Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) enables non-invasive modulation of brain activity, holding promise for cognitive research and clinical applications. However, it remains unclear how the spiking activity of cortical neurons is modulated by specific electric field (E-field) distributions. Here, we use a multi-scale computational framework that integrates an anatomically accurate head model with morphologically realistic neuron models to simulate the responses of layer 5 pyramidal cells (L5 PCs) to the E-fields generated by conventional M1-SO tACS.

Objective: To develop and validate a prognostic nomogram for predicting the risk of proximal ureteral impacted calculi, supporting personalized clinical management.

Methods: This retrospective, multicenter study employed a continuous cohort of 391 patients with proximal ureteral stones treated between January 2021 and April 2024. Data from Longyan People's Hospital (affiliated with Xiamen Medical College) comprised the training set, while independent external validation was performed using data from The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Background: The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network is recognized for its significant role in cardiovascular diseases, yet its involvement in in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains unexplored. Our study aimed to investigate how this regulatory network influences ISR occurrence and development by modulating inflammation and immunity.

Methods: By utilizing data extracted from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, we constructed the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network specific to ISR.

Aspects of Genetic Diversity, Host Specificity and Public Health Significance of Single-Celled Intestinal Parasites Commonly Observed in Humans and Mostly Referred to as 'Non-Pathogenic'.

Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge on these organisms' impact on global health is very limited. The genera Blastocystis, Dientamoeba, Entamoeba, Endolimax and Iodamoeba comprise CLIPPs species, the life cycles of which, as opposed to single-celled pathogenic intestinal parasites (e.

Objective: The key molecular events signifying the -induced gastric carcinogenesis process are largely unknown.

Methods: Bulk tissue-proteomics profiling were leveraged across multi-stage gastric lesions from Linqu ( = 166) and Beijing sets ( = 99) and single-cell transcriptomic profiling ( = 18) to decipher key molecular signatures of -related gastric lesion progression and gastric cancer (GC) development. The association of key proteins association with gastric lesion progression and GC development were prospectively studied building on follow-up of the Linqu set and UK Biobank ( = 48,529).
