Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) plays a crucial role in the formation and progression of tumors. DNA methylation has become increasingly recognized as a frequent event of epigenetic alterations and one of the primary mechanisms of gene inactivation. The study aims to investigate the status of DNA methylation and the biofunction of SPARC in breast cancer.

- The study explores whether the depth of anesthesia impacts postoperative mortality, finding a significant correlation between low bispectral index (BIS) levels and increased mortality risk.
- Analysis included data from 38,722 patients, revealing that while low BIS is linked to higher mortality after cardiac surgery, the same association was not seen for other types of surgeries.
- The findings suggest that deep anesthesia could affect long-term mortality, particularly in cardiac surgery patients, but this effect diminished 30 days post-surgery.
