Objectives: This study aimed to comprehensively investigate the molecular landscape of gastric cancer (GC) by integrating various bioinformatics tools and experimental validations.

Methodology: GSE79973 dataset, limma package, STRING, UALCAN, GEPIA, OncoDB, cBioPortal, DAVID, TISIDB, Gene Set Cancer Analysis (GSCA), tissue samples, RT-qPCR, and cell proliferation assay were employed in this study.

Results: Analysis of the GSE79973 dataset identified 300 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), from which COL1A1, COL1A2, CHN1, and FN1 emerged as pivotal hub genes using protein-protein interaction network analysis.

Background: Distinctive heterogeneity characterizes diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), one of the most frequent types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Mitochondria have been demonstrated to be closely involved in tumorigenesis and progression, particularly in DLBCL.

Objective: The purposes of this study were to identify the prognostic mitochondria-related genes (MRGs) in DLBCL, and to develop a risk model based on MRGs and machine learning algorithms.

Background: In the intensive care unit (ICU), complex medical conditions require specialized care; the threat of antibiotic resistance is significant due to frequent antibiotic use. This study investigates the pivotal role of culture sensitivity testing in shaping antibiotic prescription practices and patient outcomes in ICUs.

Materials And Methods: By using a prospective observational-analytical design, medical data from 640 patients at a Karachi hospital for one year in 2022 were utilized.

Background: Previous studies on the prevalence and prognosis of nutritional status in valvular heart disease (VHD) were primarily limited to aortic stenosis. The nutritional status of other types of VHDs remained an underexplored area.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition risk in different types of VHD and investigate the association between malnutrition risk and adverse clinical events.

Current approaches to oral cancer diagnosis primarily involve physical examination, tissue biopsy, and advanced computer-aided imaging techniques. However, despite these advances, patient survival rates have not significantly improved. Hence, there is a critical need to develop minimally invasive tools with high sensitivity and specificity to improve patient survival and quality of life.
