Immunohistochemical co-expression of PAX2 and CAIX predicts better prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma after nephrectomy: A retrospective observational study.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a lethal malignancy with high metastatic probability. Paired box 2 gene product (PAX2) carbonic anhydrase IX were biomolecules closely linked with ccRCC development and outcomes of multiple malignancies. We aim to explore the role of immunohistochemical staining of PAX2 and CAIX to predict ccRCC prognosis after nephrectomy.

Evaluating the efficacy and timing of blood purification modalities in early-stage hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis treatment.

Hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) is characterized by a violent cytokine storm-driven inflammation and is associated with a predisposition to severe disease. The treatment strategy for HTG-AP consists mainly of conventional symptomatic and lipid-lowering treatments. For early-stage HTG-AP, blood purification (BP) can rapidly and effectively reduce serum triglyceride and inflammatory cytokine levels, block the development of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and improve patient outcomes.

Comparison of Ibuprofen with Ketorolac on the Control of Renal Colic Pain: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Studies.

Purpose: The comparison of ibuprofen with ketorolac remains controversial for the pain control of renal colic. We therefore conduct this meta-analysis to compare the analgesic efficacy of ibuprofen with ketorolac for renal colic.

Methods: We have searched PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases through December 2022 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the analgesic efficacy of ibuprofen in comparison with ketorolac for renal colic.
