Objective: To analyze the clinical features and laboratory indicators in patients with solid malignant tumor-associated venous thromboembolism (Ta-VTE), and to study the risk factors for Ta-VTE.

Methods: The hospitalized patients with VTE in Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from January to December 2020 were enrolled, and they were divided into Ta-VTE group and pure VTE group based on the presence or absence of solid malignant tumor. The differences in clinical data and laboratory indicators between the two groups were analyzed, and the indicators with significant differences were included in logistic regression model to analyze the risk factors of Ta-VTE.

Purpose: To investigate the potential mechanisms of scutellarin on oral leukoplakia (OLK) by network pharmacology and further verify by cytology.

Methods: The potential targets of scutellarin acting on OLK were excavated through network pharmacology. PPI network was constructed, and the possible targets and pathways of scutellarin were predicted by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the microlymphangiogenesis, microangiogenesis, and combined detection of the programmed cell death-1 protein (PD-1)/ki67 in patients with gastric cancer as well as the disease prognosis.

Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the microlymphatic density (MLD) and microvessel density (MVD) in the central and peripheral zones in 92 cases of gastric cancer, along with the number of PD-1- and ki67-positive tumor cells.

Results: The central zone of the gastric cancer tissue contained fewer atretic cord-like lymphatic vessels than the peripheral zone, while the peripheral zone contained an increased number of lymphatic vessels compared with the central zone.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to explore the histopathological features of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in the stomach lining, particularly its progression to intraepithelial neoplasia.
  • Researchers analyzed biopsy specimens from 2,457 individuals with Hp infection using histology and immunohistochemistry to categorize the stages of gastric mucosal damage.
  • The findings show a progression through five stages of mucosal damage, from initial infection to severe conditions like adenocarcinoma, highlighting the need for careful observation of Hp's effects on gastric health.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common malignant neoplasm of the mouth. Some studies have found that multiple microRNAs (miRs) participate in OSCC physiological and pathological processes.

Methods: We explored the mechanism of action of miR-134 in OSCC involving the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Purpose: To optimize visiting sequence and time-interval appointment mode to reduce waiting time of re-visiting patients in department of stomatology based on clinical data repository.

Methods: Waiting time data of re-visiting patients in department of stomatology was collected and divided into 2 groups. A total of 70897 patients from July 2014 to September 2014 were enrolled as experimental group (group year-2014), while 63960 patients from July 2013 to September 2013 were used as control group (group year-2013).

Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of thermal acupuncture needle muscular stimulation for treatment of knee osteoarthritis patients.

Methods: A total of 120 outpatients with knee osteoarthritis were randomly and equally divided into control and treatment groups. Patients of the treatment group were treated by inserting the acupuncture needles into the attached sites of the quadriceps femoris, musculus vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, etc.

Purpose: To study the expression of PD-L1 and PD-L2mRNA in oral lichen planus(OLP) patients' peripheral blood and focal mucosa, and the different expression of target molecules in gene level in different clinical and pathological OLP groups.

Methods: The expression of PD-L1 and PD-L2 mRNA in OLP patients, which included 35 reticular and 25 atrophic-erosive OLP patients, 38 cases without dysplasia and 22 cases with dysplasia, was examined by real-time PCR. Peripheral blood and mucosa from 10 volunteers were used as control.

Background: Oral verrucous hyperplasia (VH) and verrucous carcinoma (VC) are two clinicopathologically distinctive oral verrucous lesions. The objective of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological features of the two verrucous lesions and estimate their relationship from China.

Methods: Retrospective review of two series of patients with histologically confirmed VH (n = 121) and VC (n = 56) between 1996 and 2009 in our hospital were conducted.

Background: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a T-cell-mediated chronic autoimmune disease whose precise etiology is unknown. The recently identified costimulatory programmed death-1 (PD-1) molecule and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, have been identified as CD28-B7 family molecules and constitute a regulatory pathway of potential therapeutic use in immune-mediated diseases.

Methods: We examined the expression of two ligands of PD-1 at both the protein and gene level in the focal mucosa and peripheral blood of OLP patients using immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR.
