Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

The Alpha‐1 Pi*MZ Genotype Is an Independent Risk Factor for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development in Patients With ACLD

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency is a genetic disease that affects the lungs and the liver. The role of the heterozygous genetic defect in the development of liver cancer in patients with cirrhosis is unclear. Our study found that carrying the Pi*MZ genotype increases the risk of developing liver cancer.

What Difference Does Language Make? Comparing Systematic Evidence Reviews of Vietnamese and English Language Literatures on Climate Change and the Health of Outdoor Workers

Area, EarlyView.
Short Abstract This paper compares two systematic literature reviews—one in English and one in Vietnamese—to examine how language shapes the production and framing of knowledge on climate change and health. It highlights significant differences in methods, assumptions and policy framings, and argues that linguistic boundaries are not just technical ...
