ABSTRACT Background Sarcopenia severely affects the physical health of the elderly. Currently, there is no specific drug available for sarcopenia. This study aims to identify pathogenic proteins and druggable targets for sarcopenia through Mendelian randomization (MR)–based analytical framework.

ccm2-like is required for cardiovascular development as a novel component of the Heg-CCM pathway
The Heart of Glass-Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (Heg-CCM) pathway is essential for normal cardiovascular development in zebrafish and mouse. In zebrafish, the Heg-CCM pathway mutants santa(ccm1/san), valentine (ccm2/vtn), and heart of glass (heg) exhibit severely dilated hearts and inflow tracts and a complete absence of blood circulation.

CCM1 and CCM2 variants in patients with cerebral cavernous malformation in an ethnically Chinese population in Taiwan [PDF]
AbstractCerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular malformation characterized by clustered enlarged capillary-like channels in the central nervous system. The genes harboring variants in patients with CCM includeCCM1/Krev interaction trapped-1,CCM2/MGC4607, andCCM3/programmed cell death protein 10.

Mosaic RAS/MAPK variants cause sporadic vascular malformations which respond to targeted therapy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sporadic vascular malformations (VMs) are complex congenital anomalies of blood vessels that lead to stroke, life-threatening bleeds, disfigurement, overgrowth, and/or pain.

Quality Assessment of Hydrogeomorphological Features Derived from Digital Terrain Models [PDF]
Digital terrain models (DTM) provide a model for representing the continuous earth elevation surface that can contain errors introduced by the main phases of generation and modelling. Uncertainty of the model is rarely considered by users.

The atmospheric ‘cold blob’ over Fennoscandia from October 2023 to January 2024
Between October 2023 and January 2024, a persistent region of cold air prevailed over Fennoscandia. While these 4 months were the warmest on record globally, they were all colder than normal in Fennoscandia, in stark contrast to the surrounding mid‐ and high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere.

Using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) to calibrate probabilistic surface temperature forecasts over Iran [PDF]
Using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA), an attempt was made to obtain calibrated probabilistic numerical forecasts of 2-m temperature over Iran. The ensemble employs three limited area models (WRF, MM5 and HRM), with WRF used with five different ...

Defective autophagy is a key feature of cerebral cavernous malformations
Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a major cerebrovascular disease affecting approximately 0.3–0.5% of the population and is characterized by enlarged and leaky capillaries that predispose to seizures, focal neurological deficits, and fatal ...
