FGD5‑AS1 is an oncogenic lncRNA in pancreatic cancer and regulates the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway via miR‑577.

The objective of the present study was to clarify the expression characteristics of long non‑coding RNA (lncRNA) FGD5 antisense RNA 1 (FGD5‑AS1) in pancreatic cancer, as well as its biological function and underlying mechanism. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) was utilized for the detection of FGD5‑AS1 and microRNA (miR)‑577 expression levels in pancreatic cancer tissues. Transfection was performed to upregulate or downregulate FGD5‑AS1 in pancreatic cancer cell lines.

A Bifunctional Coordination Polymer for Al Ion Detection and its Treatment Effect on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease by Promoting Lipoxygenases and Reducing Intrahepatic Triglyceride Content.

In this study, a new Cd(II)-bearing coordination polymer with the chemical formula of {[Cd(meda)(dpe)(HO)]·(NO)·2(HO)} (1, Hmeda = 3,3'-methylenedibenzoic acid, dpe = 1,2-di(pyridin-4-yl)ethane) has been successfully prepared by reaction of Cd(NO)·4HO with a V-shape carboxyl ligand Hmeda along with the linear dipyridine ligand dpe under the hydrothermal conditions. Due to its intensive luminescence, complex 1 could be utilized as the sensor of detecting Al ion, and its detection limit is 4 × 10 M. Firstly, the toxicity of the compound on the normal liver cells was determined with Cell Counting Kit-8 detection kit.

[Meta-analysis of calcium chemotherapeutic effect of anterior cervical subtotal vertebroplasty and posterior laminoplasty].

Objective: To systematically assess the efficacy of anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) versus posterior laminoplasty (LAMP) for cervical ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL).

Methods: PubMed and EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP were collected from 7 databases of ACCF, LAMP from 1970 to May 2018. According to the criteria, the articles were included and independently screened by two authors.

[Auxiliary analgesic effect of wrist-ankle acupuncture on patients undergoing transforaminal endoscope surgery].

Objective: To observe the auxiliary analgesic effect of wrist-ankle acupuncture on patients undergoing transforaminal endoscope surgery.

Methods: A total of 64 patients with lumbar disc herniation who underwent percutaneous lateral transforaminal endoscope surgery were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 32 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were treated with injection of 1% lidocaine for routine local infiltration anesthesia.

Diabetes mellitus and risk of pancreatic cancer in China: A meta-analysis based on 26 case-control studies.

Aims: The relationship between diabetes mellitus and pancreatic cancer risk from is uncertain based on the results of existing publications. The current report updated and re-evaluated the possible association between diabetes mellitus and pancreatic cancer risk in China.

Methods: Six databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese Biomedical Database, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure) were used for the literature search up to October 2017.
