Objective: Solitary plasmacytoma of bone of the spine (SPBS) was rarely detected in the past. However, its incidence has gradually increased with improvements in the diagnosis and understanding of the disease. We aimed to conduct a population-based cohort study to characterize the prevalence and factors associated with SPBS and develop a prognostic nomogram for predicting the overall survival of SPBS patients with a real-world analysis based on the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results database.

It is a major oncogene in several cancers such as lung cancer and breast cancer, while the potential functions of UBE2T in gastric cancer (GC) remains largely unknown. Here, we identified the roles of UBE2T in GC progression and its potential to act as a prognostic marker of GC.
