Article Synopsis
  • - This study developed a nomogram using cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) features to predict cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC).
  • - By analyzing differentially expressed genes and utilizing methods like LASSO and Cox regression, researchers identified five prognostic genes linked to poorer outcomes and incorporated them into a risk model validated through external datasets.
  • - The study found that higher CAF levels correlated with worse prognosis and greater immune cell infiltration, leading to a useful tool for assessing survival in LARC patients based on various prognostic factors.

Exposure to air pollution or lack of physical activity (PA) increases the risk of insomnia. However, evidence on joint exposure to air pollutants is limited, and the interaction of joint air pollutants and PA on insomnia is unknown. This prospective cohort study included 40,315 participants with related data from the UK Biobank, which recruited participants from 2006 to 2010.

Background/aims: Clinical characteristics of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with anemia have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of, risk factors for, and management of anemia in IBD patients and to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) in IBD patients with anemia.

Methods: We included two patient cohorts.

Aims: To evaluate the associations of baseline and long-term trajectories of lifestyle with incident ischaemic heart diseases (IHDs).

Methods And Results: 29 164 participants in the UK Biobank who had at least one follow-up assessment and were free of IHD at the last follow-up assessment were included. We constructed a weighted unhealthy lifestyle score though summing five lifestyle factors [smoking, physical activity, diet, body mass index, and sleep duration].

The functions of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2) in plant immunity are not well understood. In this study, OsUBC26, a rice ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, was characterized in the defence against Magnaporthe oryzae. The expression of OsUBC26 was induced by M.
