There is scarce information about the occurrence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) from patients with typhoid fever. ⋯ This study showed the emergence of ESBL-harboring S. Typhi in patients with typhoid fever from Nigeria.

CTHRC1 is highly expressed in various cancers. ⋯ This study found that activation of CTHRC1 by HOXB9 induces angiogenesis by mediating FA metabolism. CTHRC1 may be a potential target for LUAD diagnosis.

Cervical cancer (CC), as a serious menace to the health of women, has long been one of the most lethal gynecologic neoplasms throughout the world. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) NR2F1-AS1 has been documented to exert crucial functions in many malignant tumors. Nonetheless, the function and molecular mechanism of NR2F1-AS1 in CC remain completely unknown. ⋯ These findings revealed that NR2F1-AS1 played a tumor suppressor role in CC by mediating the miR-642a-3p/NR2F1 axis.

While sarcopenia is an important clinical finding in individuals diagnosed with chronic heart failure (CHF), efforts to identify a reliable biomarker capable of predicting the overall muscular and functional decline in CHF patients have been unsuccessful to date. ⋯ These results suggest that circulating miR-1-3p levels are related to Akt/mTOR pathway activation and can offer valuable insight into the overall physical capacity and muscular integrity of CHF patients as a predictor of sarcopenia.

Low-grade inflammation is known to facilitate the development of hypertensive organ damage. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is a new inflammatory index based on circulating immune-inflammatory cells. ⋯ High SII values were independent predictors of the presence and severity of AOD in patients with newly diagnosed treatment-naive HTN. Considering the role of inflammation in HTN, the SII, which can be easily evaluated using blood parameters, can be an effective prognostic screening tool. (Rev Invest Clin. 2022;74(5):258-67).
