Background: Hsa_circ_0072309 has been identified as a tumor suppressor in several carcinomas. However, its precise role in gastric cancer (GC) remains largely unknown. This study was aimed to explore the precise role of Hsa_circ_0072309 in GC.

- A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the effectiveness of fecal lactoferrin (FL) in distinguishing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
- Seven studies with a total of 1012 patients were included, showing FL's pooled sensitivity at 78% and specificity at 94%.
- The findings suggest that FL is a reliable, noninvasive marker that can help differentiate between IBD and IBS effectively.
Background: Runt-related transcription factor 3 (RUNX3) is a member of the runt-domain family of transcription factors and has been reported to be a candidate tumor suppressor in gastric cancer. However, the association between RUNX3 promoter methylation and gastric cancer remains unclear.
Methods: We systematically reviewed studies of RUNX3 promoter methylation and gastric cancer published in English or Chinese from January 2000 to January 2011, and quantified the association between RUNX3 promoter methylation and gastric cancer using meta-analysis methods.
