Background: RNA binding proteins (RBPs) have previously been demonstrated to be involved in the initiation and development of human cancers. However, its role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is not yet clear. The study was intended to explore the diagnostic and prognostic value of RBPs in ccRCC via bioinformatics methods of public datasets.

The hepatic echinococcosis is an anthropozoonosis and caused by the larva of . The main pathogenic type of in China is and , which cause cystic echinococcosis and alveolar echinococcosis respectively. At present, the treatment of hepatic echinococcosis has made great progress, but there are still some difficulties in the treatment of complex echinococcosis, especially of the cases existing one or more complications, and the focus of infection encroaching the hepatic portal, important vessels and bile vessel.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore the link between gallbladder diseases and hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in children by analyzing clinical data from a hospital over five years.
  • Out of 51 child patients, a significant number had gallbladder-related complications, with 78.43% showing symptoms and 58.82% experiencing complications after surgery.
  • Key factors influencing gallbladder complications included the classification of the disease, liver segment involvement, and characteristics of lesions, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and management in affected patients.

Aim: Recently, many reports showed that the pretransplant neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) may be correlated with the prognosis of patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT) for hepatocellular cancer (HCC). However, their results still remained controversial. Thus we performed a meta-analysis of 13 studies to estimate the prognostic value of pretransplant NLR.

Objective: To study different effects of Herba Lycopodii (HL) Alcohol Extracted Granule combined methylprednisolone on behavioral changes, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression levels, and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor levels in rats with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Methods: Male adult SD rats were randomly divided into five groups, i.e.

Objective: To study the effect of methylprednisolone on spinal cord injury rats' neural behavior and the expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA).

Methods: To establish rat model of spinal cord injury (SCI), the rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, SCI group and methylprednisolone group (n = 16 in each group). Eight rats were used for the behavioral assessment and BDNF measurement,the other eight animals was for the NMDA receptor test in each group.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the impact of a Chinese herbal treatment called gold belt (GB) on behavioral changes and specific brain factors in rats with spinal cord injuries (SCI).
  • Adult male rats were divided into three groups: a sham group, a SCI group, and a GB treatment group, with motor function assessed and spinal cord tissues analyzed after treatment.
  • Results showed that GB treatment significantly improved motor function, increased the number of BDNF positive neurons, and reduced NMDA receptor levels, indicating its potential role in enhancing recovery and neuroplasticity after spinal cord injury.
