Although many publications have evaluated the correlation between dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) TaqIA polymorphism and Parkinson disease (PD), the results remain inconclusive. In order to further address the association between DRD2 TaqIA polymorphism and PD risk, we performed a meta-analysis of all eligible studies from more databases. Related studies were identified from six databases involving PubMed, Springer Link, Ovid, Chinese Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Chinese Biology Medicine (CBM) through Octorber 2018.

As an important member of the interleukin (IL)-1 family, IL‑33 plays a significant role in tumor progression. To explore this, we previously analyzed the association between IL‑33 expression and the prognosis of patients with glioma. However, the function of the IL‑33/ST2 axis in glioma remained unclear.

Article Synopsis
  • Cerebral infarcts in older adults can lead to cognitive impairment, and this study evaluates the use of quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) as a predictive tool for this risk.
  • The research involved EEG recordings and cognitive assessments over time, focusing on various brain wave patterns, particularly background rhythm frequency (BRF) and θ band power.
  • Results indicated that low BRF significantly increases the likelihood of cognitive impairment, alongside elevated θ band power, suggesting these qEEG measures could serve as early indicators for cognitive decline in patients with cerebral infarcts.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transanal drainage tube followed by laparoscopic surgery in management of malignant colorectal obstruction.

Methods: From March 2007 to October 2010, 37 patients with colorectal cancer manifesting acute complete mechanical obstruction were treated by ileus tube drainage. After irrigation and drainage ranging from 4 to 10 days, the radical operations and anastomosis were performed by laparoscopy.
