Interventional treatment of keratoacanthoderma: a case report.

This current case report describes a 56-year-old male patient with a skin mass on his lip that had been growing for 1 year. The pathological findings demonstrated that the epidermis was characterized by hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia and hypertrophy and was formed in the shape of a crater. The skin on both ends had developed into a ball-like growth that resembled a volcanic cone.

Study on the expression of p53 and MMP-2 in patients with lung cancer after interventional therapy.

The aim of the study was to investigate the expression of tumor suppressor gene p53 and MMP-9 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before and after chemotherapy, and investigate its association with the effect of chemotherapy and prognosis. Fifty-eight elderly NSCLC patients comprised the observation group. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of p53 and MMP-9 in lung cancer tissues before and after chemotherapy.
