Effects of Floium ginkgo extract and tertram ethypyrazine sodium chloride injection on expression of inflammatory cytokines and cerebral infarction.

This experiment was carried out to observe and analyze the effect of floium ginkgo extract and tertram ethypyrazine sodium chloride injection in patients with cerebral infarction. A total of 200 patients diagnosed with cerebral infarction were enrolled in the study. They were randomly divided into a research group and control group, each containing 100 patients.

Periodontitis promotes the diabetic development of obese rat via miR-147 induced classical macrophage activation.

Background: Emerging evidence has indicated the bad effect of periodontal inflammation on diabetes control. However, the exact regulatory mechanisms within the association between periodontitis and diabetic development remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the function of microRNAs in regulating periodontitis-induced inflammation in an obese rat model.

ADH1B and CDH1 polymorphisms predict prognosis in male patients with non-metastatic laryngeal cancer.

In this study, we assessed the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes and the prognosis of laryngeal cancer (LC) patients. Thirty-seven SNPs in 26 genes were genotyped in 170 male Han Chinese patients with LC. The effects of the candidate genes on the prognosis of LC patients were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards regression models.

A Scoring System to Predict Arm Lymphedema Risk for Individual Chinese Breast Cancer Patients.

Background: Lymphedema (LE) is recognized as a common complication after axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Numerous studies have attempted to identify risk factors for LE. However, it is difficult to predict the probability of LE for an individual patient.

miR-138 suppresses the proliferation of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells by targeting Yes-associated protein 1.

Aberrant microRNA expression has been suggested to be an important event in the pathologies of various types of cancer. MicroRNA-138 (miR-138) has been reported to be frequently downregulated in various types of human cancer, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, the precise molecular mechanism of miR-138 underlying OSCC remains largely unknown.
