Article Abstract
Background: Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is a common complication of hyperthyroidism that can significantly impair quality of life. This study investigated the effects and mechanisms of Xiaoluo Wan (XLW), a traditional Chinese herbal prescription, in treating TAO.
Methods: The protective effects of XLW on the extraocular muscles were first examined in hyperthyroid rats. Network analysis strategies were applied to predict potential targets and therapeutic mechanisms associated with XLW. The expression of key genes and proteins was subsequently validated and analyzed in rats with hyperthyroidism.
Results: XLW alleviated the pathological changes in the extraocular muscles caused by hyperthyroidism. The network analysis identified 66 effective targets. The core targets of XLW against TAO included AKT1, PTGS2, BCL2, IL10, IL1b, CCL2, IFNG, IL6, MMP9, TGFB1, HIF1α, and TP53. Enrichment analysis suggested that the amelioration mechanisms of XLW may be linked to the HIF1 signaling pathway. In hyperthyroid rats, XLW reduced oxidative stress (OS) in extraocular muscle and inhibited the expression of HIF-1ɑ. Additionally, XLW exerted regulatory actions on the expression of various proteins closely linked to HIF-1α and OS.
Conclusions: XLW reduces injuries to extraocular muscles in hyperthyroidism, possibly by inhibiting OS via HIF1 signaling. This may provide novel insights into the pharmacological mechanism of XLW in treating TAO.

Background: Experience with icodextrin use in children on long-term peritoneal dialysis is limited. We describe international icodextrin prescription practices and their impact on clinical outcomes: ultrafiltration, blood pressure control, residual kidney function (RKF), technique and patient survival.
Methods: We included patients under 21 years enrolled in the International Pediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Network (IPPN) between 2007 and 2024, on automated PD with a daytime dwell.

B-lymphocytes play major adaptive immune roles, producing antibody and driving T-cell responses. However, how immunometabolism networks support B-cell activation and differentiation in response to distinct receptor stimuli remains incompletely understood. To gain insights, we systematically investigated acute primary human B-cell transcriptional, translational and metabolomic responses to B-cell receptor (BCR), Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), CD40-ligand (CD40L), interleukin-4 (IL4) or combinations thereof.

Language learning and use relies on domain-specific, domain-general cognitive and sensory-motor functions. Using fMRI during story listening and behavioral tests, we investigated brain-behavior associations between linguistic and non-linguistic measures in individuals with varied multilingual experience and reading skills, including typical reading participants (TRs) and dyslexic readers (DRs). Partial Least Square Correlation revealed a main component linking cognitive, linguistic, and phonological measures to amodal/associative brain areas.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a prevalent intestinal pathogen that significantly impacts both human and animal health. G83, isolated from giant panda feces, has demonstrated notable probiotic properties. In this study, C57BL/6 J mice were randomly divided into Control, ETEC, and G83 groups.

Purpose: The German sector-based healthcare system poses a major challenge to continuous patient monitoring and long-term follow-up, both essential for generating high-quality, longitudinal real-world data. The national Network for Genomic Medicine (nNGM) bridges the inpatient and outpatient care sectors to provide comprehensive molecular diagnostics and personalized treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Germany. Building on the established nNGM infrastructure, the DigiNet study aims to evaluate the impact of digitally integrated, personalized care on overall survival (OS) and the optimization of treatment pathways, compared to routine care.
