Objective: To investigate the efficacy of Longteng Tongluo recipe (, LTTL) combined with three-step analgesia for the treatment of lung cancer pain, and the changes in serum miRNA expressions before- and after treatment with LTTL and its correlation with lung cancer pain. The possible mechanism underlying LTTL effects on the treatment of lung cancer pain was conducted.
Methods: The pilot study was conducted at the oncology ward of the Yueyang Hospital and the Longhua Hospital between March 2018 and October 2019.
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most important subtype of lung cancer. It is well known that the gut microbiome plays an important role in the pathophysiology of various diseases, including cancer, but little research has been done on the intestinal microbiome associated with LUAD. Utilizing bioinformatics tools and data analysis, we identified novel potential prognostic biomarkers for LUAD.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the prevalence and associated factors and to develop a prognostic nomogram to predict the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) for patients with LCBM using multicenter population-based data.
Methods: Patients with LCBM at the time of diagnosis were identified using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program database of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) from 2010 to 2015.
Circular RNA is a newly discovered member of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) and regulates the target gene by acting as a micro-RNA sponge. It plays vital roles in various diseases. However, the functions of circular RNA in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain still unclear.
