Ki67 testing in the clinical management of patients with non-metastatic colorectal cancer: Detecting the optimal cut-off value based on the Restricted Cubic Spline model.

The proliferation of the biomarker Ki67 has been extensively studied in colorectal cancer (CRC). Although numerous Ki67 cut-off values have previously been reported, the optimal cut-off value remains unclear with previous studies providing contrasting results. The present retrospective cohort study aimed to determine the optimal cut-off value for CRC.

Poly[mu-aqua-mu4-naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylato-zinc(II)].

In the title complex, [Zn(C(12)H(6)O(4))(H(2)O)](n), a Zn(II) polymer based on naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylate (1,8-nap), the Zn(II) atoms adopt an elongated octahedral coordination geometry. A zigzag chain is formed by mu(2)-aqua ligands and mu(2)-carboxylate groups of the 1,8-nap ligands. Adjacent parallel chains are further linked by 1,8-nap ligands, forming a twisted two-dimensional layer structure along the (100) plane.
