Dysregulation of p53 and phosphoinositide (PIPn) signaling are both key drivers of oncogenesis and metastasis. Our recent findings reveal a previously unrecognized interaction between these pathways, converging in the nucleus to form a PIPn-p53 signalosome that modulates nuclear AKT activation and downstream signaling, thereby influencing cancer cell survival and motility. This review examines recent insights into nuclear PIPn signaling in the context of established roles for p53 in cell dynamics and migration while also deliberating current research on how nuclear PIPns interact with p53 to form signalosomes that affect cell motility. We emphasize the critical role of PIPns in stabilizing p53 and activating de novo nuclear AKT signaling, which subsequently modulates key motility-related pathways. Understanding the unique operation and function of the PIPn-p53 signalosome in nuclear phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT activation offers novel therapeutic strategies for controlling cancer metastasis by targeting pertinent interactions and events.

Objective:To investigate the association between the Doppler variables of the ophthalmic artery with the severity of preeclampsia(PE).Methods:Systematic literature was searched between January 1995 and March 2023 in PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,and the Cochrane Library.Studies comparing ophthalmic artery Doppler variables,including peak systolic velocity(PSV),end-diastolic velocity(EDV),resistive index(Rl),pulsa-tility index(PI),and peak ratio(PR,the ratio of the flow velocity of the second peak to that of the initial peak)in patients with PE,severe preeclampsia(sPE),and healthy pregnant women were included.The random-effects model was adopted as the method of pooled analysis,and the I2value was used to assess heterogeneity.The pooled standardized mean difference(SMD)with 95％confidence interval(CI)was used to estimate the associa-tion between ophthalmic artery Doppler variables and PE patient's characteristics.Results:Eight retrospective studies were eventually included in this Meta-analysis.Our pooled results suggested that compared with PE ca-ses,sPE patients had lower PI levels(SMD-0.56,95％CI-0.92～-0.20,P=0.000),higher EDV levels(SMD 0.47,95％CI 0.12～0.83,P=0.028)and higher PR levels(SMD0.96,95％CI 0.13～1.78,P=0.023).Howev-er,there was no significant difference between PE and sPE patients about the PSV and RI(P=0.361,P=0.626).Conclusions:This review demonstrates that ophthalmic artery Doppler variables(PI,EDV and PR)could be useful for predicting PE and PE development(especially in identifying sPE),which in turn may help the practitioner in the management of these complicated cases and in taking early necessary precautions.

BACKGROUND:This study aimed to evaluate the discriminatory performance of 11 vital sign-based early warning scores(EWSs)and three shock indices in early sepsis prediction in the emergency department(ED). METHODS:We performed a retrospective study on consecutive adult patients with an infection over 3 months in a public ED in Hong Kong.The primary outcome was sepsis(Sepsis-3 definition)within 48 h of ED presentation.Using c-statistics and the DeLong test,we compared 11 EWSs,including the National Early Warning Score 2(NEWS2),Modified Early Warning Score,and Worthing Physiological Scoring System(WPS),etc.,and three shock indices(the shock index[SI],modified shock index[MSI],and diastolic shock index[DSI]),with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome(SIRS)and quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(qSOFA)in predicting the primary outcome,intensive care unit admission,and mortality at different time points. RESULTS:We analyzed 601 patients,of whom 166(27.6%)developed sepsis.NEWS2 had the highest point estimate(area under the receiver operating characteristic curve[AUROC]0.75,95%CI 0.70-0.79)and was significantly better than SIRS,qSOFA,other EWSs and shock indices,except WPS,at predicting the primary outcome.However,the pooled sensitivity and specificity of NEWS2≥5 for the prediction of sepsis were 0.45(95%CI 0.37-0.52)and 0.88(95%CI 0.85-0.91),respectively.The discriminatory performance of all EWSs and shock indices declined when used to predict mortality at a more remote time point. CONCLUSION:NEWS2 compared favorably with other EWSs and shock indices in early sepsis prediction but its low sensitivity at the usual cut-off point requires further modification for sepsis screening.
