Development and Validation of a Risk Nomogram Model for Predicting Constipation in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Purpose: Constipation is a common complication of diabetic patients, which has a negative impact on their own health. This study aims to establish and internally validate the risk nomogram of constipation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to test its predictive ability.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective study included 746 patients with T2DM at two medical centers.

Integrated Analysis Identifies an Immune-Based Prognostic Signature for the Mesenchymal Identity in Gastric Cancer.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) has been divided into four molecular subtypes, of which the mesenchymal subtype has the poorest survival. Our goal is to develop a prognostic signature by integrating the immune system and molecular modalities involved in the mesenchymal subtype.

Methods: The gene expression profiles collected from 6 public datasets were applied to this study, including 1,221 samples totally.
