Background: Differential correlation networks are increasingly used to delineate changes in interactions among biomolecules. They characterize differences between omics networks under two different conditions, and can be used to delineate mechanisms of disease initiation and progression.
Results: We present a new R package, CorDiffViz, that facilitates the estimation and visualization of differential correlation networks using multiple correlation measures and inference methods. The software is implemented in R, HTML and Javascript, and is available at https://github.com/sqyu/CorDiffViz . Visualization has been tested for the Chrome and Firefox web browsers. A demo is available at https://diffcornet.github.io/CorDiffViz/demo.html .
Conclusions: Our software offers considerable flexibility by allowing the user to interact with the visualization and choose from different estimation methods and visualizations. It also allows the user to easily toggle between correlation networks for samples under one condition and differential correlations between samples under two conditions. Moreover, the software facilitates integrative analysis of cross-correlation networks between two omics data sets.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) impairs attention and executive function, often through disrupted coordination between cognitive and autonomic systems. While electroencephalography (EEG) and pupillometry are widely used to assess neural and autonomic responses independently, little is known about how these systems interact in TBI. Understanding their coordination is essential to identify compensatory mechanisms that may support attention under conditions of neural inefficiency.

Background: Synaptic dysfunction and synapse loss occur in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The current study aimed to identify synaptic-related genes with diagnostic potential for AD.
Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were overlapped with phenotype-associated module selected through weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and synaptic-related genes.

Introduction: Patients with advanced solid tumors may be considered for early phase clinical trials investigating the safety, tolerability, and dosing of experimental therapies. Optimizing participant selection is critical to maximize clinical benefit and meet trial endpoints with fewer participants. One in six participants does not meet routine life expectancy requirements (>3 months), highlighting the need for improved prognostication.

Background: Emerging evidence indicates that lactase-mediated histone lactylation can activate osteogenic gene expression and promote bone formation. However, the role of lactylation-related genes (LRGs) in osteoporosis (OP) remains unclear. This study aims to clarify the key roles of LRGs and the molecular mechanisms of related biomarkers in OP.

Purpose: Unhealthy behaviors can accelerate the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based integrated care program in modifying key unhealthy behaviors among CKD patients in rural Thailand and to assess the impact of these behaviors on the rate of kidney function decline.
Patients And Methods: This is a post-hoc analysis of the ESCORT-2 trial, which is a 3-year prospective cohort study that enrolled 914 patients with CKD stages 3-4 in rural Thailand.
