Surgical repair of an emergent giant hepatic aneurysm with an abdominal aortic dissection: A case report.

Background: Hepatic artery aneurysm (HAA) is the second most common visceral aneurysm. A significant number of hepatic aneurysms are found accidentally on examination. However, their natural history is characterized by their propensity to rupture, which is very serious and requires urgent treatment.

The genomic distribution map of human papillomavirus in Western China.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been confirmed as the causative agent for cervical cancer. In this study, a total of 301 880 women were recruited from four different regions of Western China, with 301 880 exfoliated cervical cell samples collected from women for DNA isolation and purification. The HPV genotype was tested by polymerase chain reaction.

Comprehensive evaluation of risk factors for lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma.

With the increasing incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), it is important to risk-stratify patients who may have a more aggressive tumor biology. The present study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with PTC, which may provide a significant reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. In total, 1,045 patients with PTC [313 with PT microcarcinoma (PTMC) and 732 with non-PTMC] between August 2016 and August 2019 were investigated.

LncRNA HCG11 promotes proliferation and migration in gastric cancer via targeting miR-1276/CTNNB1 and activating Wnt signaling pathway.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is one common cancer which occurs in the stomach leading to high mortality around the world. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were found overexpressed or silenced in the occurrence and progression of multiple cancers including GC.

Method: The gene expression level in GC tissues and cells were analyzed by RT-qPCR.
