Objective: The objectives of this systematic review are to describe features and specific application scenarios for current cancer survivorship care services of Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven digital health technologies (DHTs) and to explore the acceptance and briefly evaluate its feasibility in the application process.
Methods: Search for literatures published from 2010 to 2022 on sites MEDLINE, IEEE-Xplor, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Scopus systematically. The types of literatures include original research, descriptive study, randomized controlled trial, pilot study, and feasible or acceptable study.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate how leucine are associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients and the gender difference of this association.
Methods: We retrieved 1,031 consecutive patients with T2D who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria from the same tertiary care center and extracted clinical information from electronic medical record. Plasma leucine was measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most prevalent skin diseases around the world. Excessive histamine plays a critical role as an inflammatory factor in the pathogenesis of AD. Deregulated microRNAs (miRNAs) were involved in atopic dermatitis by targeting various genes.

Previous studies have shown that physically demanding work may affect mental performance and may be accompanied by impaired mental processing and decreased performance. In this study, 14 participants were recruited to perform laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) procedures in a virtual simulator.

Biomedical engineering has been one of the hottest fields in biology and engineering. As an important branch, the medical device has achieved significant progress in the past decades. As a useful method in evaluative bibliometrics, mapping knowledge has been used to explore the trend of one field.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAim: To investigate the effects of tetramethypyrazine (TMP) on proliferation and apoptosis of the human gastric carcinoma cell line 7901 and its possible mechanism of action.
Methods: The viability of TMP-treated 7901 cells was measured with a 3-(4, 5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay (MTT) and cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The distribution of cells in different phases of cell cycle after exposure of TMPs was analyzed with flow cytometry.
Objectives: The diastolic intraventricular velocity difference represents diastolic function of the left ventricle (LV). Here we analyzed the LV diastolic intraventricular velocity difference in patients with impaired LV function based on the ventricular flow rate profile by vector flow mapping.
Methods: Patients with LV diastolic dysfunction were divided into 2 groups: chronic heart failure with restricted filling (group 1; n = 27) and hypertension with abnormal relaxation (group 2; n = 34).
The purpose of this study is to provide a novel approach for measuring the spatial distribution of wall shear stress (WSS) in common carotid artery in vivo. WSS distributions were determined by digital image processing from color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) in 50 healthy volunteers. In order to evaluate the feasibility of the spatial distribution, the mean values of WSS distribution were compared to the results of conventional WSS calculating method (Hagen-Poiseuille formula).

Methods: By polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), -191G/C SNP in the promoter region of ABCA1 gene was analyzed in 204 patients with CAD and 114 control subjects and the distribution of the -191G/C genotypes compared between the two groups and also between different clinical phenotypes of CAD. The clinical indexes associated with CAD were also compared between the patients with the three genotypes of CAD.
Objective: To investigate the distribution of -477C/T single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the promoter region of ATP binding cassette transporter (ABCA1) gene and its relation to plasma lipid levels in normal Chinese Han population.
Methods: The three genotypes of -477C/T polymorphisms in the promoter region of the ABCA1 gene were detected using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 113 normal Chinese Han subjects.
Results: -477C/T SNP was present in normal Chinese Han population, and 37.
