Background: The incidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in China is high, yet the treatment rate remains low. Research on the current state of the public's awareness of and willingness to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in Hubei Province is scarcer.
Objectives: The objective of this research was to explore the general public's knowledge, confidence, and willingness to perform CPR in Hubei Province, China.
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are associated with enhanced immunity in tumors. However, their formation and functions in colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) remain unclear. Here, we reveal that intra- and peri-tumor mature TLSs (TLS+) are associated with improved clinical outcomes than TLS- tumors.

A self-designed questionnaire was used for convenience sampling of the public in Hubei Province. The questionnaire consists of three parts: basic information, AED knowledge questions, and willingness to use public AED and influencing factors.

Here, we demonstrated that B cells are an important regulator in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) microenvironments.

However, the successful synthesis of mitochondria-targeted nanodrug delivery system for LPTT still faces diverse challenges, such as laborious preparations processes, low drug-loading, and significant systemic toxicity from the carriers. In this study, we used the tumor-targeting folic acid (FA) and mitochondria-targeting berberine (BBR) derivatives (BD) co-modified polyethylene glycol (PEG)-decorated graphene oxide (GO) to synthesize a novel mitochondria-targeting nanocomposite (GO-PEG-FA/BD), which can effectively accumulate in mitochondria of the osteosarcoma (OS) cells and achieve enhanced mitochondria-targeted LPTT effects with minimal cell toxicity.

This study aimed to identify pathogenic genes related to ferroptosis in the skin of humans after UVB radiation.
Methods: The gene expression profiles (GSE41078, GSE54413) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and the ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) were downloaded from the Genecards database.
The importance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the occurrence and development of orthopaedic related diseases is becoming increasingly prominent. ROS regulation has become a new method to treat orthopaedic related diseases. In recent years, the application of nanomaterials has become a new hope for precision and efficient treatment.

Background: Condyloma acuminatum (CA) of the anal canal is difficult to treat and subject to relapse.. We investigated the effects of aminolevulinic acid-based photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) combined with oral acitretin during therapy of refractory CA in the anal canal.

Yet, the role of the systemic inflammatory indices in preoperative microvascular invasion (MVI) prediction for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear.
Patients And Methods: In this study, data of 1,058 cases of patients with HCC treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from February 2002 to May 2018 were collected.
Purpose: Targeted therapy and immunotherapy are transforming the treatment approach for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). However, little is known about the intertumor heterogeneity (ITH) of multifocal ICC and its impacts on patient response to these treatments. We aimed to characterize the immunogenomic and epigenomic heterogeneity of multifocal ICC to guide treatment decision making.

However, comparison of clinical outcomes between AAVGs and standard arteriovenous grafts (SAVGs) is limited. In this study, we compared the performance of AAVGs and SAVGs.

Increasing evidence suggests that an exogenous electromagnetic field might be involved in many biologic processes which are of great importance for therapeutic interventions. Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) are known to be a noninvasive, safe and effective therapy agent without apparent side effects. Numerous studies have shown that PEMFs possess the potential to become a stand-alone or adjunctive treatment modality for treating musculoskeletal disorders.

Condyloma acuminatum is a sexually transmitted disease caused by human papillomavirus infection, which mostly occurs in the external genitalia, vulva, perianal, and the Intraurethral condyloma acuminatum is relatively rare. Treatment of urethral warts present a challenge especially if the proximal urethra is involved. Here, we report a case of intractable urethral condyloma acuminatum involving the urethral meatus and mid penile urethra with scar.

However, the conventional reverse shoulder prosthesis can not meet individual needs and RSA has been associated with a relatively high complication rate. Therefore, implant design and surgical reconstruction technique warrant further study.
