BBB model, one of the most popular in vitro models, has been made for studying chronic degenerative diseases for many decades. It can be constructed simply in a culture dish, or a more complicated model such as organ-on-a-chip. Regenerative Medicine gives chances for treating this disease without knowing its formation reasons. iBMEC differentiation protocol has been improved for many years and several 2D and 3D iBMEC BBB models have been made. Besides iMBEC, iPSC-derived neural stem cells (iNSC) are also popular topics for studying chronic degenerative diseases since they have the potential to efficiently improve the motor and brain function of the patients with chronic degenerative diseases. This paper introduces and discusses the contributions of BBB models, iPSC-induced brain nerve cells including (i)BMEC and (i)NSCs, out of which (i)NSCs brain nerve cells are induced in vitro and applied in transplanting.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130464215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Important progress has been made in the study of stroke-related risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, diet, physical activity, smoking, and alcohol abuse. However, there are still gaps in the study of immutable risk factors such as age, sex, race, transient ischemic attack (TIA), and psychological factors that are important triggers of stroke. In addition, it has been demonstrated that stroke poses a danger for developing Alzheimer's disease, but there is still a lack of uniform explanation as to whether Alzheimer's disease is a risk factor for stroke. Therefore, combining previous research and relevant literature, this article mainly analyzes two parts: The first part analyzes the causes of the high incidence of stroke in the elderly from a psychological perspective, mainly analyzing the impact of depression, and the second part explores whether Alzheimer's disease poses a danger for developing stroke by analyzing the potential common pathway between Alzheimer's disease and stroke. The elderly is more likely to have negative emotions such as depression, which can directly induce stroke, or indirectly increase the risk of stroke by increasing the risk of hypertension, diabetes, etc. The susceptibility to negative emotions is one of the psychological factors that contributes to the high incidence of stroke in the elderly. Alzheimer's disease can induce or exacerbate stroke. The dementia and cognitive impairment brought on by Alzheimer's disease can raise the chance of stroke. There are potential mechanism connections between the two on amyloid proteins β (Aβ) toxicity, Tau protein, and oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114190260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The specificity of TNBC makes it difficult to determine the standard and best treatment for patients because TNBC does not have three hormone receptors like other types of breast cancer (ER+, PR+ HER2+). Currently, a standard treatment for triple-negative breast cancer is chemotherapy. As well as being effective as a treatment method, novel immunotherapy has also risen in popularity. It is true that there are numerous articles introducing chemotherapy and immunotherapy in detail, but few of these papers compare the two. The purpose of this article is to summarize three common types of chemotherapy and two types of immunotherapies. Furthermore, a comparison based on resistance, toxicity, survival, and response rates shows that immunotherapy has a few advantages over chemotherapy, but it still has some disadvantages. However, a combination of both immunotherapy and chemotherapy is more effective for TNBC patients.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122523799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to t(8;21) chromosomal translocation, the fused gene suppresses the expression of all RUNX1-mediated hematopoietic genes, inhibiting the normal differentiation of myeloid cells and inducing leukemogenesis. This type of AML involves menacing symptoms from the disease and persisting adverse effects from the therapy they received. Current research regarding this type of AML mainly focuses on random individual pharmaceutical targets and biomolecular pathways. However, more attention needs to be placed on prioritizing aspects regarding different aspects of this type of AML, and future research should devote more effort to it. This paper explores if there is a correlation between the complexity of the study and specific pharmaceutical targets or pathways it focuses on. By analyzing several recent studies related to RUNX1-RUNX1T1-induced AML, a conclusion is derived that the later stage of leukemogenesis of the research target or pathway belongs to, the more complicated process and resources will be needed to complete that research. However, the significance of the study focuses on different stages of leukemogenesis weighted equally.

However, gene chip technology also produces a large amount of complex data, and the main problem we are currently facing is how to manage and analyze these data and mine meaningful biological information from them. In this paper, based on the comparative analysis of unidirectional and bidirectional clustering algorithms, a bidirectional clustering method combining unidirectional clustering and sparse singular value decomposition (SSVD) is proposed, and its effectiveness is analyzed. The improvement of the SSVD method is to use the single-way clustering method instead of manually setting parameters, and use the results obtained by the single-way clustering to ensure that the clustering of the genes is performed while the sample clustering has certain correctness. Experiments show that compared with the traditional SSVD algorithm, it has a better execution effect.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"191 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127400157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the integral evolutionary history from the Cretaceous period to modern times will be introduced and the interrelationship between suspension feeders and plankton will be discussed. It’s worth noting that it was the nutritive environment that contributed to their adaptive evolution by boosting the thriving of plankton. The emergence of Clypeasteroids was ultimately the result of geological evolution in the Mesozoic, especially the Cretaceous period. As the dominant species in modern benthic ecosystems, clypeasteroids are still in the face of a variety of environmental changes, such as ocean warming, ocean acidification and microplastics. It is a brand new perspective to explore the interrelationship between Clypeasteroids and the marine environment by discussing the evolutionary history influenced by plankton like algae and its ecological impact of controlling the population density of algae, and it has been concluded that the marine environmental effects distinguish because Clypeasteroids was born of dramatic environmental change caused by geological activities.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125358624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
