Longitudinal associations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with metabolic syndrome in the Chinese population: a prospective cohort study.

Objective: Currently, most studies only reveal the relationship between baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels and metabolic syndrome (MetS). The relationship between dynamic changes in HDL-c or LDL-c and MetS remains unclear. We aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between the dynamic changes in HDL-c or LDL-c and MetS.

Endostar combined with irinotecan/calcium folinate/5-fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) for treating advanced colorectal cancer: A clinical study.

Purpose: The current study aimed to evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of endostar plus irinotecan/calcium folinate/5-fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) in treatment of advanced colorectal cancer (CRC).

Methods: Forty patients with advanced CRC were enrolled in this study and randomly assigned to two groups. The control group (n = 18) and tested group (n = 22) were received FOLFIRI alone and FOLFIRI plus endostar, respectively.
