Objective: This study aims to investigate the association between dietary intake of niacin and vitamin B6 and the prevalence of endometriosis using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2006.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using data from women aged 25-45 years in the 2003-2006 NHANES. Niacin and vitamin B6 intake were assessed using 24-h dietary recalls, and endometriosis status was determined by self-report.
Background: The effect of ovarian-sparing surgery versus ovariectomy on prognosis in early cervical adenocarcinoma is controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of ovary preservation versus ovariectomy on the prognosis of patients with cervical adenocarcinoma.
Methods: A literature search was conducted of the PubMed, Excerpta Medica Database, Medline, Central, China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, and China Science Periodical Database.
Background: There is currently a lack of clinical models to accurately predict the prognosis of cervical adenocarcinoma. This study aimed to explore the correlation between immune genes and the prognosis of cervical adenocarcinoma patients, and establish a prognostic model.
Methods: Transcriptome sequencing data sets and clinical data sets of cervical adenocarcinoma samples were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
Down-regulated chemerin expression has been reported to correlate with poor prognosis of several types of cancer including melanoma. All-trans retinoic acid (atRA) is a potent inducer of chemerin, and we previously reported that atRA inhibited murine melanoma growth through enhancement of anti-tumor T-cell immunity. Here, we aimed to investigate whether loss of endogenous chemerin accelerated melanoma growth and whether chemerin was involved in the melanoma-inhibitory effect of atRA.
