Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index and the Survival of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Meta-Analysis.

Malnutrition is a risk factor of adverse clinical outcome in patients with cancer. Recent studies suggest that geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) could reflect the nutritional status in patients with various clinical conditions. The aim of the systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the association between GNRI and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

IncRNA TYMSOS Promotes Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Metastasis in Thyroid Carcinoma through Regulating MARCKSL1 and Activating the PI3K/Akt Signaling Pathway.

Thyroid carcinoma (THCA) has been increasing in incidence greater than other cancers. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were reported to play crucial roles in THCA development. Our study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of lncRNA thymidylate synthetase opposite strand RNA (TYMSOS) in THCA.

LncRNA ATP1A1-AS1 inhibits cell proliferation and promotes cell apoptosis in thyroid carcinoma by regulating the miR-620/IRF2BP2 axis.

Background: Thyroid carcinoma (THCA) is a common malignancy of the endocrine system. Further understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying THCA is crucial to develop effective diagnostic therapy and improve its treatments. In this study, we intended to provide novel direction for THCA targeted therapy from the aspect of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction.

[Research on the signal pathway of hydrogen sulfide regulating autophagy to protect intestinal injury in sepsis].

Sepsis is one of the main causes of death in critically ill patients. The intestinal tract is not only the organ easily involved in sepsis, but also the initial organ in the progression of sepsis, so the improvement of intestinal barrier function is the key of the treatment of sepsis. In recent years, it has been found that autophagy is involved in the pathological process of sepsis, maintaining mitochondrial function by clearing damaged organelles, inhibiting inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis, regulating immunity, maintaining intestinal homeostasis, and improving the condition and prognosis of sepsis.

[Role of hydrogen sulfide mediated autophagy related genes in intestinal function injury of sepsis].

Sepsis is an organ dysfunction that endangers a patient's life caused by an imbalanced infection response, and is a clinically critical illness. Despite a deep understanding of the pathogenesis of sepsis, there has been no significant improvement in sepsis mortality during clinical treatment at home and abroad. In recent years, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of sepsis has become a new research point in the field of medical research.
