Background: Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) modification is increasingly recognized as critical in tumorigenesis and progression. This study identifies biomarkers linked to SUMOylation in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), aiming to advance therapeutic and prognostic strategies.

Methods: Employing PTC datasets and SUMO related genes (SRGs), we utilized univariate Cox regression for prognosis-related SRGs, conducted differential expression analyses, and integrated findings to pinpoint candidate genes.

Purpose: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common subtype of thyroid cancer. Recurrence makes the prognosis for some patients with PTC worse. Increasing evidence have suggested that N6-methyladenosine (mA) RNA methylation plays an important role in tumorigenesis.

Background: Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is now widely adopted for the treatment of liver tumors due to its minimally invasive advantages. However, multicenter, large-sample population-based laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy (LRPS) has rarely been reported. We aimed to assess the advantages and drawbacks of right posterior sectionectomy compared with laparoscopic and open surgery by meta-analysis.

Background: The aim of the study was to compare the benefits and drawbacks of laparoscopic left hepatectomy (LLH) in patients with previous abdominal surgery (PAS) with those in patients without PAS and confirm the safety and feasibility of LLH as a treatment for patients with hepatolithiasis and PAS.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective comparative study included 111 patients who underwent LLH for hepatolithiasis (with PAS, n = 41; without PAS, n = 70) from August 2017 to August 2019. Patients' general information, surgical outcomes, hospital stay duration, hospitalisation cost, post-operative laboratory data and post-operative complications were evaluated.

Background: Laparoscopic hepatectomy has been used widely due to its advantages as a minimally invasive surgery. However, multicenter, large-scale, population-based laparoscopic caudate lobe resection (LCLR) versus open caudate lobe resection (OCLR) has rarely been reported. We assessed the feasibility and safety of LCLR compared with OCLR using meta-analysis.

Purpose: Laparoscopic hepatectomy has been used widely in liver disease due to its advantages as a minimally invasive surgery. However, laparoscopic caudate lobe resection (LCLR) has been reported rarely. We aimed to investigate the safety and feasibility of LCLR by comparing it with open liver surgery.
