Subpar reporting of pre‐analytical variables in RNA‐focused blood plasma studies
Pre‐analytical variables strongly influence the analysis of extracellular RNA (cell‐free RNA; exRNA) derived from blood plasma. Their reporting is essential to allow interpretation and replication of results. By evaluating 200 exRNA studies, we pinpoint a lack of reporting pre‐analytical variables associated with blood collection, plasma preparation ...

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance
In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...

Social disparities in the epidemiology and treatment of substance-related use disorders in the United States, 2002-16 [PDF]
Although substance use disorders have long been considered a public health problem, new developments in the supply, trade, and misuse or abuse of substances have prompted researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to cast a more critical eye towards ...

Self-Wiring of Neural Networks [PDF]
In order to form the intricate network of synaptic connections in the brain, the growth cones migrate through the embryonic environment to their targets using chemical communication. As a first step to study self-wiring, 2D model systems of neurons have been used. We present a simple model to reproduce the salient features of the 2D systems.

Prostate cancer is a leading malignancy with significant clinical heterogeneity in men. An 11‐gene signature derived from dysregulated epithelial cell markers effectively predicted biochemical recurrence‐free survival in patients who underwent radical surgery or radiotherapy.

Predicting Individual Substance Abuse Vulnerability using Machine Learning Techniques [PDF]
Substance abuse is the unrestrained and detrimental use of psychoactive chemical substances, unauthorized drugs, and alcohol. Continuous use of these substances can ultimately lead a human to disastrous consequences. As patients display a high rate of relapse, prevention at an early stage can be an effective restraint.

Generalized Cubic Model for BaTiO$_3$-like Ferroelectric Substance [PDF]
We propose an order-disorder type microscopic model for BaTiO$_3$-like Ferroelectric Substance. Our model has three phase transitions and four phases. The symmetry and directions of the polarizations of the ordered phases agree with the experimental results of BaTiO$_3$.

MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for
