Causal genes identification of giant cell arteritis in CD4+ Memory t cells: an integration of multi-omics and expression quantitative trait locus analysis.

Background: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a prevalent artery and is strongly correlated with age. The role of CD4+ Memory T cells in giant cell arteritis has not been elucidated.

Method: Through single-cell analysis, we focused on the CD4+ Memory T cells in giant cell arteritis.

PMAIP1-mediated glucose metabolism and its impact on the tumor microenvironment in breast cancer: Integration of multi-omics analysis and experimental validation.

Background: Glucose metabolism in breast cancer has a potential effect on tumor progression and is related to the immune microenvironment. Thus, this study aimed to develop a glucose metabolism-tumor microenvironment score to provide new perspectives on breast cancer treatment.

Method: Data were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus and UCSC Xena databases, and glucose-metabolism-related genes were acquired from the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis database.

Increasing the tumour targeting of antitumour drugs through anlotinib-mediated modulation of the extracellular matrix and the RhoA/ROCK signalling pathway.

Anlotinib has strong antiangiogenic effects and leads to vessel normalization. However, the "window period" characteristic in regulating vessel normalization by anlotinib cannot fully explain the long-term survival benefits achieved through combining it with other drugs. In this study, through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and label-free quantitative proteomics analysis, we discovered that anlotinib regulated the expression of components of the extracellular matrix (ECM), leading to a significant reduction in ECM stiffness.

Identification and analysis of significant genes in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis-hepatocellular carcinoma transformation: Bioinformatics analysis and machine learning approach.

Purpose: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has been an increasingly significant contributor to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Understanding the progression from NASH to HCC is critical to early diagnosis and elucidating the underlying mechanisms.

Results: 5 significant prognostic genes related to NASH-HCC transformation were identified through algorithm selection, which were ME1, TP53I3, SOCS2, GADD45G and CYP7A1.

Catalytic ozonation of reverse osmosis concentrate from coking wastewater reuse by surface oxidation over Mn-Ce/γ-AlO: Effluent organic matter transformation and its catalytic mechanism.

Degradation of organics in high-salinity wastewater is beneficial to meeting the requirement of zero liquid discharge for coking wastewater treatment. Creating efficient and stable performance catalysts for high-salinity wastewater treatment is vital in catalytic ozonation process. Compared with ozonation alone, Mn and Ce co-doped γ-AlO could remarkably enhance activities of catalytic ozonation for chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal (38.

Exploration of SERPINA family functions and prognostic value in breast cancer based on transcriptome and in vitro analysis.

Breast cancer poses a significant risk to women worldwide, yet specific role of SERPINA gene family in breast cancer remains unclarified. Data were collected from online databases. SERPINA family gene expression was presented, and prognosis value was evaluated.

Curative Effect of Yangxin Dingji Capsule Combined With Mexiletine Hydrochloride on Postoperative Arrhythmia and Its Influences on the Vascular Endothelial Function in Coronary Bifurcation Lesions.

Objective: The aim of the study is to explore the curative effect of Yangxin Dingji capsule combined with mexiletine hydrochloride on postoperative ventricular arrhythmia (VA) and its influences on vascular endothelial function in coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL).

Methods: A total of 110 patients with CBL admitted to the hospital were enrolled as research subjects between January and December 2021. According to the random number table method, they were divided into a combination group and control group, with 55 cases in each group.

[Influence of preventive surgery intervention on life quality of patients with advanced schistosomiasis].

Objective: To investigate the influence of preventive pericardial devascularization on the life quality of patients with advanced schistosomiasis.

Methods: The clinical data of advanced schistosomiasis patients who received the preventive pericardial devascularization from January 2000 to December 2009 (140 cases) were collected and analyzed retrospectively, and other 81 cases without preventive pericardial devascularization served as controls. Results Compared with that of the control group, the long term upper gastrointestinal rebleeding within 3 years of the study group was much fewer (P < 0.
