Patient-centered assessment of treatment for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency: literature review to identify concepts and measures for people with alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency by Ekin Seçinti, Karolina Schantz, Laure Delbecque, John Krege, Rikki Mangrum, Sarah E. Curtis

“…A limited number of PROMs have been used in research on AATD or in clinical trials of treatment, including COPD-specific measures that assess symptoms and quality of life and measures of mood, sleep, and general physical and psychosocial functioning. The current study documented the available evidence and compiled a list of potential concepts of interest, but further qualitative and quantitative studies will be needed to understand the outcomes that matter to people with AATD and to evaluate the alignment between these outcomes and available measures.…”

mNSF: multi-sample non-negative spatial factorization by Yi Wang, Kyla Woyshner, Chaichontat Sriworarat, Genevieve Stein-O’Brien, Loyal A. Goff, Kasper D. Hansen

“…Through simulations and real data analysis, we demonstrate mNSF’s efficacy in identifying true factors, shared anatomical regions, and region-specific biological functions. mNSF’s performance is comparable to alignment-based methods when alignment is feasible, while enabling analysis in scenarios where spatial alignment is unfeasible. mNSF shows promise as a robust method for analyzing spatially resolved transcriptomics data across multiple samples.…”

Does robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty have a role to play in large deformities? by Vermorel Pierre-Henri, Ciccullo Carlo, De Berardinis Luca, Gigante Antonio Pompilo, Neri Thomas, Philippot Rémi

“…Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for patients with a large preoperative deformity (more than 10° varus or valgus) remains a challenge leading to a high rate of outliers, unsatisfactory functional results, or early prosthetic loosening. Robotic arm-assisted TKA (RATKA) has shown improvements in implant positioning accuracy. …”

Electric field variations across DLPFC targeting methods in TMS therapy for Alzheimer’s disease by Nianshuang Wu, Yuxuan Shao, Zhen Wu, Shuxiang Zhu, Penghao Wang, Ziyan Zhu, Cheng Zhang, Changzhe Wu, Xiaolin Huo, Hua Lin, Guanghao Zhang

“…Optimal coil orientation exhibited directional specificity: parallel alignment with the LOI E-field produced higher field intensity in the functional target compared to the anatomical target (AD patients: P < 0.001; HCs: P = 0.052), while perpendicular orientation maintained functional stability with reduced anatomical interference (both groups: P < 0.001). …”

Two-way transcriptome approach for the identification of common gene targets across four insect orders and its validation in Oxycarenus laetus by Julie Rebecca Joseph Mathari, Habeeb Shaik Mohideen

“…A total of 104 publicly available RNA-Seq datasets, representing 17 pest species were de novo assembled in two ways, first was classified by read length (PE100 and PE150) and secondly as species-specific transcriptomes, and their qualities were assessed (alignment ≥ 90%, BUSCO ≥ 80%). Functional annotation utilizing insect-specific databases and orthology-based filtering identified three highly conserved genes, namely Arginine kinase (ArgK), Ryanodine receptor (RyR), and Serine/Threonine Protein phosphatase (STPP). …”
