AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the role of CTRP9 and PTX-3 in diagnosing and predicting outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) among 137 patients with chest pain.
- It found that ACS patients had lower levels of CTRP9 and higher levels of PTX-3 in their blood compared to those with non-cardiac chest pain.
- The combined assessment of CTRP9 and PTX-3 was shown to enhance diagnostic accuracy and predict poor prognosis in ACS patients, with both proteins identified as independent risk factors for negative outcomes.
Article Abstract
The present study aimed to explore the diagnostic value and prognostic significance of C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 9 (CTRP9) combined with pentraxin-3 (PTX-3) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A total of 137 patients with coronary heart disease and chest pain were included. Among them, seventy-nine patients with ACS were allocated into a study group and fifty-eight patients with non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) were allocated into a control group. The serum CTRP9, PTX-3 levels were quantified by ELISA, and their correlation with other ACS-related indexes, diagnostic value for ACS and predictive significance for poor prognosis were analyzed. In addition, the risk factors of the poor prognosis of ACS patients were studied. CTRP9 was lowly expressed and PTX-3 was highly expressed in the serum of ACS patients. CTRP9 was negatively correlated with cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) (P<0.05), while PTX-3 was positively correlated with them (P<0.05). Combined detection of CTRP9 and PTX-3 was of high value in the diagnosis and prognosis of ACS patients. In addition, CTRP9 and PTX-3 were independent risk factors for the poor prognosis of ACS. Patients with ACS had lower CTRP9 expression and higher PTX-3 expression than those without ACS. Moreover, the combined detection of CTRP9 and PTX-3 can better evaluate the diagnosis and prognosis of ACS patients.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: The relationships between pectoralis muscle parameters and outcomes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remain uncertain.
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library from 1 January 2019 to 1 May 2024 to identify non-overlapping studies evaluating pectoralis muscle-associated index on chest CT scan with clinical outcome in COVID-19 patients. Random-effects and fixed-effects meta-analyses were performed, and heterogeneity between studies was quantified using the I2 statistic.
Performance of Creatinine and Cystatin-Based Equations on Estimating Measured Glomerular Filtration Rate in People with Hematological and Solid Cancers.

Background: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) assessment is important in clinical practice, with implications for diagnosis, prognostication, and drug dosing. People with cancer are at risk of imprecision in GFR estimation. This cross-sectional study evaluated the performance of various creatinine and cystatin C-based equations in comparison to measured GFR (mGFR) in people with cancer.

Objective: Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte -Associated Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) are presently considered as prognostic markers and therapeutic targets in numerous human malignancies. The goal of this study was to determine whether PD-L1 and CTLA-4 might be used to predict patients' survival in Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC).
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 100 primary TNBC cases that had surgical resection at the Oncology Center of Mansoura University (OCMU), Faculty of Medicine, Egypt.

Objective: Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1, encoded by PDCD1) regulatory network participates in glioblastoma multiforme development. However, such a network in trastuzumab-resistant human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer remains to be determined. Accordingly, this study was aimed to explore the PD-1 regulatory network responsible for the resistance of breast cancer cells to trastuzumab through a bioinformatics approach.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of liver cancer, has a significant mortality rate, largely due to late diagnosis. Recent advances in medical research have demonstrated the potential of biomarkers for early detection. Moreover, the discovery and use of prognostic biomarkers offer a ray of hope in the fight against liver cancer.
