Objective: To study the mechanism and clinical value of miR-373 in multiple myeloma.
Methods: The expressions of miR-373 in multiple myeloma cells and normal plasma cells were detected by RT-PCR, and the biological function of miR-373 in tumor was analyzed by MTT assay, flow cytometry, luciferase experiment and tumorgenesis experiment.
Results: The miR-373 expression levels in MM patients and multiple myeloma cell lines (H929, MM1S and U266) were significantly lower than that in normal plasma cells detected by using RT-PCR (P<0.05). The proliferations of U266 and H929 cells transfected with miR-373 were significantly suppressed (P<0.05); the cell cycle of H929 cell transfected with miR-373 was arrested in the G/G phase(P<0.05) and the cell apoptosis was induced (P<0.05). Luciferase experiment revealed that miR-373 could significantly inhibit the expression of FOXM1 (P<0.05). In mouse tumorigenesis experiments, overexpression of miR-373 significantly inhibited tumor growth by decreasing FOXM1 levels (P<0.05).
Conclusion: miR-373 inhibits tumor growth in MM by direct targeting FOXM1, thus miR-373 shows an important clinical significance for the treatment of MM.

The amount of CD34 cells has been for decades the most important marker of autologous graft quality, but other graft cells, including various lymphocyte subsets, have gained some interest. This review attempts to summarize what is known about autograft cellular composition regarding post-transplant outcomes. The amount of CD34 cells in the graft is associated with tempo of platelet recovery.

Background: Patellar instability is frequently encountered by orthopaedic surgeons. One of the major risk factors of this condition is underlying trochlear dysplasia (TD). Recent trends have indicated the use of multiple procedures to correct patellar instability under these conditions.

Background: Many studies have examined the prevalence of acetabular version (AV) and femoral version (FV) abnormalities and their effect on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), but few have explored the prevalence and influence of combined version (CV) abnormalities.
Purpose: To (1) describe the distribution of AV, FV, and CV in the largest cohort to date and (2) determine the relationship between AV, FV, and CV and PROs after hip arthroscopy for FAIS.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

Background: Bilateral risk-reducing mastectomies (RRMs) have been proven to decrease the risk of breast cancer in patients at high risk owing to family history or having pathogenic genetic mutations. However, few resources with consolidated data have detailed the patient experience following surgery. This systematic review features patient-reported outcomes for patients with no breast cancer history in the year after their bilateral RRM.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the predictive value of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte count to monocyte count ratio (LMR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), platelet count multiplied by neutrophil count to lymphocyte count ratio (SII), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), packed cell volume (PCV), and plateletcrit (PCT) levels in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Materials And Methods: From March 2019 to August 2023, we screened 104 of 153 patients with stage III unresectable local advanced NSCLC and IV NSCLC who received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy at our hospital and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for analysis. All patients were collected for clinical information, including baseline blood indicator (NLR, PLR, LMR, SII, CRP, RDW, PCV and PCT) levels before PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy and blood indicator levels and imaging evaluation results every two cycles after PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy.
