Article Abstract

A genetic algorithm (GA)-based framework was developed to predict drug-drug interactions (DDIs) caused by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inhibition or induction in dogs and cats. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) ratios, obtained from published in vivo DDI studies, were used to calculate the following parameters: (a) the contribution ratio (CR), which represents the fraction of the dose of the victim drug metabolized via CYP3A, and (b) the inhibitory potency (inhibition ratio; IR) or inducing potency (IC) of the perpetrator drug. AUC ratios of 3 substrates, 4 inhibitors and 1 inducer of CYP3A in cats, and the AUC ratios of 10 substrates, 12 inhibitors and 3 inducers of CYP3A in dogs were successfully predicted and validated by the developed methodology within 50-200 % of observed values. This approach could represent a useful resource to predict the extent of DDIs in clinical scenarios requiring the simultaneous administration of a CYP3A substrate drug with a CYP3A perpetrator.

Postoperative aphasia (POA) is a common complication in patients undergoing surgery for language-eloquent lesions. This study aimed to enhance the prediction of POA by leveraging preoperative navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) language mapping and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based tractography, incorporating deep learning (DL) algorithms. One hundred patients with left-hemispheric lesions were retrospectively enrolled (43 developed postoperative aphasia, as the POA group; 57 did not, as the non-aphasia (NA) group).

Immunometabolic biomarkers of brain aging: Nonlinear association between neutrophil-to-HDL cholesterol ratio and cognitive decline in older adults.

Brain Behav Immun

September 2025

Department of Public Health Science, Graduate School and Transdisciplinary Major in Learning Health Systems, Graduate School, Korea University, Seoul, South Korea. Electronic address:

Background: Immune dysregulation and metabolic disturbances contribute to cognitive decline in aging populations. The neutrophil-to-HDL cholesterol ratio (NHR), an emerging immunometabolic biomarker, reflects systemic inflammation and vascular dysfunction. However, its role in predicting cognitive impairment in older adults remains unclear.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality; patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at particularly high risk, highlighting the need for reliable biomarkers for early detection and risk stratification. We investigated whether combining the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) improves CHD detection in T2DM. In this retrospective cohort of 943 T2DM patients undergoing coronary angiography, associations of SHR and SIRI with CHD were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic splines; robustness was examined with subgroup and sensitivity analyses.

Muratpaşa District Health Directorate, Antalya, Turkey.

BackgroundThis investigation aimed to determine the utility of postnatal, ultrasonographically-derived dimensions of the thymus and spleen as imaging indicators for the prediction of early-onset neonatal sepsis (EOS).Material and MethodIn this case-control study, 30 term neonates diagnosed with Early-Onset Sepsis (EOS), based on European Medicines Agency (EMA) criteria, were compared to 30 healthy, matched control neonates. All participants underwent ultrasonography to quantify thymic and splenic dimensions.

Background: Postoperative late recurrence (POLAR) after 2 years from the date of surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a unique surveillance and management challenge. Despite identified risk factors, individualized prediction tools to guide personalized surveillance strategies for recurrence remain scarce. The current study sought to develop a predictive model for late recurrence among patients undergoing HCC resection.
