Risk Factor Analysis and Prognosis of Dysphagia in Craniocerebral Injury Patients: Implications for Targeted Nursing Strategies

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes the identification of independent risk factors for dysphagia in patients with craniocerebral injury and illustrates the development of a nomogram‐based prediction model. The model enables early risk stratification and supports targeted nursing and rehabilitation interventions to reduce dysphagia incidence and improve ...

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

The Brain‐Gut Axis in Parkinson's Disease Pathology

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Exposure to environmental toxins induces gut dysbiosis, increases intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, immune activation, and oxidative stress, promoting α‐syn misfolding and propagation. Brainstem DMV neurons exhibit α‐syn pathology, dysregulating neuronal excitability and vagal control of GI functions.

The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...

Unraveling Chronic Pain: From Mechanisms and Risks to Diagnosis and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Chronic pain arises through distinct molecular pathways categorized into nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic types. Nociceptive pain begins with TRP channel activation in peripheral nociceptors, signaling via Aδ‐ and C‐fibers through the spinal dorsal horn and spinothalamic tracts to the brain, regulated by descending inhibition and involving ...

The Glymphatic System and Meningeal Lymphatics: Current Understandings and Future Perspectives

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Brain waste clearance relies on the anatomical and functional integration of the glymphatic system and meningeal lymphatic vessels. Cerebrospinal fluid influx into the brain parenchyma occurs along periarterial spaces, a process driven by polarized aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) water channels on astrocytic endfeet.
