Research trends between diabetes mellitus and bariatric surgery researches: Bibliometric analysis and visualization from 1998 to 2023.

This study conducted a bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) to explore the relationship between diabetes mellitus and bariatric surgery (BS) from January 1985 to August 2023. No publications were found between 1985 and 1998. However, from 1998 to 2023, a total of 9,496 English articles were identified, accumulating 291,289 citations (241,563 excluding self-citations) and achieving an H-Index of 197.

Assessment of transient elastography in diagnosing MAFLD and the early effects of sleeve gastrectomy on MAFLD among the Chinese population.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has become a prevalent chronic liver disease among patients with obesity. Bariatric surgery, such as sleeve gastrectomy (SG), shows promise in improving the unfavorable condition of MAFLD. Transient elastography (TE) can be utilized to assess the extent of steatosis and liver fibrosis, providing a noninvasive method for preoperative prediction and postoperative evaluation of MAFLD.

Novel diagnostic biomarkers of oxidative stress, ferroptosis, immune infiltration characteristics and experimental validation in ischemic stroke.

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a prominent type of cerebrovascular disease leading to death and disability in an aging society and is closely related to oxidative stress. Gene expression profiling (GSE222551) was derived from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and 1934 oxidative stress (OS) genes were obtained from the GeneCards database. Subsequently, we identified 149 differentially expressed genes related to OS (DEOSGs).

Novel diagnostic biomarkers of oxidative stress, immune- infiltration characteristics and experimental validation of SERPINE1 in colon cancer.

Background: Colon cancer (CC) is a prevalent malignant tumor that affects the colon in the gastrointestinal tract. Its aggressive nature, strong invasiveness, and rapid progression make it a significant health concern. In addition, oxidative stress can lead to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that surpass the body's antioxidant defense capacity, causing damage to proteins, lipids, and DNA, potentially promoting tumor development.

Construction and validation of a nomogram for predicting diabetes remission at 3 months after bariatric surgery in patients with obesity combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Aim: Bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) is a proven treatment option for patients with both obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, there is a lack of comprehensive reporting on the short-term remission rates of diabetes, and the existing data are inadequate. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the factors that may contribute to diabetes remission (DR) in patients with obesity and T2DM, 3 months after undergoing BMS.

Uncovering the pathogenesis of obesity complicated with papillary thyroid carcinoma via bioinformatics and experimental validation.

This study aimed to investigate the common molecular mechanism between obesity and papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), the most common pathological type of thyroid cancer. In this study, we obtained gene expression datasets for obesity (GSE151839) and PTC (GSE33630) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). We used the Perl program and R software to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and common genes, perform GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, identify hub genes, and perform transcription factors (TFs) analysis.

Identification and validation of immune-related hub genes based on machine learning in prostate cancer and AOX1 is an oxidative stress-related biomarker.

To investigate potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers associated with prostate cancer (PCa), we obtained gene expression data from six datasets in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The datasets included 127 PCa cases and 52 normal controls. We filtered for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and identified candidate PCa biomarkers using a least absolute shrinkage and selector operation (LASSO) regression model and support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) analyses.

Tetrandrine citrate suppresses lung adenocarcinoma growth via SLC7A11/GPX4-mediated ferroptosis.

Ferroptosis is a mode of programmed cell death that plays a crucial role in tumor biology processes. Although tetrandrine citrate (TetC) has been demonstrated to exert anti-tumor effects, it is still unclear whether TetC inhibits lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) progression by inducing ferroptosis. The study showcased the inhibitory effect of TetC on the viability and progression of tumor cells, including intracellular iron overload, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), over-expression of malondial-dehyde (MDA), and depletion of glutathione (GSH).

Anti-cancer, Anti-collagenase and Anti-elastase Potentials of Some Natural Derivatives: In vitro and in silico Studies.

The anti-cancer activities of the compounds were evaluated against KYSE-150, KYSE-30, and KYSE-270 cell lines and also on investigated esophageal line HET 1 A as a standard. Modified inhibitory impact on enzymes of collagenase and elastase were used Thring and Moon methods, respectively. Among both compounds, both of them recorded impact on cancer cells being neutral against the control, both had IC50 lower than 100 µM and acted as a potential anticancer drug.

Identification and Verification of Immune-Related Genes Prognostic Signature Based on ssGSEA for Adrenocortical Carcinoma (ACC).

Purpose: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is an endocrine malignant tumor with poor prognosis. The study aimed to construct ACC immune-related gene prognostic signature and verify the efficacy of prognostic signature.

Methods: ACC RNA-seq data and clinical information are downloaded from TCGA databases and GEO databases.
