Distinct Microbial and Host Proteome Signatures Relate to Proteolytic Activity in Gingival Crevicular Fluid in an Exploratory Study of Patients With Periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Risk assessment tools for periodontitis lack sufficient precision to predict disease progression. The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate proteolytic activity (PA) in gingival crevicular fluid in relation to clinically assessed progression risk, microbial community composition and host proteome.

AI‐Assisted Literature Mining Reveals Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity and Progression Trajectories of Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndromes in Coronary Heart Disease in China

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the centrality of syndrome differentiation in guiding personalized traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) interventions for coronary heart disease (CHD), existing studies of TCM syndrome distribution are constrained by fragmented methodologies and limited spatiotemporal resolution. In this study, we employed an artificial intelligence (AI)‐
