Article Abstract
Background: The study aimed to investigate the association of IL-6 and IL-10 polymorphisms with susceptibility to glaucoma by analyzing all relevant individual studies.
Materials And Methods: Relevant articles were gathered from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, WanFang, and CNKI databases up to 15 October 2023. Odds ratios (ORs) were used to evaluate the association strengths, along with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Results: Seven case-control studies involving 1408 cases and 1789 controls on the IL-6 -174 G>C polymorphism, and three studies with 675 cases and 1100 controls on the IL-6 -572 G>C were included. Moreover, three separate studies, each comprising 442 cases and 672 controls, investigated the IL-10 -592C>A, -819T>C, and -1082A>G polymorphisms. The combined data indicated a significant association between -592C>A, -819T>C, and -1082A>G at IL-10 gene and IL-6 -572 G>C with glaucoma susceptibility, with no correlation found for IL-6 -174 G>C.
Conclusions: The study found that IL-10 -592C>A, -819T>C, -1082A>G, and IL-6 -572 G>C polymorphisms were linked to glaucoma risk. However, no significant association was observed for IL-6 -174 G>C. These findings imply a possible connection between genetic variations in these genes and glaucoma risk. Further research is crucial to fully understand the underlying mechanisms and their significance in managing and preventing glaucoma.

Background: Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is an autoinflammatory disease caused by a gain-of-function mutation in the gene, which regulates inflammasome-mediated interleukin-1β (IL-1β) production. This leads to recurrent episodes of fever, rash, and arthritis, typically beginning in childhood.
Objective: To demonstrate the role of a missense mutation, c.

Background: Dietary patterns influence psychological health, systemic inflammation, and gut microbiota composition in colon cancer patients. This study evaluates the associations of the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) score and the Dietary Index for Gut Microbiota (DI-GM) with psychological outcomes, inflammatory markers, gut microbiota diversity (Shannon index) and composition (Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio), and tumor biomarkers in colon cancer patients.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 630 colon Cancer patients.

Microglia, the central nervous system's resident macrophages, are critical for immune defense, protecting neurons during infection. Their role in postnatal brain development, particularly after injury, remains unclear. Nucling, a protein up-regulated during cardiac muscle differentiation, regulates NF-κB, influencing apoptosis and cell proliferation.

The Brucella abortus A19 attenuated live vaccine poses potential infection risks during practical applications and interferes with serological diagnostics, thereby affecting quarantine measures and the establishment of disease-free zones. Consequently, this study aimed to reduce its potential virulence, enhance its protective efficacy and differentiate it from wild-type strains by knocking out the immunosuppressive virulence gene btpB in the A19 strain. Using homologous recombination, we successfully obtained the A19ΔBtpB deletion strain.

Objectives Background: Monocyte anisocytosis (monocyte distribution width [MDW]) has been previously validated to predict sepsis and outcome in patients presenting in the emergency department and mixed-population ICUs. Determining sepsis in a critically ill surgical/trauma population is often difficult due to concomitant inflammation and stress. We examined whether MDW could identify sepsis among patients admitted to a surgical/trauma ICU and predict clinical outcome.
