Objective: The ectopic expression of Homeobox (HOX) gene cluster-embedded long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been involved several carcinogenic development and progressions. This meta-analysis aimed to summarize the LncRNAs to validate the functions and the prognostic values in several kinds of cancer.

Methods: The retrospective study was conducted to analyze the association between HOX gene-related LncRNAs and the survival outcomes.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in development and progression of various cancers. To investigate the relationship between three tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs13252298, rs1016343, and rs1456315) in lncRNA prostate cancer-associated noncoding RNA 1 () and lung cancer (LC) risk, we conducted this study. First, we performed a case-control study, including 576 LC patients and 612 cancer-free controls.

Background: Some studies on the relationship between LINC00673 polymorphism and cancer susceptibility have been inconsistent. To perform a more comprehensively quantitative assessment of LINC00673 rs11655237 and risk of overall cancer, we operated this meta-analysis for the first time.

Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted to obtain relevant literature up to November 20, 2019.

Background: Most studies revealed that microRNAs could play important roles in the development of various types of cancers. However, the findings remain inconsistent and controversial. To get more accurate results about the association of miR-26a-1 rs7372209 and miR-423 rs6505162 polymorphisms with risk of cancer, we conduct this meta-analysis.

Purpose: The role of non-coding RNA, once thought to be dark matter, is increasingly prominent in cancer. Our article explores the effect of non-coding RNA in lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma by mining TCGA public database.

Methods: Download the data by applying the official TCGA software.

Background: In a variety of cancers, the expression of TINCR is linked to the development, progression, metastasis, invasion, and prognosis of cancer. Our study is the first study used meta-analysis to explore the relationship between TINCR expression and cancer.

Methods: By looking up PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI database, we obtained 10 articles for analysis.

Objective: To monitor the change of renin, endothelin and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha in canine during left ventricular assist (LVA).

Methods: Eight canines were assisted by left assist ventricular device for 9 hours. The level of renin, endothelin and 6-keto-prostaglandin f1alpha in plasma were measured by radioimmunity analysis before assisting (control group) and at 3 hours, at 6 hours, at 9 hours after assisting.

Objective: To develop an inflow cannula of left ventricular assist implanted by blood vessel.

Methods: The maximum inflow and properties against folding of 8 sorts of cannulae were measured in mimic extracorporeal circulation appliances and canines.

Results: The maximum flow of the cannula increased, as the inner diameter became greater (P < 0.
