Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing Reveals a Large Novel β-Thalassemia Deletion that Removes the Entire Gene.

β-Thalassemia (β-thal) is one of the most common monogenic recessive inherited diseases worldwide. The mutation spectrum of β-thal has been increasingly broadened by various genetic testing methods. The discovery and identification of novel and rare pathogenic thalassemia variants enable better disease prevention, especially in high prevalence regions.

[Quality evaluation of Curcumae Radix from different origins based on UPLC characteristic chromatogram, multicomponent content, and chemometrics].

In this study, UPLC was used to establish the characteristic chromatograms of Curcumae Radix from different origins(LSYJ, WYJ, HSYJ, and GYJ) and the content determination method of 11 chemical components. The evaluation of characteristic chromatogram similarity, cluster analysis(CA), principal component analysis(PCA), and orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were combined to evaluate the quality of Curcumae Radix from four origins. LSYJ, WYJ, HSYJ, and GYJ showed 15, 17, 15, and 10 characteristic peaks, respectively, and 8 of the peaks were identified.

Abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated protein (ASPM) contributes to the progression of Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma (LSCC) by regulating CDK4.

Lung cancer is a type of malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Due to its complicated etiology and clinical manifestations, no significant therapeutic advance has been made. Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is the most common type of lung cancer.

Long-term outcomes of patients with esthesioneuroblastomas: A cohort from a single institution.

Objective: Esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare cancer. The purpose of this study was to review the long-term outcomes of patients with esthesioneuroblastomas (ENBs) who were treated at a single institution.

Materials And Methods: One hundred thirteen patients with biopsy-proven ENBs between June of 1979 and November of 2014 were retrospectively reviewed.

Spread patterns of lymph nodes and the value of elective neck irradiation for esthesioneuroblastoma.

Objectives: This study was aimed to characterize patterns of lymphatic spread and assess the value of prophylactic elective neck irradiation (ENI) for esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB).

Methods: A retrospectively analysis of 116 patients with newly diagnosed ENB at our institution over 35-year period was undertaken.

Results: 32 patients (28%) presented lymph node metastasis at initial diagnosis, the common sites involved were level II, Ib, level III and VIIa.

[Effect of moxibustion on hepatic glycogen and ultrastructure of exercise-induced fatigue rats].

Objective: To observe the effect of moxibustion of "Zusanli" (ST 36) on hepatic glycogen-level and ultrastructure changes in exercise-induced fatigue rats.

Methods: Thirty-three SD rats were randomly and equally divided into control, model and moxibustion groups. The fatigue model was established by forcing the rat to have a loaded exhaustion swim, once daily for 21 days.
