Prognostic value of peripheral blood fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Objective: To investigate the expression and prognostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC).

Methods: This retrospective study included 118 cases diagnosed with metastatic or locally advanced PC who received systemic chemotherapy at People's Hospital of Deyang City from January 2018 to February 2021. Data and blood indicators were collected from patients, and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), NLR, and FAR were calculated.

Prognostic value of red blood cell distribution width in sepsis induced cardiomyopathy patients.

The potential association between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) at admission and prognosis in patients with sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy(SIC) remains uncertain. The purpose of this study was to explore the prognostic value of RDW on mortality in patients with SIC. Data for this retrospective study were obtained from the MIMIC IV2.

PPFIA4 Promotes Proliferation, Migration and Glycolysis of Esophageal Cancer Cells.

Unlabelled: PPFIA4 has been reported to be associated with cancer glycolysis, but its role in esophageal cancer (EC) is unclear.

Objective: To investigate the role of PPFIA4 in EC.

Methods: qRT-PCR and WB were used to detect the expression of PPFIA4 in EC cells and normal cells.

Construction and systematic evaluation of a machine learning-based cuproptosis-related lncRNA score signature to predict the response to immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant cancer with a poor prognosis. Cuproptosis and associated lncRNAs are connected with cancer progression. However, the information on the prognostic value of cuproptosis-related lncRNAs is still limited in HCC.

Study on Influencing Factors of Phase Transition Hysteresis in the Phase Change Energy Storage.

Phase change energy storage is a new type of energy storage technology that can improve energy utilization and achieve high efficiency and energy savings. Phase change hysteresis affects the utilization effect of phase change energy storage, and the influencing factors are unknown. In this paper, a low-temperature eutectic phase change material, CaCl·6HO-MgCl·6HO, was selected as the research object, combined with the mechanism of phase change hysteresis characteristics, using a temperature acquisition instrument to draw the step cooling curve.
