Achieving Optimal Health With Host‐Directed Therapies (HDTs) in Infectious Diseases—A New Horizon

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Host‐directed therapies (HDTs) represent a transformative approach in infectious disease management by targeting host factors to enhance immune responses and inhibit viral replication. This innovative strategy leverages advanced genomics and gene editing technologies, offering promising avenues for improved patient outcomes and a new horizon in ...

Maximum likelihood and pseudo score approaches for parametric time-to-event analysis with informative entry times [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 2, 726-746, 2014
We develop a maximum likelihood estimating approach for time-to-event Weibull regression models with outcome-dependent sampling, where sampling of subjects is dependent on the residual fraction of the time left to developing the event of interest. Additionally, we propose a two-stage approach which proceeds by iteratively estimating, through a pseudo ...

The Antiviral Efficacy and Safety of Azvudine in Hospitalized SARS‐CoV‐2 Infected Patients with Liver Diseases Based on a Multicenter, Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Azvudine shows benefits in reducing all‐cause mortality in hospitalized SARS‐CoV‐2 infected patients and liver diseases. COVID‐19 patients with kidney disease and without autoimmune diseases show a preference for azvudine. Azvudine may be a promising antiviral agent for treating COVID‐19 concomitant with liver diseases.

FGF2 Mediated USP42‐PPARγ Axis Activation Ameliorates Liver Oxidative Damage and Promotes Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
USP42 is identified as a novel DUB of PPARγ in hepatocytes. USP42 mediated PPARγ deubiquitylation determines its transcriptional preference on proliferative and redox balance genes. USP42 knockdown exacerbates liver damage and delays regeneration. FGF2 is the upstream signal that initiates and activates the USP42‐PPARγ axis.

A comprehensive review of prognostic scoring systems to predict survival after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt placement

open access: yesPortal Hypertension & Cirrhosis, 2022
Patient prognosis after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement is relatively poor and highly heterogeneous; therefore, a prognostic scoring system is essential for survival prediction and risk stratification.
