Background: Sepsis is a deadly disease worldwide. Effective treatment strategy of sepsis remains limited. There still was controversial about association between preadmission metformin use and mortality in patients with diabetes. We aimed to assess sepsis-related type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who were non-metformin users. Methods: The T2DM included from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care -III database. Outcome 30-day mortality. used multivariable Cox regression analyses calculate adjusted...

miRNAs have recently been shown to play a significant role in human aging. However, data demonstrating the effects of aging-related mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are limited. We observed that hMSC differentiation decreased with also identified miR-10a expression was significantly age by comparing miRNA hMSCs derived from young and aged individuals. Therefore, we hypothesized downregulation may be associated capability Lentiviral constructs were used up- or downregulate old hMSCs....

The non-detection of periodicity related to rotation challenges the magnetar model for fast radio bursts (FRBs). Moreover, a bimodal distribution burst waiting times is widely observed in hyper-active FRBs, significant deviation from exponential expected stationary Poisson processes. By combining epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) earthquake and rotating vector (RVM) involving orientations spin magnetic axes, we find that starquake events modulated by FRB-emitting can explain FRB...
