Article Abstract
Objective: Hypertension refers to the elevated blood pressure (BP) in arteries, with a BP reading of 140/90 mm Hg or higher in adults. Over 40% of >25-year-old population have suffered from hypertension. Thus, this study aimed to find novel diagnostic biomarkers for hypertension.
Methods: All hypertension-related mRNA and methylation datasets were downloaded from the GEO database. Liner model method was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between hypertension and control groups. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis was employed to obtain functional information. CpG sites and the corresponding genes associated with hypertension were screened using epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) analysis.
Results: There were 37 DEGs between the hypertension group and control group, which were significantly enriched in 84 Biological Process terms, 31 Cellular Component terms, 18 Molecular Function terms and 9 signalling pathways. EWAS results indicated that 1072 CpG sites were associated with hypertension occurrence, corresponding to 1029 genes. After cross-analysis, complement factor D (CFD) and OTU deubiquitinase, ubiquitin aldehyde binding 2 (OTUB2) with methylation modification were identified as diagnostic markers for hypertension.
Conclusion: In conclusion, CFD and OTUB2 were potential biomarkers of hypertension occurrence. Our results will provide more information for hypertension diagnosis and would be more reliable combined with multiple biomarkers.

Intraindividual Optic Nerve Sheath Variation and Intracranial Pressure Changes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal.
Background And Purpose: To review the existing evidence on multiple timepoint assessments of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) as an indicator of intraindividual variation of intracranial pressure (ICP).
Methods: A systematic search identified studies assessing intraindividual variation in ICP through multiple timepoint measurements of ONSD using ultrasonography. Meta-analysis of studies assessing intraindividual correlation coefficients between ONSD and ICP was performed using a random effects model, and we calculated the weighted correlation coefficient for the expected change in ICP associated with variations in ONSD.

Objective: This study analyzed data from the US population to examine how oral microbiome diversity and diet quality individually and synergistically affect frailty.
Methods: This study included 6,283 participants aged 20 years or older from the 2009-2010 and 2011-2012 NHANES cycles. A frailty index (FI) consisting of 36 items was developed, with items related to nutritional status excluded.

Introduction: We investigated the associations between diabetes (type 2), hypertension and hypercholesterolemia with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnoses by race-ethnicity and sex.
Methods: Data (n = 22,950) were derived via the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between each comorbid condition and MCI and AD.

Background: Intracranial meningiomas are the most common benign central nervous system tumors, often managed with elective surgical resection. While outcomes are generally favorable, postoperative management remains variable, particularly regarding routine Intensive-Care Units (ICU) admission. Given increasing pressure on critical care resources, identifying patients who truly require ICU-level monitoring is essential.
