TL;DR: Observations support the hypothesis that depletion of tissue folate causes homocysteinemia in nonhomocystinuric subjects and relatively normal levels of serum total homocyst(e)ine were observed in four pregnant women with low serum folate, supporting previous suggestions of an influence of female sex hormone(s) in homocysteine metabolism.
Abstract: We examined the relationship between serum folate and total homocyst(e)ine levels by determining protein-bound homocyst(e)ine in stored serum from 19 subjects with subnormal serum folate (less than 2 ng/mL), 137 subjects with low normal serum folate (between 2.0 and 3.9 ng/mL), 44 subjects with normal serum folate (between 4.0 and 17.9 ng/mL), and 38 subjects with high serum folate (above 18 ng/mL). Eighty-four percent of the subjects with subnormal serum folate and 56% of the subjects with low normal serum folate had more than 7.05 nmol/mL serum total homocyst(e)ine (ie, more than two standard deviations above the normal mean). Thirty-two percent of these subjects had more than a three-fold increase in serum total homocyst(e)ine. These observations support the hypothesis that depletion of tissue folate causes homocysteinemia in nonhomocystinuric subjects. Subnormal as well as low normal concentrations of serum folate appear to produce an accumulation of homocyst(e)ine. In addition, relatively normal levels of serum total homocyst(e)ine were observed in four pregnant women with low serum folate, supporting previous suggestions of an influence of female sex hormone(s) in homocysteine metabolism.

TL;DR: In the Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18) as discussed by the authors, the authors proposed a flowchart for the treatment of acute cholecystitis (AC) in advanced centers with specialized surgeons experienced in this procedure.
Abstract: We propose a new flowchart for the treatment of acute cholecystitis (AC) in the Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18). Grade III AC was not indicated for straightforward laparoscopic cholecystectomy (Lap-C). Following analysis of subsequent clinical investigations and drawing on Big Data in particular, TG18 proposes that some Grade III AC can be treated by Lap-C when performed at advanced centers with specialized surgeons experienced in this procedure and for patients that satisfy certain strict criteria. For Grade I, TG18 recommends early Lap-C if the patients meet the criteria of Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) ≤5 and American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification (ASA-PS) ≤2. For Grade II AC, if patients meet the criteria of CCI ≤5 and ASA-PS ≤2, TG18 recommends early Lap-C performed by experienced surgeons; and if not, after medical treatment and/or gallbladder drainage, Lap-C would be indicated. TG18 proposes that Lap-C is indicated in Grade III patients with strict criteria. These are that the patients have favorable organ system failure, and negative predictive factors, who meet the criteria of CCI ≤3 and ASA-PS ≤2 and who are being treated at an advanced center (where experienced surgeons practice). If the patient is not considered suitable for early surgery, TG18 recommends early/urgent biliary drainage followed by delayed Lap-C once the patient's overall condition has improved.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N = 300,486; age 16-102) and find 148 genome-wide significant independent loci associated with general cognitive function.
Abstract: General cognitive function is a prominent and relatively stable human trait that is associated with many important life outcomes. We combine cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N = 300,486; age 16-102) and find 148 genome-wide significant independent loci (P < 5 × 10-8) associated with general cognitive function. Within the novel genetic loci are variants associated with neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders, physical and psychiatric illnesses, and brain structure. Gene-based analyses find 709 genes associated with general cognitive function. Expression levels across the cortex are associated with general cognitive function. Using polygenic scores, up to 4.3% of variance in general cognitive function is predicted in independent samples. We detect significant genetic overlap between general cognitive function, reaction time, and many health variables including eyesight, hypertension, and longevity. In conclusion we identify novel genetic loci and pathways contributing to the heritability of general cognitive function.
