Implications for household health expenditure in China's ageing population: based on Red Herring hypothesis.

The rising healthcare costs due to population aging present a complex issue, with debate centering on whether these costs are driven by aging or end-of-life care. This study examines healthcare expenditures in Chinese households using data from the 2005 and 2018 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. By applying the Heckman select model and a two-part model, the research innovatively includes time to death, income, social security and health level in the benchmark regression in order to validate the recent some new Red Herring hypothesis.

Gastroscopic observation and dose-volume histogram parameter study on gastrointestinal mucous injury for pancreatic cancer treated with TOMO.

To explore the relationships between gastrointestinal radiation injuries of pancreatic cancer patients treated with TOMO and dose-volume histogram parameters prospectively. Seventy patients with pancreatic cancer who underwent TOMO were enrolled in this prospective study from February 2015 to May 2020. The clinical and dose-volume histogram parameters of the patients were collected.

Circular RNA Sec61 subunit alpha isoform 1 by competitive absorption of microRNA-513a-5p mediates peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5 expression and promotes the malignant phenotype of non-small cell lung cancer.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are functional RNAs in the development and metabolism of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Therein, this paper particularly elucidated the circRNA SEC61 subunit alpha isoform 1 (circSEC61A1) in NSCLC has not been fully elucidated. Clinical analysis of circSEC61A1 expression was performed on specimens collected from 51 patients with primary NSCLC, together with patients' survival.

Hotline services in China during COVID-19 pandemic.

• Many countries are taking quarantine measures because of the globally spread transmission of the COVID-19, which may pose adverse psychological effects to people. • Hotline services is a great choice to provide psychological services for people in need since face-to-face social interaction are limited. • Hotline service should cover more than regular working hours.

SYT16 is a prognostic biomarker and correlated with immune infiltrates in glioma: A study based on TCGA data.

Background: Glioma is the most lethal primary brain tumor. Lower-grade glioma (LGG) is the crucial pathological type of Glioma. Immune-infiltration of the tumor microenvironment positively associated with overall survival in LGG.

Effect of region on the Outcome of Patients Receiving PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitors for Advanced Cancer.

Background: Regional differences were associated with cancer incidence and mortality. However, the correlation between regional differences and cancer immunotherapy efficacy was still not evaluated. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate whether regional differences play a role in efficacy of PD-1/L1 inhibitors in cancer patients.
