Background: Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that aberrant expression of deubiquitinating enzymes is associated with the initiation and progression of Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The publicly available TCGA database of breast cancer data was used to analyze the OTUD deubiquitinating family members that were correlated with survival of breast cancer and ovarian tumor domain-containing 2 (OTUD-2), or YOD1 was identified. The aim of present study was to assess YOD1 expression and function in human TNBC and then explored the underlying molecular events.

However, the disease is easy to be ignored due to its common occurrence, which may lead to a series of serious complications including sepsis and local abscess.
Case Presentation: In this case, a patient with sepsis, piriform fistula, deep neck abscess, and mediastinal abscess caused by a fishbone was reported.
Background: Although various clinical trials and real-life studies have tried to explore the value of nab-paclitaxel mono-chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer (MBC), the safety and efficacy of nab-paclitaxel remain unclear which need to be systematically evaluated.
Methods: Electronic searches for prospective clinical trials evaluating nab-paclitaxel monotherapy for MBC were performed. Requisite data were extracted, integrated and analysed from the included studies according to the different study designs using systematic review and meta-analysis.
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the predictive factors for hypoparathyroidism and its severity on the first postoperative day (POD1) after total thyroidectomy (TT) with or without central neck dissection (CND) in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
Methods: From February 2014 to February 2019, 2550 PTC patients were admitted to our department. PTC patients who underwent TT were enrolled in this study.
Background: Intraoperative imaging is used to address the challenges of parathyroidectomy, but no standard modality has been established. This study aimed to assess whether carbon nanoparticle injection is useful in localizing parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy.
Methods: Patients who underwent total parathyroidectomy (TPTX) between September 2015 and November 2018 were included.
Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is effective for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, the mechanism remains unclear.
Methods: The effects of RYGB on postprandial responses to three different diets (low carbohydrate (CH)-rich diet, high CH-rich diet, and fat-rich diet) of different nutritional composition in a Goto-Kakizaki (GK) diabetic rat model were assessed by measuring glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, incretin responses, and bile acid (BA) metabolism.
Results: GK-RYGB group rats lost weight and preferred low CH-rich diet, but there were no significant differences in BW among the different diets.
Objective: The study investigated the use of great curvature plication with duodenal-jejunal bypass (GCP-DJB) in a type 2 diabetic with obesity rat model.
Methods: Twenty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were given a high fat and sugar diet with subsequent intraperitoneal injection of a small dosage of streptozotocin (30 mg/kg) and randomly assigned to either GCP-DJB (n = 12) or Sham surgery (n = 10). Body weight, peripheral blood glucose, and fasting serum insulin were assayed, and insulin resistance index (IRI) was calculated, before and at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after surgery.
Background: Secondary Hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) requiring parathyroidectomy (PTX) occurs more commonly in patients with progressive chronic kidney disease and in those on long-term lithium therapy. Successful PTX often results in a dramatic drop of parathyroid hormone level, relieves the patient from clinical symptoms, and reduces mortality. However, there is an ongoing debate on the optimal surgical treatment of SHPT.

Methods: The "seed, environment, and soil" medical hypothesis was first raised, following review of the literatures, to demonstrate the possible causes of persistence or recurrence of SHPT after parathyroidectomy. Subsequently, the novel surgical strategy of PPTX was proposed, which involves comprehensive resection of the fibro-fatty tissues, including visible or invisible parathyroid, within the region surrounded by the thyroid cartilage, bilateral carotid artery sheath, and the brachiocephalic artery.
Comparison of outcome and side effects between conventional and transvaginal laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a meta-analysis.

Transvaginal laparoscopic cholecystectomy (TVC) is becoming an attractive alternative to conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CLC). We conducted a meta-analysis study to compare the outcome and side effects between TVC and CLC. Clinical studies on TVC with CLC as control were identified by searching PubMed and EMBASE (from 2007 to December 2013).
