Causal associations of tea consumption on risk of pancreatic adenocarcinoma and the mediating role of vascular endothelial growth factor D levels.

Tea is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world. However, the association between tea and risk of pancreatic adenocarcinoma remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the causal relationship between tea consumption and risk of pancreatic adenocarcinoma and to explore their mediating effects.

Combining single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing, NK cell marker genes reveal a prognostic and immune status in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

The NK cell is an important component of the tumor microenvironment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), also plays a significant role in PDAC development. This study aimed to explore the relationship between NK cell marker genes and prognosis, immune response of PDAC patients. By scRNA-seq data, we found the proportion of NK cells were significantly downregulated in PDAC and 373 NK cell marker genes were screened out.

Establishment of Prognosis Nomogram for Primary Splenic Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma: A Study Based on SEER Database.

Despite being the most common primary tumor of the spleen, in the past, few studies have predicted the prognosis of primary spleen diffuse large B cell lymphoma. This study aimed to establish a nomogram prediction model of overall survival in primary DLBCL of the spleen. We screened out 347 patients with primary splenic DLBCL from surveillance, epidemiology, and end results database.

Establishment of a novel signature to predict prognosis and immune characteristics of pancreatic cancer based on necroptosis-related long non-coding RNA.

Background: Necroptosis plays an important role in tumorigenesis and tumour progression. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to be regulatory factors of necroptosis in various tumours. However, the real role of necroptosis-related lncRNAs (NRLs) and their potential to predict the prognosis of pancreatic cancer (PC) remain largely unclear.

Prediction of Prognosis and Molecular Mechanism of Ferroptosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Based on Bioinformatics Methods.

Background: As an iron-dependent type of programmed cell death, ferroptosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been linked to the prognosis of patients with HCC in a number of studies. Nevertheless, the predictive value of lncRNAs (FRLs) associated with ferroptosis in HCC has not been fully elucidated.

Organ-Sparing Pancreatectomy for Benign or Low-Grade Malignant Pancreatic Tumors: A Single-Center Experience with 101 Consecutive Patients.

BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy (DPS) are considered the standard procedures for pancreatic lesions. However, long-term metabolic consequences of PD and DPS applied for benign or low-grade malignant tumors need to be addressed. This study aimed to investigate the short- and long-term outcomes of organ-sparing pancreatectomy for benign or low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors in our institution.
