UnknownGenome-Wide Analysis of Human Metapneumovirus Evolution.
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) has been described as an important etiologic agent of upper and lower respiratory tract infections, especially in young children and the elderly. Most of school-aged children might be introduced to HMPVs, and exacerbation with other viral or bacterial super-infection is ...

UnknownThe Association between Low Muscle Mass and Hepatic Steatosis in Asymptomatic Population in Korea.
An association between low muscle mass and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been suggested. We investigated this relationship using controlled attenuation parameter (CAP). A retrospective cohort of subjects had liver FibroScan® (Echosens, Paris, France) and bioelectrical impedance analys...

UnknownThe Kynurenine Pathway and Mediating Role of Stress in Addictive Disorders: A Focus on Alcohol Use Disorder and Internet Gaming Disorder.
Stress plays an important role in the pathophysiology of addictive disorders. The kynurenine (KYN) pathway involved in neuroimmune and cognitive functions is activated under stress. However, the neuroimmunological-neurocognitive mechanisms in the role of stress in addictive disorders are unclear sti...

UnknownPsychiatric disorders converge on common pathways but diverge in cellular context, spatial distribution, and directionality of genetic effects.
Psychiatric conditions share common genes, but mechanisms that differentiate diagnoses remain unclear. We present a multidimensional framework for functional analysis of rare copy number variants (CNVs) across 6 diagnostic categories, including schizophrenia (SCZ), autism (ASD), bipolar disorder (BD...
