This cross-sectional study of 333 pregnant women in the post-pandemic period reveals a high prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and increased autoimmunity, with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection linked to lower TSH levels but vaccination showing no significant impact on thyroid parameters.
A national cross-sectional survey of Turkish hematologists reveals that while AI adoption in clinical and research settings is rapidly increasing, it is significantly outpacing structured training, institutional governance, and data safety protocols, highlighting an urgent need for hematology-specific policies and education to ensure responsible integration.
In a retrospective study of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and abnormal body weight treated with direct oral anticoagulants, women exhibited significantly higher fibrinogen and D-dimer levels than men, while endothelial and platelet-derived hemostatic biomarkers remained comparable between sexes.
This study demonstrates that engineered M13 phage nanobots, functionalized with a tumor-targeting antibody and loaded with Rose Bengal photosensitizers, effectively reduce neoplastic burden in both murine xenografts and human ovarian cancer models by precisely delivering the payload to EGFR-expressing cells for light-triggered photoablation.
This cluster-randomised trial in Ghana demonstrates that five rounds of community-wide dihydroartemisinin–piperaquine mass drug administration significantly reduced malaria parasite prevalence by 94%, lowered reinfection risk, and improved haemoglobin outcomes in a moderate-to-high transmission setting without serious adverse events.
This nationwide ecological study reveals that AIDS incidence among older adults in Brazil increased significantly between 2001 and 2022, with pronounced regional disparities and spatial clustering that underscore the urgent need for targeted, age-specific prevention and healthcare strategies.
This study evaluates public awareness of newborn screening and hereditary disorders in India through a nationwide survey, revealing significant knowledge gaps that necessitate policy-driven strategies and targeted educational initiatives to improve early detection and reduce the long-term health burden.
This prospective cohort study of Chinese middle-aged and older adults reveals that persistent and worsening depressive symptom trajectories are associated with more than double the risk of developing incident cardiometabolic multimorbidity compared to low and decreasing symptom patterns.
This study demonstrates that puberty is associated with a significant and accelerated decline in kidney function (eGFR) among children with chronic kidney disease, including those with early-stage disease, a trend observed across both sexes and not solely attributable to pubertal changes in muscle mass.
This retrospective study demonstrates that a modified disposable surgical drape significantly outperforms conventional reusable cloth drapes in robotic radical prostatectomy by reducing weight, lowering costs by 49%, and eliminating peri-incisional bacterial contamination.
