Meta-analysis reveals variations in microbial communities from diverse stony coral taxa at different geographical distances.

Coral-associated microbial communities play a vital role in underpinning the health and resilience of reef ecosystems. Previous studies have demonstrated that the microbial communities of corals are affected by multiple factors, mainly focusing on host species and geolocation. However, up-to-date, insight into how the coral microbiota is structured by vast geographic distance with rich taxa is deficient.

Cell division cycle associated 8: A novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma.

The cell division cycle associated 8 (CDCA8) is a crucial component of the chromosome passenger complex (CPC). It has been implicated in the regulation of cell dynamic localization during mitosis. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not clearly known.

Expression and prognostic analyses of the insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein family in human pancreatic cancer.

Background: Despite advances in early diagnosis and treatment, cancer remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein (IGF2BP) family has been reported to be involved in a variety of human malignant tumours. However, little is known about their expression and prognostic value in human pancreatic cancer.

Henoch-Schönlein purpura with intussusception and hematochezia in an adult: A case report.

Rationale: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a common disease in children. However, HSP with intussusception and intestinal obstruction has a low morbidity in children and is occasionally seen in adults. Herein, a rare adult case of HSP complicated with intussusception and hemafecia that was successfully treated with surgery is described.
