Association between forced expiratory volume in 1 s and relapse-free survival in operable non-small cell lung cancer: a prospective cohort study with propensity score overlap weighting.
BMJ Open
December 2024
Division of Cardiac Rehabilitation, Department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Xiangya Hospital Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China
Objectives: Investigate the correlation between the percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1%pred) and survival outcomes, namely relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), in patients diagnosed with operable early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Design: Prospective observational study.
Setting: Clinical settings in Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Hunan, China.
The Red Cell Distribution Width to Albumin Ratio: A Novel Prognostic Indicator in Hepatitis B Virus-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

The prognostic significance of the red blood cell distribution width to albumin ratio (RAR) spans various diseases, yet its utility as a biomarker for hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC) remains unclear. We retrospectively studied 1,413 patients with HBV-HCC. Receiver operating characteristic curves identified optimal RAR cut-offs, stratifying patients into H-RAR and L-RAR groups.

Background: Depression is a frequent but often underdiagnosed comorbid disorder in dialysis patients. The Beck Depression Inventory-Second Edition (BDI-II) is a reliable and valid instrument for depression screening but is relatively long for repeated use in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to compare the BDI-II with the shorter questionnaires Beck Depression Inventory-FastScreen (BDI-FS), the depression subscale of the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS-D), the Mental Health (MH) scale of the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and two items of the MH ('So down in the dumps that nothing could cheer you up' and 'Downhearted and blue') to determine the most efficient instruments for screening depressive symptoms in dialysis patients.

Harvesting grapes requires a large amount of manual labor. To reduce the labor force for the harvesting job, in this study, we developed a robot harvester for the vine grapes. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that using multi-cameras, as well as artificial intelligence (AI) object detection methods, to detect the thin stem and decide the cut point.

The function of transmembrane protein 199 (TMEM199) in cancer development has rarely been studied thus far. We report the nuclear localization of the TMEM199 protein and further analyzed the truncated fractions that mediate its nuclear localization. Cut&Tag assay globally explores the nuclear-located TMEM199 functions and tests its influence on the immune checkpoint PD-L1 and .
