Thoracotomy is considered one of the most painful surgical procedures and can cause debilitating chronic post-surgical pain lasting months or years postoperatively. Aggressive management of acute pain resulting from thoracotomy may reduce the likelihood of developing chronic pain. This trial compares the two most commonly used modes of acute analgesia provision at the time of...

Disruption of brain barriers is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of neuronal surface antibody-associated autoimmune encephalitis (NSAE), but few studies have focused on their relationship. We aimed to explore the association between the integrity of brain barriers and clinical and paraclinical characteristics in patients with NSAE. This retrospective study...

The uncontrolled inflammatory response caused by a disorder in inflammation resolution is one of the reasons for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The macrophage pool markedly expands when inflammatory monocytes, known as recruited macrophages, migrate from the circulation to the lung. The persistent presence of recruited macrophages leads to chronic inflammation in the...

A new scale, named the Clinical Assessment Scale for Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE), has recently been developed for rating the severity of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) with a high level of clinimetric properties. In this study, our primary objective was to validate the performance of CASE through a multicenter study in China. Between July 2014 and December 2019, 143 consecutive...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), are transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that are considered to be vital regulators of many cellular processes, particularly in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 261 (LINC00261), a recently discovered lncRNA, is abnormally expressed in a variety of human malignancies, including pancreatic cancer, gastric...

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a complete or partial airway obstruction that causes significant physiologic disturbance with various clinical impacts. The aim of the study was to determine the risk factors associated with the severity of OSAS. 303 patients with OSAS and 199 patients without OSAS enrolled in the sleep disorder center from 2017 to 2019 were included in...
This retrospective analysis evaluated the interaction between Ki-67 and histological grade and their prognostic role in different breast cancer subtypes. In total, 2,573 breast cancer patients underwent surgery, and their histological grade and Ki-67 values were evaluated by breast pathologists. The median Ki-67 index was 15%, which was used as the cut-off for low/high Ki-67...
In the era of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), it is important to analyse the prognostic value of deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). In this study, in pretreatment biopsies of 69 patients with stage II–IVa NPC, the expression levels of MMR proteins, including MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2, were assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The...

Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) functions as a neurotransmitter for non-histaminergic itch, but its site of action (sensory neurons vs spinal cord) remains controversial. To determine the role of GRP in sensory neurons, we generated a floxed Grp mouse line. We found that conditional knockout of Grp in sensory neurons results in attenuated non-histaminergic itch, without impairing...
Purpose: Sarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome, and it is closely related to the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Until now, the diagnosis of sarcopenia requires Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scanning. This study aims to make risk assessment of sarcopenia with support vector machine (SVM) and random forest (RF) when DXA is not available.Methods: Firstly, we...
Objective To explore the effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue liraglutide (LIRA) on autophagy of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under high glucose condition, and its corresponding mechanism. Methods (1) The HUVECs were cultured in vitro and assigned to control group (group A) and high glucose group (group B). Group A and B were cultured...
