Identification of senescence‐related genes in Parkinson's disease reveals candidate therapeutic targets and pathological processes

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
At the genomic level, a large number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and aging‐related DEGs have been screened. Ten hub genes, such as IFNγ and IRF7, have been identified and shown potential value in the diagnosis of PD, holding promise as novel biomarkers to facilitate early and precise diagnosis.

Progestins Inhibit Interleukin-1β-Induced Matrix Metalloproteinase 1 and Interleukin 8 Expression via the Glucocorticoid Receptor in Primary Human Amnion Mesenchymal Cells

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Preterm premature rupture of membranes is a leading cause of preterm births. Cytokine induced matrix metalloproteinase1 and interleukin 8 production from amnion mesenchymal cells may contribute to fetal membrane weakening and rupture.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Gout in pregnancy: Obstetric and neonatal outcomes

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 349-355, April 2025.
Abstract Objective The pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes of pregnancies complicated by gout have yet to be evaluated in a population‐based study. We sought to evaluate the obstetric and neonatal outcomes in pregnant patients with gout using a national population database.

Evaluating predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate for adverse newborn outcomes among term‐births in northern Uganda: A cross sectional analytical study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 408-420, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Birth asphyxia is one of the leading causes of death for neonates worldwide. Lack of an objective cost effective test to predict poor newborn outcomes at birth affects the ability to respond appropriately. This study determined predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate in relation to adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods This

Optimal timing for induction of labor in normotensive women: A retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 365-371, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Labor induction is offered to reduce the risk of stillbirth at late term (41+0 to 41+6) but earlier induction in normotensive singleton pregnancies is supported by weak evidence. The aim of the present study was to investigate the optimal timing for induction in normotensive women.
