Background: To evaluate the diagnosis value of the microRNA-200 family in ovarian cancer patients. However, there is much controversy regarding the diagnosis of miR-200. Therefore, it is necessary to use meta method to further confirm the significance of diagnosis role of the miR-200 family tumor marker series in ovarian cancer.

Background: Metals play an important role in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to explore the association of T2DM risk with single metal exposure and multi-metal co-exposure.

Methods: A case-control study with 223 T2DM patients and 302 controls was conducted.

Background: Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) has been reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in different populations, however, little is reported in Chinese population. The present study aimed to explore the association between some polymorphisms of UCP1 with T2DM and the interactions between UCP1 and physical activity/sedentary behavior (PA/SB) lifestyle in Chinese population.

Methods: Three polymorphisms (rs1472268, rs3811790 and rs3811791) were genotyped in 929 T2DM patients and 1044 nondiabetic controls.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a highly invasive urological malignant tumor that results in shorter patient survival. At present, the mechanism of ccRCC metastasis is not clear. We explored the possible mechanisms of ccRCC metastasis by analyzing the transcriptome of ccRCC patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Background: Apolipoprotein B (APOB), and hepatic lipase (LIPC) genes have been shown to play a key role in lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study aimed to investigate the association of the three polymorphisms (rs679899 in APOB and rs6078 and rs6083 in LIPC) with T2D and related clinical quantitative traits.

Methods: We conducted a case-control study in Chinese Han population, with a total of 929 T2D patients and 1044 healthy subjects in Chinese Han population.

Background: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-I), encoded by SERPINE1 gene, is a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily, and polymorphisms in SERPINE1 have been reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study investigated whether the polymorphism in PAI-I contribute to the risk for T2D.

Methods: A 1:1 case-control study was conducted to investigate the association of rs6092 in SERPINE1 with T2D and diabetes-related metabolic traits, including body mass index, waist circumference (WC), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in a Chinese population, with a total of 1572 subjects (786 T2D patients and 786 healthy controls).
