In this study, the clinical implications and potential functions of necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) in melanoma were systematically characterized. A novel NRG signature was then constructed to analyze the immune status and prognosis of patients with melanoma. The NRG signatures for melanoma prognosis were searched using the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset and followed by stepwise Cox regression analysis.

The antitumor activity of luteolin has been gradually discovered. The purpose of this study was to predict the potential of luteolin in the treatment of endometrial cancer and to provide reference for future clinical drug use.

Methods: Confirmed studies related to selenium supplementation and PCOS were searched from the databases of EMBASE, PubMed and Web of Science. Data were reported as weighted mean difference (WMD) or standard mean difference (SMD) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
N-7 methylguanine (m7G) is one of the most common RNA base modifications in post-transcriptional regulation, which participates in multiple processes such as transcription, mRNA splicing and translation during the mRNA life cycle. However, its expression and prognostic value in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) have not been systematically studied. In this paper, the data such as gene expression profiles, clinical data of UCEC patients, somatic mutations and copy number variants (CNVs) are obtained from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and UCSC Xena.

By obtaining capsaicin and UCEC-related DR-DEGs, the prognosis-related gene GATA1 was screened. The survival analysis was conducted via establishing high and low expression groups of GATA1.

However, the role of necroptosis-related Messenger RNA (mRNA) in predicting the prognosis and immune response of cervical squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma (CESC) has not been fully studied. Firstly, the incidence of somatic mutation rate and copy number variation for 74 necroptosis-related mRNAs (NRmRNAs) were analyzed.

Patients are at a higher risk of recurrence after surgery or drug withdrawal. In this study, to identify a potentially effective and safe therapy for endometriosis, we screened potential target genes of kaempferol on endometriosis using network pharmacology and further validation.

However, there are few articles systematically analyzing the necroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (NRlncRNAs) correlated with CESC patients. Both RNA-sequencing and clinical data of CESC patients are downloaded from TCGA database in this study.

In order to further clarify whether antioxidant therapy is beneficial for PCOS patients and the emphasis of its effects, this study provides a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials examining the effect of antioxidant intervention on PCOS.
Methods: Enrolled study designs related to antioxidant interventions and PCOS, published from 1999 to 2020, were searched from EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science databases to sort out proven studies on antioxidant interventions and PCOS.
Necroptosis is one of the common modes of apoptosis, and it has an intrinsic association with cancer prognosis. However, the role of the necroptosis-related long non-coding RNA LncRNA (NRLncRNAs) in uterine corpora endometrial cancer (UCEC) has not yet been fully elucidated at present. Therefore, the present study is designed to investigate the potential prognostic value of necroptosis-related LncRNAs in UCEC.

The objective of this present study is to assess the effect of metformin on low birth weight girls with precocious puberty (LBW-PP girls).
Methods: We search the confirmed studies about circulating metformin and PP from the databases of EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science.
Endometrial carcinoma is one of the two cancers with rising mortality and morbidity in recent years. In the light of many controversies about its treatment, it is urgent to construct a new prognostic model and to find out new therapeutic directions. As a small drug molecule widely used in clinical treatment and experimental research in China, puerarin has recently been proven to have obvious anti-cancer effects in multiple cancer cells.
