Sex Hormones and the Risk of Nasal Polyps: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The pathophysiological roles of sex hormones in airway inflammation have drawn much attention recently. We aimed to explore the causal effect of sex hormones on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) via a Mendelian randomization (MR) study.

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.
