Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a globally prevalent malignancy with significant morbidity and mortality, yet its heterogeneity poses challenges in treatment and prognosis. Recognizing the crucial role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in OC progression, this study leverages integrative multi-omics and machine learning to uncover TME-associated prognostic biomarkers, paving the way for more personalized therapeutic interventions.

Methods: Employing a rigorous multi-omics approach, this study analyzed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from OC and normal tissue samples, including high-grade serous OC (HGSOC) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO: GSE184880) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) OC cohort, utilizing the Seurat package to annotate 700 TME-related genes.

Background: Many published studies attempted to elucidate the implication of glucokinase regulator gene (GCKR) polymorphisms in the susceptibility to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but the results among them were still controversial.

Objective: This meta-analysis aims to precisely assess the relationship between the GCKR polymorphisms and the risk of NAFLD.

Methods: Systematic computerized searches in six databases were performed and updated on April 6, 2020.
