA ATPase VCP/p97 has emerged as a critical regulator of ubiquitin and chromatin-associated processes but progress in understanding has been hampered by the complexity of p97 functions and the various p97 cofactors involved. Here, we combined ubiquitin profiling with acutely induced degradation of the Ufd1 subunit of the p97 ubiquitin adapter, Ufd1-Npl4, in human cells. We identified a set of chromatin regulators, HUS1, XRCC1, MORF4L1, and the cohesin subunit RAD21 as targets of p97Ufd1-Npl4 We find that RAD21 is ubiquitylated and targeted by p97Ufd1-Npl4 specifically in S phase to remove a subpopulation of cohesin from chromatin. Acute degradation of Ufd1 in S phase, after replication licensing is completed, impedes replication and leads to replication-associated DNA damage. Our findings suggest that a fraction of cohesin rings need to be removed by p97Ufd1-Npl4 from DNA to allow unhindered replication and reveal a critical function of p97 that ensures genome stability.

Construction of an infectious clone of Spodoptera frugiperda densovirus and its biological characteristics.

Densoviruses are highly pathogenic to their insect hosts and have great potential for biocontrol. Spodoptera frugiperda densovirus (SfDV) was isolated from diseased larvae of Spodoptera frugiperda, while its biological functions remain unclear. Herein, we successfully constructed an infectious clone of SfDV. The S. frugiperda larvae transfected with the infectious clone exhibited anorexia, stunted growth, and reduced activity. Histopathological analysis further showed that the epidermis, fat body and trachea were infected instead of muscle and midgut tissues. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that numerous virions of about 22 nm were distributed within both the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm of epidermal cells. Moreover, many virions were also found contained within vesicles in the cytoplasm. The replication kinetics of the rescued SfDV (rSfDV) was similar to that of the parental SfDV. The median lethal dose (LD50) and median lethal time (LT50) values of rSfDV were 6.63 × 107 viral genome copies (vgc), 5.23 d, respectively, which were also comparable to those of the parental SfDV. Taken together, the infectious clone of SfDV provides an important tool for further exploring the genome function, pathogenesis, and interactions with its hosts.

Watershed-scale risk assessment of cadmium contamination in Chinese cropland soils: Dual pathways of irrigation input and flood-driven transport.

Irrigation and flood events serve as critical pathways for the transport of cadmium (Cd) from industrial sources into cropland soils at the watershed scale, constituting a major driver of widespread Cd contamination in China's cropland soil. This study evaluated the risk of Cd contamination in cropland soils across China's nine major river basins at the watershed scale, focusing on the contributions of irrigation and flood events, and conducted a sensitivity analysis of key risk factors. The assessment was conducted within a framework that considered factors including hazard, exposure, and vulnerability. The results revealed that numerous watersheds in southeastern China are exposed to dual pressures of Cd contamination risks in cropland soils, driven by both irrigation practices and flood events. Watersheds categorized as High-High, High-Moderate, or Moderate-High risk, reflecting combined Cd contamination risks from irrigation and flood, are vital to China's grain production, contributing 67.1 % of the national cropland area and 66.4 % of the grain yield. The study suggests localized strategies for managing cropland soils Cd contamination risks from irrigation and flood at the watershed scale in China, alongside strengthened cross-regional collaboration in southeastern China.

The Meaning and Significance of Breastfeeding for Biological Mothers of Children with Cleft Lip and/or Palate.

INTRODUCTION: Given the functional, emotional, and symbolic challenges imposed by cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) on exclusive breastfeeding (EBF), mothers often experience early breastfeeding cessation with impacts on maternal identity and the mother-infant bond. This study aimed to explore the meanings, feelings, and experiences of mothers of children with CL/P regarding breastfeeding in the face of these adversities. METHODS: This qualitative study applied the Clinical-Qualitative Method as proposed by Turato. Six in-depth semistructured interviews were conducted with biological mothers of children with CL/P, recruited from a specialized craniofacial reference center in Brazil. Data were analyzed using a qualitative content analysis approach, grounded in psychodynamic concepts from the Medical Psychology theoretical framework. RESULTS: Based on the analysis of the collected material, three analytical categories were identified and constructed: (1) "Existential conflict regarding the inability to fulfill the ideal maternal role"; (2) "Duality between the need and the fear of caregiving"; and (3) "The anguish experienced between tangible and intangible support during breastfeeding."Conclusions:Although the inability to EBF in children with CL/P generates emotional distress, motherhood is reimagined through adaptive forms of care and bonding, highlighting gaps in institutional support and the need for more humanized, emotionally sensitive health practices.

Selective monitoring of trace-level catechin and myricetin in herbal and aqueous matrices using magnetic MIP-DSPME: Optimization via design of experiments.

A novel dispersive solid-phase microextraction approach utilizing a magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (MMIP) integrated with HPLC-UV detection was developed for the concurrent quantification of catechin and myricetin in herbal extracts and aqueous samples. The sorbent was engineered as a core-shell nanocomposite, consisting of a selective polymer layer deposited onto Fe3O4@SiO2-APTMS magnetic nanoparticles. Dual-template imprinting using catechin and myricetin generated complementary binding cavities within the polymer framework. Experimental variables influencing extraction were systematically screened and subsequently optimized. A Plackett-Burman design was first applied to identify the most influential factors, with pH and sorption time identified as the dominant variables. These parameters were subsequently fine-tuned using a central composite design, and the optimization process was completed in only 30 experimental runs. The sorption characteristics of the imprinted sorbent (MMIP) were compared with those of its non-imprinted counterpart (MNIP). The MMIP demonstrated markedly higher maximum binding capacities (Qmax), reaching 119.3 mg g-1 for myricetin and 112.1 mg g-1 for catechin, whereas the corresponding values for the MNIP were 32.55 and 32.08 mg g-1, respectively. Moreover, the affinity constants (KL = 0.760-0.950 L mg-1) were approximately 2.3-fold higher for the MMIP, confirming its stronger and more selective interactions with the target analytes. The selectivity coefficients for the targeted flavonoids relative to structurally related compounds, including ferulic acid, p-coumaric acid, melatonin, and curcumin, exceeded 3.5 for the MMIP, whereas the corresponding values for the MNIP were close to 1.1, demonstrating the high molecular recognition capability of the imprinted sorbent. Method validation demonstrated limits of detection (LODs) of 0.33-0.59 ng mL-1 and limits of quantification (LOQs) of 1.10-1.96 ng mL-1, and excellent linearity over the concentration range of 5.0-5500 ng mL-1 (R2 > 0.998). The method achieved recoveries of 93.96% to 105.69% with RSDs below 5.5%, while the preconcentration factors ranged from 209 to 229. Furthermore, the sorbent retained more than 95% of its extraction efficiency after four consecutive reuse cycles and more than 80% after six cycles, demonstrating excellent stability and reusability. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of six medicinal plant extracts and water samples, showing negligible matrix interference and superior sensitivity, selectivity, and operational simplicity compared with conventional solid-phase extraction methods.

Development and Validation of a Predictive Model for Identification of Cognitive Impairment Risk in Older Adults with Subjective Cognitive Decline：A Longitudinal Study.

BACKGROUND: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is a transitional state between objective cognitive impairment and cognitively intact mental status, providing a critical window for implementing preventive interventions to delay objective cognitive decline. AIMS: We aimed to develop a predictive model for SCD progression in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This model will facilitate the identification of risk factors and establishment of targeted interventions for community-based SCD management. METHODS: Data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) was utilized in this study, extracting 18 indicators. Potential predictors selected through univariate Cox regression and LASSO regression analyses were sequentially incorporated into a multivariable Cox regression model. A nomogram was constructed to establish a predictive model. Model validation encompassed Area Under Curve (AUC) metrics for discriminative capacity, complemented by quantitative assessments using calibration curve analysis for precision verification and decision curve analysis (DCA) for clinical utility evaluation. RESULTS: A total of 1099 older adults with SCD were included in the final analysis, of whom 114 (10.3%) developed MCI. Multivariable Cox regression identified residence, marital status, educational level, social participation, gait speed, and baseline cognitive function. The model demonstrated time-dependent AUC values of 0.885, 0.830, 0.839, and 0.836 in the training set when evaluating discriminative capacity at 2-, 4-, 7-, and 9-year, respectively. The predictive model showed excellent predictive ability according to AUC, calibration curve, and DCA. CONCLUSIONS: A predictive model was created to estimate the risk of developing MCI in older individuals with SCD, offering clinician-actionable intervention benchmarks for preventive care.
