Article Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the current status of disease-related knowledge and to analyze the relationship among the general condition, illness perception, and psychological status of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted on 118 patients using convenience sampling. The general questionnaire, disease-related knowledge questionnaire of COVID-19, Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ), and Profile of Mood States (POMS) were used to measure the current status of participants.
Results: The overall average score of the disease-related knowledge of patients with COVID-19 was (79.19 ± 14.25), the self-care situation was positively correlated with knowledge of prevention and control ( = 0.265; = 0.004) and total score of disease-related knowledge ( = 0.206; = 0.025); the degree of anxiety was negatively correlated with the knowledge of diagnosis and treatment ( = -0.182; = 0.049). The score of disease-related knowledge was negatively correlated with negative cognition (volatility, consequences, emotional statements) and negative emotions (tension, fatigue, depression) ( < 0.05); positively correlated with positive cognition (disease coherence) and positive emotion (self-esteem) ( < 0.05).
Conclusions: It was recommended that we should pay more attention to the elderly and low-income groups, and increase the knowledge about diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 and self-care in the future health education for patients.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requires effective management that often depends on the knowledge level of primary family caregivers. This study assessed caregiver knowledge using a validated scale and identified key factors associated with higher COPD knowledge. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from April 2020 to January 2024 at a tertiary hospital in Southwest China.

Introduction: Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) have been proven to play crucial roles in various biological processes such as development, stress responses, virulence, and pathogenicity. However, to the best of our knowledge, none of the currently available databases can store, manage, and analyze the vast amounts of sncRNA sequencing data. A comprehensive web-based platform for the integration and analysis of sncRNAs in fungi and their potential functions is still lacking.

Background: Hyperuricemia (HUA), found widely in humans and birds, is a key physiological factor responsible for the development of gout. In recent years, the relationship between the gut microbiota and HUA has garnered significant attention from researchers. This study aims to explore the current research hotspots, knowledge gaps, and future research trends regarding the gut microbiota and HUA.

Despite recent advances in understanding the vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and decline, many gaps exist in our collective knowledge. The 2022 Annual Workshop of the Albert Research Institute for White Matter and Cognition brought together investigators in the fields of neurovascular function and health, blood-brain barrier integrity, neurodegeneration, cerebral microvascular function, brain imaging, integrative systems neuroscience, and clinicians to discuss exciting and novel findings on how the vasculature contributes to progression of dementia.

: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogenous group of disorders characterised by an association of inflammatory and fibrotic abnormalities of the lung. Acute respiratory failure (ARF) may represent the initial picture of the disease. This study aims to highlight the diagnosis of ILD in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to describe the epidemiological, prognostic, and imaging features of patients diagnosed for the first time with ILD in the ICU.
