Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in development and progression of various cancers. To investigate the relationship between three tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs13252298, rs1016343, and rs1456315) in lncRNA prostate cancer-associated noncoding RNA 1 () and lung cancer (LC) risk, we conducted this study. First, we performed a case-control study, including 576 LC patients and 612 cancer-free controls. Second, a meta-analysis was used to evaluate the association of selected SNPs with risk of overall cancer. We found that rs13252298 and rs1456315 were strongly correlated with risk of LC, nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and lung adenocarcinoma. For rs13252298, individuals carrying GG genotype had increased risks of LC compared with those carrying AA genotype (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.565, 95% CI = 1.091-2.245, = 0.015). A significant result was also found in recessive model with adjusted OR of 1.719. Individuals with GG genotype of rs1456315 were at increased risks of LC compared with those carrying AA genotype. Similar results were found in NSCLC patients. Meta-analysis showed that rs1016343 and rs13252298 were associated with overall cancer. But for rs1016343, no significant association was observed in Asians. In conclusion, rs13252298 and rs1456315 in may be genetic susceptibility factors for LC in Chinese population. These results need to be confirmed by further studies.

Background: Uncertainty in the diagnosis of lung nodules is a challenge for both patients and physicians. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly being integrated into medical imaging to assist diagnostic procedures. However, the accuracy of AI systems in identifying and measuring lung nodules on chest computed tomography (CT) scans remains unclear, which requires further evaluation.

Nonetheless, to date, there has been a scarcity of research addressing predictive factors for lung metastasis risk in osteosarcoma.

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common histological subtype of nonsmall-cell lung cancer. Herein, a multiomics method, which combined proteomic and N-glycoproteomic analyses, was developed to analyze the normal and cancerous bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BALFs) from six LUAD patients to identify potential biomarkers of LUAD. The data-independent acquisition proteomic analysis was first used to analyze BALFs, which identified 59 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs).

This study determined the characteristics of patients with early-stage melanoma (IA-IIA) who later had stage IV recurrence. We retrospectively examined 880 melanoma patients and identified those who progressed to stage IV disease from an initial early-stage (n = 50). We observed a median latent period of 4 years between early-stage diagnosis and metastatic disease.

Background: In Taiwan, as the population ages, palliative care services (PCS) have expanded significantly to include comprehensive benefit plans for critically ill individuals, supported by reimbursements from the National Health Insurance program. However, incorporating palliative care into the medical management of these patients presents several challenges. We aim to evaluate the effects of palliative care interventions on medical resources in end-of-life scenarios, to promote earlier palliative care access and provide high-quality healthcare services for patients.
