Objective: To investigate the clinical application value of injection of indocyanine green (ICG) via vasopuncture in fluorescence laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (FLRP).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 50 cases of PCa treated by injection of ICG via vasopuncture in FLRP. The patients were aged (70.
This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance, biological functions, and underlying mechanisms of CXCL genes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRcc) based on patient datasets and pan-cancer analysis. The interaction between CXCL genes in ccRcc and immune components, particularly in relation to neutrophil recruitment and polarization mechanisms, was also evaluated. Furthermore, a risk score was developed using a signature for neutrophil polarization.

In 2016, an outbreak of paratyphoid fever occurred in 40 cases at Qingyang town, in China. A case-control study was carried out to determine the source of this outbreak. Case-control study was conducted to identify the risk factors of this outbreak.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjective: To explore fatty acid metabolism-related genes and signature, which could predict survival outcomes of clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) patients.
Materials And Methods: Transcriptional and survival data of fatty acid genes in ccRCC patients were retrieved from UCSC Xena and Geo DataSets. We first performed Lasso Cox regression analysis to identify survival-related genes.
Objective: To determine survival rates and the underlying mechanism of genes in the TRIM family in Kidney Clear Cell Carcinoma (KIRC).
Methods: Transcriptional and survival data of TRIM genes in KIRC patients were retrieved from the UCSC Xena, and GEPIA databases. The function of TRIM genes in KIRC was investigated, focusing on potential ubiquitination, miRNAs regulation, and enrichment analysis.
Immune-related genes are important factors in tumor progression. The main aim of this study was to identify the immune-related genes in kidney papillary cell carcinoma (pRCC) patients. We downloaded RNAseq data and clinical information of pRCC patients from the TCGA database and retrieved the immune-related genes list from Immport.

Thus, the aim of the present meta-analysis was performed to systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of PCA3 for PCa.
Materials And Methods: A meta-analysis was performed to search relevant studies using online databases EMBASE, PubMed and Web of Science published until February 1st, 2019.

Objective: To study the source of infection, the scope of epidemic and control measures in an outbreak involving students having symptoms as fever, dizziness, headache, vomiting and nausea.
Methods: The suspected-case was defined as fever (armpit temperature ≥ 37°C) and with one or more of the following symptoms: dizziness, headache, vomiting and nausea, among students and teachers at school from Mar 1, 2012. Confirmed-case was among suspected case accompanied by both throat and rectal swabs enterovirus positive by RT-PCR.
Objective: To study the therapeutical effects of crossing anastomosis of nerve on the peripheral and central nerve injuries.
Methods: Twelve kinds of central and peripheral nerve disorders and their complications were treated with 11 kinds of crossing anastomosis of nerve bundles near the innervated organs. After nerve injury and repair, somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) retrograde tracing studies were used to investigate the rabbit's nerve function and morphology.
