 To evaluate whether incorporating the radiomics, genomics, and clinical features allows prediction of metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC) and to develop a preoperative nomogram for predicting metastasis.  We retrospectively analyzed radiomics features of computed tomography (CT) images in 134 patients (62 in the primary cohort, 28 in the validation cohort, and 44 in the independent-test cohort) clinicopathologically diagnosed with CRC at Dazhou Central Hospital from February 2018 to October 2019. Tumor tissues were collected from all patients for RNA sequencing, and clinical data were obtained from medical records. A total of 854 radiomics features were extracted from enhanced venous-phase CT of CRC. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis was utilized for data dimension reduction, feature screen, and radiomics signature development. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to build a multiscale predicting model incorporating the radiomics, genomics, and clinical features. The receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, and decision curve were conducted to evaluate the performance of the nomogram.  The radiomics signature based on 16 selected radiomics features showed good performance in metastasis assessment in both primary [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.945, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.892-0.998] and validation cohorts (AUC = 0.754, 95% CI 0.570-0.938). The multiscale nomogram model contained radiomics features signatures, four-gene expression related to cell cycle pathway, and CA 19-9 level. The multiscale model showed good discrimination performance in the primary cohort (AUC = 0.981, 95% CI 0.953-1.000), the validation cohort (AUC = 0.822, 95% CI 0.635-1.000), and the independent-test cohort (AUC = 0.752, 95% CI 0.608-0.896) and good calibration. Decision curve analysis confirmed the clinical application value of the multiscale model.  This study presented a multiscale model that incorporated the radiological eigenvalues, genomics features, and CA 19-9, which could be conveniently utilized to facilitate the individualized preoperatively assessing metastasis in CRC patients.

Motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR) is a newly proposed pre-dementia syndrome. Several studies on the prevalence of MCR have been published; however, the data vary across studies with different epidemiological characteristics. Thus, this study aimed to quantitatively analyse the overall prevalence and associated epidemiological characteristics of MCR among older adults aged ≥ 60 years.

Prevalence of motoric cognitive risk syndrome among older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

This meta-analysis aims to estimate the global prevalence of bullying among nursing students during clinical practice and identify associated factors.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a genetically predisposed allergic inflammatory dermatosis with chronic, pruritic, and recurrent features. Patients with AD have dry and itchy skin, often accompanied by chronic eczematous lesions, allergic rhinitis, or asthma, which has a considerable impact on their daily lives. With advances in genome sequencing technology, it has been demonstrated that microorganisms are involved in this disease, and the microorganisms associated with AD are attracting considerable research attention. An increasing number of studies conducted in recent years have demonstrated that an imbalanced microbiome in AD patients has substantial impact on disease prognosis, and the causes are closely tied to various immune mechanisms. However, the involvement of microorganisms in the pathogenesis of AD remains poorly understood. In this paper, we review the advances in research on the immunological mechanisms of the skin microbiome, intestinal microbiome, and lung microbiome that are related to AD prognosis and immunotherapy protocols. It is hoped that this approach will lay the foundation for exploring the pathogenesis of and emerging treatments for AD.

Patho-immunological mechanisms of atopic dermatitis: The role of the three major human microbiomes.

Our study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the current status and dynamic trends of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence in Sichuan, the second most heavily affected province in China, and to explore future interventions.
