Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease prevalent in the elderly. Currently, the relationship between the senescence inhibitor Klotho and OA remains unclear. This study investigated the relationship between serum soluble Klotho (S-Klotho) and OA.

Background: Osteoporotic fractures (OPF) are fractures that occur with low-energy injuries or during daily activities, representing a serious consequence of osteoporosis (OP). With the worsening of population aging, the number of OPF patients continues to expand, causing a significant burden on families and society. Consequently, it is significant to diagnose and analyze OPF at the molecular level.

Achieving an early and precise diagnosis poses significant challenges. This study aims to elucidate the molecular pathways involved in RA pathogenesis by screening genes associated with its occurrence, analyzing the related molecular activities, and ultimately developing more effective molecular-level treatments for RA.

Immunotherapy plays an important role in the prognosis and survival of STS patients. However, there is insufficient evidence to confirm the prognostic value of m6A-related genes and to evaluate the efficacy of immunotherapy for STS.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key factors in the occurrence and development of many malignant tumors, and are involved in the prognosis of some patients.
Aim: To identify autophagy-related lncRNAs in melanoma that are crucial for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of melanoma patients.
Tumor occurrence, infiltration, and metastasis are significantly affected by the tumor microenvironment (TME). Increasing evidence has elucidated TME's clinical significance in prognostic assessment and immunotherapy efficacy. Nonetheless, no studies have reported the potential pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) function in TME immune cell infiltration.
