Objective: To investigate the differences and correlation between blood inflammatory indexes such as monocytes (MONO), lymphocytes (LYM), haemoglobin (HGB), neutrophils (NEU), platelets (PLT), ultrasensitive C-reactive protein, albumin and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), NEU/LYM ratio (NLR), MONO/LYM ratio (MLR) and clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods: 187 patients with NSCLC who were first diagnosed in 2017-2023 and 102 with healthy check-ups during the same period (control group) were retrospectively selected as study subjects to compare the differences in inflammatory indexes between the two groups and the levels of inflammatory indexes in NSCLC patients with different clinicopathologic characteristics.

Results: Correlation analysis between blood inflammatory indexes and clinicopathologic features in NSCLC group showed that C-reactive protein, CAR, and PLR values were different in different pathologic types (P<0.

In recent years, people's living standards are getting higher and higher, and life pressure is also increasing, and there are also many problems in eating habits. This is also the direct cause of colon cancer. The aim of this paper was to investigate whether anesthetic drugs could positively affect the proliferation and apoptosis of colon cancer cells.

Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is prevalent in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and is one of the major risk factors for poor outcomes and death. This study aimed to investigate the effects of non-protein calorie supplements on the nutritional status of MHD patients with PEW. MHD patients with PEW were enrolled in this multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial.

Cognitive deficit is a typical complication induced by stroke injuries. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a technique that can both attenuate neuropsychiatric disorders and influence miR levels. We attempted to assess effects of rTMS on post-stroke cognitive deficit (PSCD) by focusing on the activity of miR-409-3p/CTRP3/AMPK/Sirt1 axis.

Hereditary nephropathy is a progressive fatal renal disease caused by genetic changes. In this study, genetic screening was used to reveal mutations in a family in Southern China, in which there are two patients with confirmed hereditary nephropathy, who are alive at the time of publication. Imaging tests, including color Doppler ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as well as pathological examinations, including hematoxylin‑eosin staining, electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry were performed.

Background/aims: Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of inhibition of transient receptor potential cation channel C6 (TRPC6) on podocyte injury induced by TGF-β1 via nephrin and desmin mechanisms.

Methods: A rat model of nephropathy was first induced by intravenous injections of adriamycin to determine TRPC6 signal pathway engaged in glomerulosclerosis in vivo.

The apoptosis plays a critical role in a number of inflammatory disorders. Bacterial infection is one of the causes inducing apoptosis. This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which activation of TLR5 induces podocyte apoptosis.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Chunrong Tang"

  • - Chunrong Tang's recent research focuses on the interplay between inflammatory markers and various diseases, particularly in the context of cancer and chronic conditions, as demonstrated in studies assessing inflammatory indexes in non-small cell lung cancer patients and the impact of anesthetics on colon cancer cell behavior.
  • - Another significant area of Tang's work examines nutritional interventions for patient populations at risk, exemplified by a multi-center trial investigating non-protein calorie supplements for improving nutritional status among hemodialysis patients suffering from protein-energy wasting.
  • - Additionally, Tang explores mechanisms involved in disease progression and treatment effects, such as cognitive deficits post-stroke through repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, and genetic factors associated with hereditary nephropathy and podocyte injury, highlighting the intricate pathways involved in renal complications and apoptosis.
