Based on network pharmacology and molecular docking methods, this study explored its active compounds and confirmed its potential mechanism of action against Hand-foot skin reaction induced by tumor-targeted drugs. Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform and UniProt Database were used to obtain the active ingredients and target proteins of Spatholobi Caulis. All hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR)-related targets were obtained with the help of the Human Gene Database, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Humans (OMIM), DisGeNET and DrugBank databases.

Iron deficiency leads to reduced Hb synthesis in red blood cells and smaller red blood cell volume, ultimately resulting in iron-deficiency anemia. Although serum iron cannot independently evaluate iron storage or metabolism ability, it can reflect iron concentration in vivo and serve as a good predictor of iron-deficiency anemia.

The effect of PIEZO2 on the immune function and pathological features of gastric cancer remains to be explored. The Online database of cancer genes and GSE54129 have been used to analyze the clinical characteristics of PIEZO2 expression.

We used Mendelian Randomization (MR) to assess the links between Glycemic Traits and Melanoma. Pooled data from Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) were utilized to examine the relationships that exist between Fasting Insulin (n = 26), 2-h Glucose (n = 10), Fasting Glucose (n = 47), HbA1c (n = 68), and Type-2 Diabetes (n = 105) and Melanoma.

Background: Cancer pain, a common complication of this disease, has been widely treated by electroacupuncture in recent years. However, there are numerous treatment parameters that are not conducive to clinical translation applications. This study aims to summarize the stimulation parameters commonly used in electroacupuncture treating cancer pain by data mining and visualization techniques to provide a basis for the future acupuncture technology transformation and selection of optimal stimulation parameters.

Many studies have confirmed that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has unique advantages for treating CIPN. However, there is no standard TCM prescription in clinical practice or objective outcome index, and similar efficacy varies.
