Assessment of Non-Phytate Phosphorus Requirements of Chinese Jing Tint 6 Layer Chicks from Hatch to Day 42.

We aimed to estimate the non-phytate phosphorus (NPP) requirements of Chinese Jing Tint 6 layer chicks. We randomly allocated 720 birds to five treatments with six cages of 24 birds each, feeding them a corn-soybean diet containing 0.36%, 0.

Preoperative imaging evaluation of the absolute indication criteria for endoscopic submucosal dissection in early gastric cancer patients.

Introduction: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor with a high mortality rate.

Aim: To determine the accuracy of preoperative imaging information obtained from the combined use of general gastroscopy (GS), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) regarding absolute indication of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in early gastric cancer (EGC).

Material And Methods: The relationship between clinical features of 794 EGC patients and lymph node metastasis (LNM) was analyzed.

Expanding the indication of endoscopic submucosal dissection for undifferentiated early gastric cancer is safe or not?

Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has gained more popularity in the treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC). Although there is a lack of confirmed evidence for the feasibility of ESD for undifferentiated EGC. The aim of the study was to investigate the feasibility of ESD with expanded indications for undifferentiated EGC patients.

Clinicopathological and Prognostic Features of Surgical Management in Duodenal Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors.

Background And Objectives: The rarity of duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (DGIST) led to only limited data being available on their management and prognosis. We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological features, surgical treatments, adjuvant therapy, and prognosis of DGIST.

Methods: Sixty-one patients were identified at diagnosis of primary DGIST from February 2005 to December 2015.

Long noncoding RNA UCA1 promotes tumour metastasis by inducing GRK2 degradation in gastric cancer.

Increasing evidence demonstrates that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate gene and protein expression by exerting an influence on transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. Here, we report that the lncRNA UCA1 increases the metastatic ability of gastric cancer (GC) cells by regulating GRK2 protein stability by promoting Cbl-c-mediated GRK2 ubiquitination and degradation. This process then activates the ERK-MMP9 signalling pathway.
