Colorectal cancer is a significant health challenge globally, with its prognosis associated with the profile of molecular biomarkers. Recently, the role of iron death-associated long non-coding (lnc)RNAs in cancer development has garnered attention; however, their expression patterns and prognostic value in colorectal cancer remain poorly elucidated. The present study aimed to assess the expression levels of iron death-related lncRNAs in colorectal cancer tissues and evaluate their relationship with patient outcomes through a comprehensive meta-analysis.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common malignant liver tumor. It is an aggressive disease with high mortality rate. In this study, we investigated a new prognosis-related gene index (PRGI) that can predict the survival and efficacy of immunotherapy in patients with HCC.

As far as we know, no biomarker has been widely accepted for early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of GC. The purpose of this study is to find potential biomarkers to predict the prognosis of GC.

Objective: To investigate the effects of baicalein (Bai) on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and its mechanism in mice.
Methods: Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups by random number table: namely sham group, I/R group and Bai+I/R group, with 8 mice in each group. Intestinal I/R induced lung injury model was reproduced by clamping superior mesenteric artery for 90 minutes, followed by reperfusion.

Within the field of mental health, the concept of predisposition or that of being "at risk" has been properly addressed by Mrazek and Haggarty. This period prior to clear diagnosis of psychosis has been referred by several names like 'premorbid' phase, at-risk individuals, predisposed individuals, prodromal phase, etc. The premorbid phase is perhaps the most debated term in this list because this term suggests that the morbidity arises only in the overt illness phase.

Objective: To investigate the clinical value of serum anti-Ku86 in early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Methods: Expression levels of Ku86 protein in HCC and adjacent normal liver tissues were detected by Western blotting. Serum anti-Ku86 level in 83 patients with early HCC and 124 patients with liver cirrhosis were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

In the title coordination polymer, [Ni(C(5)H(4)NO(2)S)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](n), the Ni(II) ion is located on an inversion centre and is octa-hedrally coordinated by two N and two O atoms of four symmetry-related and deprotonated pyridine-4-sulfinate (ps) ligands together with two water mol-ecules in axial positions. The ps(-) anions, acting as μ(2)-bridging ligands, link neighbouring Ni(II) ions into a chain structure along the c axis. These polymeric chains are extended into a three-dimensional framework via inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds with participation of the water mol-ecules.

The title mononuclear complex, [Zn(C(8)H(11)N(2)O(3)S)(2)], is a zinc salt of 2-(2-pyridylmethyl-amino)ethane-sulfonic acid (Hpmt). The Zn(II) ion is located on an inversion centre and is octahedrally surrounded by four N and two O atoms. The deprotonated pmt(-) anion coordinates in a facial arrangement through its two N atoms and one of the sulfonate O atoms.

The title compound, (C(13)H(16)N(2))[NiCl(4)] or (H(2)bpp)·NiCl(4) [bpp is 1,3-bis-(4-pyrid-yl)propane], is isostructural with its already reported Cu, Zn and Hg analogues. The structure consists of a doubly charged (H(2)bpp)(2+) cation and a tetra-hedral [NiCl(4)](2-) dianion. Both pyridyl N atoms are protonated and form a (H(2)bpp)(2+) cation which adopts an anti-anti conformation with a dihedral angle of 6.

The title compound [Cd(C(8)H(11)N(2)O(3)S)(2)](n), is a two-dimensional coordination polymer based on a Cd(2+) atom and deprotonated 2-(2-pyridylmethyl-amino)ethanesulfonic acid (Hpmt). The complex has mol-ecular symmetry C(i) as a consequence of the Cd(II) being located on an inversion centre. Two N atoms of each pmt(-) ligand coordinate to the Cd(2+) ion and its sulfonate O atom bonds to an adjacent Cd(2+) ion.

In the title compound, [Cu(2)(C(8)H(11)N(2)O(3)S)(2)Cl(2)], the Cu atoms are five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry by three donor atoms of the deprotonated anionic 2-(2-pyridylmethyl-amino)ethanesulfonate (pmt) ligand and two Cl atoms. The Cl atoms bridge two Cu atoms, giving a binuclear structure; the centroid of the Cu(2)Cl(2) ring lies on a crystallographic center of inversion. The complex is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking inter-actions [average inter-planar distance = 3.
