Prospective cohort study

  1. Pregnancy in familial hypercholesterolemia needs individualized care
    Explore tailored management strategies for familial hypercholesterolemia in pregnancy, addressing evidence gaps and the need for stage-specific, individualized approaches to optimize maternal and.
  2. Tongue swab PCR showed high accuracy for pulmonary tuberculosis
    Rapid PCR testing on tongue swabs shows promise for tuberculosis diagnosis in sputum-scarce patients, with high specificity but limitations in detecting low bacillary loads.
  3. Cyclophilin A was higher before and during preeclampsia
    Serum cyclophilin A concentrations are elevated in women with preeclampsia across pregnancy trimesters, with higher levels in early-onset disease, suggesting a role in pathogenesis.
  4. RIRS and mini-PCNL were similarly effective for high-density pediatric kidney stones
    Prospective randomized trial comparing flexible ureterorenoscopy and mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy for pediatric renal pelvic stones under 2 cm with high density, showing comparable efficacy.
  5. Urinary calcium-to-citrate ratio may help predict stone risk in very young children
    Urinary calcium-to-citrate ratio demonstrates moderate discriminatory power for kidney stone risk in infants and toddlers, with a threshold of 0.23 mg/mg indicating elevated lithogenic potential.
  6. Nine-month oral TB regimens showed durable three-year outcomes
    Nine-month all-oral TB regimens show 89.5% durable three-year cure rates but persistent linezolid neuropathy affects 22.6% of patients, raising safety concerns.
  7. tNGS accurately detected tuberculosis and drug resistance in non-sputum samples
    Nanopore-based targeted sequencing demonstrates 93% sensitivity and specificity for detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis and drug resistance from non-sputum specimens in multicenter Chinese study.
  8. Women reported adverse experiences after conversion to general anesthesia
    Qualitative study examining women's experiences of general anesthesia conversion during cesarean delivery with inadequate neuraxial anesthesia and psychological outcomes.
  9. Reasoning-based LLMs may predict antidepressant response
    Study evaluates reasoning-based large language models for predicting 12-week remission in depressive disorder patients undergoing antidepressant monotherapy.
