Critical role of Oas1g and STAT1 pathways in neuroinflammation: insights for Alzheimer's disease therapeutics.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a significant impact on an individual's health and places a heavy burden on society. Studies have emphasized the importance of microglia in the progression and development of AD. Interferon responses and Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) significantly function in neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases involving AD.

A population-based predictive model to identify patients with signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach who are most suitable for primary tumor resection.

Background: Though the survival benefit of primary tumor operation for patients with signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach is known, the specific characteristics of those patients who would profit from the operation are yet to be determined. To this end, a predictive model was developed to identify the conjecture that the survival profit from primary tumor operation would only be obtained by patients.

Method: The clinical data of the patients with signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, and then divided into operation and no-operation groups based on whether the patients underwent the primary tumor operation.
