Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a deadly type of esophageal cancer. Programmed cell death (PCD) is an important pathway of cellular self-extermination and is closely involved in cancer progression. A detailed study of its mechanism may contribute to ESCC treatment.

Objectives: To screen programmed cell death (PCD)-related genes in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) based on transcriptomic data and to explore its clinical value.

Methods: Differentially expressed PCD genes (DEPCDGs) were screened from ESCC transcriptome and clinical data in TCGA database. Univariate COX and LASSO COX were performed on prognostically DEPCDGs in ESCC to develop prognostic model.

Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a highly fatal malignancy with increasing incidence, and programmed cell death (PCD) plays an important role in homeostasis.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the ESCC of heterogeneity based on the PCD signatures for the diagnosis and treatment of patients.

Methods: The clinical information and RNA-seq data of patients with ESCC and the PCD-related genes set were used to identify PCD signatures.

The security of water resources is of great importance to long-term sustainability. In order to better ensure the security of water resources, a significant link is to conduct water resources security evaluation, which should be considered from many perspectives as it involves natural reserves, social production, the efficiency of use, and environmental protection. In this paper, a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process sort (AHPSort) II-entropy weight (EW) method for regional water resources security evaluation is proposed based on the security of visible water and virtual water.
