Evaluation of therapeutic efficacy of anticoagulant drugs for patients with venous thromboembolism during pregnancy: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

A meta-analysis based on published literature was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of anticoagulant drugs for the treatment of venous thromboembolism during pregnancy. PubMed, Cochrane and Embase databases were searched from inception to September 2018 for relevant studies using indexed words, including qualified case-control and cohort studies. The meta-analysis used odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to analyse the primary results.

[Value of 640-slice 3D CT angiography plus 3D printing for improving surgeries for intracranial aneurysms].

Objective: To evaluate the value of 640-slice 3D CT angiography (3D-CTA) plus 3D printing for improving the outcomes of surgeries for intracranial aneurysms.

Methods: Sixty patients with intracranial aneurysm were randomly divided into trial group (n=30) and control group (n=30). The control group received routine surgery, and the simulation models of the intracranial aneurysm in trial group was printed using a 3D printer using the imaging data from 3D-CTA.

gene regulates PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cell behaviors through MEK-ERK1/2 of the MAPK signaling pathway.

The present study aimed to investigate the role of gene in the proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and migration of PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells and the effect on the MAPK signaling pathway. Human PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells were cultured , and small interfering RNA (siRNA) was designed for the gene. The siRNA was transfected into PANC-1 cells.
