Aim: To determine whether an electronic nose can differentiate cultured nonmalignant and malignant prostatic cells from each other and whether the smell print is secreted to the surrounding medium. Materials & methods: Prostatic nonmalignant (EP-156T and controls) and malignant (LNCaP) cell lines, as well as conditioned and unconditioned media, were collected. The smell prints of the samples were analyzed by a ChemPro (R) 100 electronic nose device. The data were normalized and dimension reduction was conducted. The samples were classified and misclassification rates were calculated. Results: The electronic nose differentiated the nonmalignant and malignant cell lines from each other, achieving misclassification rates of 2.9-3.6%. Cells did not differ from the conditioned medium but differed from the unconditioned medium (misclassification rates: 0.0-25.6%). Conclusion: Malignant and nonmalignant prostatic cell lines have distinct smell prints. Prostatic cancer cells seem to modify the smell print of their medium.

Summary: Circulating cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) levels are associated with age, sex, smoking, physical activity, vegetable consumption, ageing phenotypes, and various biomarkers. Higher cf-DNA levels were found in men, especially middle-aged men and women who smoke, and older frail individuals. Inflammatory markers, metabolites, and antioxidant levels were correlated with cf-DNA levels. These findings have implications for future studies on the epidemiology and biological mechanisms of cf-DNA and its potential as a clinical marker.

Summary: The aim of this pilot study was to analyze maxillary sinus secretion with differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) to determine whether the secretion demonstrates a different volatile organic compound (VOC) profile when bacteria are present. The results suggest that there are different VOCs released in the presence of bacteria in the sinus secretion. However, further conclusions cannot be made due to the limited data. Future studies should examine whether DMS analysis of exhaled air can detect bacterial acute rhinosinusitis (ARS).

Summary: This study examined the long-term associations between parenthood-related factors and physical activity from young adulthood to midlife. Results showed that parents with children under 6 years old were less likely to be physically active than those without children. However, there was no difference in meeting the aerobic physical activity recommendation between parents with older children and childless individuals. The older the youngest child, the more likely the parents were to be physically active.

Summary: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a global disease with significant genetic factors. By using single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing, this study explores the biological diversity of atherosclerosis-associated cell states and their contribution to CAD risk. The researchers identified disease-associated cell states, with Vcam1 thorn smooth muscle cells showing the highest contribution to CAD heritability. The findings provide insights into CAD risk mechanisms and have implications for precision medicine and tailored therapeutic interventions.

Summary: Limited data is available on the association between neighbourhood deprivation and arterial stiffening. This study found that neighbourhood deprivation in childhood and adulthood predicts arterial stiffness indicated by pulse wave velocity (PWV). These findings suggest that neighbourhood deprivation and low adulthood socioeconomic status are independent risk factors for increased arterial stiffness in adulthood.

Summary: Through meta-analysis of epigenome-wide association studies, we found significant associations between dietary and supplemental intake of vitamins C and E with DNA methylation. Vitamin C intake was associated with 4,656 CpG sites, while vitamin E intake was associated with 160 CpG sites. Vitamin C intake was found to be related to systems development and the immune response, while no significant associations were found for vitamin E intake with any biological pathways investigated.

Summary: This observational study examines the complex temporal associations between body-mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), and circulating metabolomics. It uses longitudinal and cross-sectional population-based datasets and new systems epidemiology tools. The results show that age-associated weight variation in adults between 24 and 49 manifests as temporal divergence in BMI and uniform progression of WHR.

Summary: This study used an unsupervised machine learning method called PGMRA to discover the genotype-lipidome relations in a Finnish population. The researchers found 93 statistically significant lipidome-genotype relations, which contained a total of 5977 SNPs across 3164 genes. Twenty nine of these relations represented distinct subgroups with unique SNPs and participants. Pathway enrichment analysis identified 30 significantly enriched biological processes related to plasma lipid metabolism. These findings have implications for precision medicine research.

Summary: This study examined the clustering of Cloninger's temperament dimensions and their association with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The results showed that multiple SNPs from different genes were associated with different temperament clusters. Genetic risk scores (GRSs) were also found to be associated with individuals' temperament profiles. However, further research is needed to explore the clinical applicability of these clusters.

Summary: This study identifies new genetic variants associated with resting heart rate (RHR) and demonstrates that higher genetically predicted RHR is associated with a decreased risk of atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke. Genome-wide analysis reveals multiple genetic variants in cardiomyocyte-related genes and provides insights into their electrocardiogram (ECG) signature. Mendelian randomization analyses indicate that higher genetically predicted RHR increases the risk of dilated cardiomyopathy, but reduces the risk of atrial fibrillation, ischemic stroke, and cardio-embolic stroke.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for ischemic stroke (IS) after acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Based on a retrospective registry study of 8049 ACS patients, it was found that previous stroke, atrial fibrillation or flutter, and heart failure indicated by the Killip classification were the most significant risk factors for both early-onset and late-onset IS. Left ventricular ejection fraction and coronary artery disease severity were important risk factors for early-onset IS, while age and peripheral artery disease were important risk factors for late-onset IS. The CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc score and its components were strong predictors for both early-onset and late-onset IS.
