Green finance as a driver for environmental and economic resilience post-COVID-19: A focus on China's strategy.

This study investigates the critical role of green finance in enhancing environmental and economic resilience during China's post-COVID-19 recovery. Employing sophisticated econometric techniques, including the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model, the effectiveness of green finance policies and instruments is rigorously assessed during the years 1986-2022. The findings reveal that green finance initiatives significantly fund sustainable projects and drive economic revitalization, marking substantial progress in China's eco-friendly recovery.

Blood Urea Nitrogen-To-Albumin Ratio is a Predictor of Poor Outcomes in HBV-Related Decompensated Cirrhosis.

Background: This study was conducted to explore the predictive role of blood urea nitrogen-to-albumin ratio (BAR) in HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DC).

Methods: A total of 163 HBV-DC patients were enrolled. The prognostic performance of BAR for predicting 30-day mortality was evaluated.

High C-Reactive Protein-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Is Predictive of Unfavorable Prognosis in HBV-Associated Decompensated Cirrhosis.

Objective: Hepatitis B virus-associated decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DeCi) is difficult to cure and has a very high risk of mortality. However, prediction of its prognosis is challenging. The C-reactive protein-to-lymphocyte ratio (CLR) is a newly discovered inflammatory indicator, but its role in HBV-DeCi remains unclear.

Prognostic value of albumin-related ratios in HBV-associated decompensated cirrhosis.

Background: Identification of effective and accurate prognostic biomarkers for hepatitis B virus-associated decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DeCi) is challenging. This study was designed to determine and compare the prognostic value of albumin-related ratios (blood urea nitrogen-to-albumin ratio [BAR], C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio [CAR], prothrombin time-international normalized ratio-to-albumin ratio [PTAR], neutrophil count-to-albumin ratio [NAR], and D-dimer-to-albumin ratio [DAR]) in HBV-DeCi patients.

Methods: We retrospectively recruited 161 HBV-DeCi patients.

Low Hemoglobin-to-Red Cell Distribution Width Ratio Is Associated with Mortality in Patients with HBV-Related Decompensated Cirrhosis.

Background: The prognostic role of hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio (HRR) in HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DeCi) has not been established. The present study is aimed at determining the potential of HRR as a predictive factor for the prognosis of HBV-DeCi patients.

Methods: The study included 177 HBV-DeCi patients.

Association of Low High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels with Poor Outcomes in Hepatitis B-Associated Decompensated Cirrhosis Patients.

Background: Lipid levels become decreased in cirrhotic patients and are correlated with disease severity. In the present study, we investigated the impact of serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) on prognosis in patients with HBV-associated decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DeCi).

Methods: The medical records of 153 HBV-DeCi patients were analyzed.

Ribonuclease H2 Subunit A impacts invasiveness and chemoresistance resulting in poor survivability of breast cancer in ER dependent manner.

Ribonuclease H2 subunit A (RNASEH2A), a member of the RNase HII family, acts in DNA replication by mediating removal of lagging-strand Okazaki fragment RNA primers. We explored the roles of RNASEH2A in the prognosis of breast cancer, specifically in relation to proliferation, invasiveness, and sensitivity to cytotoxins of cells in the estrogen receptor (ER)-positive MCF-7 and the ER-negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines. We collected 26 datasets from around the world, comprising 7815 accessible cases.

Therapeutic Effect of on Type 2 Diabetic Nonproliferative Retinopathy and the Involvement of VEGF.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of in treating type 2 diabetic nonproliferative retinopathy.

Methods: It was a randomized controlled clinical trial. The recruited eighty subjects with type 2 diabetic nonproliferative retinopathy were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.

Soluble CD14 Subtype in Peripheral Blood is a Biomarker for Early Diagnosis of Sepsis.

Objective: To study the value of serum soluble CD14 subtype (sCD14-ST) in early diagnosis of sepsis.

Methods: Seventy-two patients were diagnosed with systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, or septic shock. Peripheral blood was collected at 0, 12, 24, and 48 hours after admission to the hospital.

Oroxylin A exerts anticancer effects on human ovarian cancer cells via the PPARγ‑dependent reversal of the progesterone receptor membrane component 1/2 expression profile.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological cancer worldwide. To date, the therapeutic approaches available for the treatment of ovarian cancer are still very limited. The present study first demonstrated that the Chinese herb, Oroxylin A, exerts inhibitory effects on both the migratory ability and viability of ovarian cancer cells.

Extracts of Qizhu decoction inhibit hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro and in C57BL/6 mice by suppressing NF-κB signaling.

Hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma are serious human diseases. Here, we examined the in vivo and in vitro inhibitory effect of extracts of Qizhu decoction (a traditional Chinese medicine) on hepatitis caused by diethylnitrosamine or hepatitis B virus and on diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocellular carcinoma. The results showed that both the aqueous and ethanol extracts (QC and QS, respectively) of Qizhu decoction significantly inhibited hepatic inflammation and liver cancer induced by diethylnitrosamine or hepatitis B virus by suppressing NF-κB signaling and decreasing the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β.

Establishment of Reference Interval for Alkaline Phosphatase in Healthy Children of Various Ethnicities, Aged 0-12 Years.

Background: To establish a reference interval of alkaline phosphatase for healthy children of various ethnicities, aged 0 years to 12 years in China.

Methods: According to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guideline C28-A3, blood specimens were collected in the morning after overnight fasting from 502 healthy children to determine the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level, using the Beckman AU5800 automatic biochemical analyzer. Children were grouped by sex and age.
