Patients with uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) may be susceptible to the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Long non-coding RNAs take on a critical significance in UCEC occurrence, development, and prognosis. Accordingly, this study aimed to develop a novel model related to COVID-19-related lncRNAs for optimizing the prognosis of endometrial carcinoma. The samples of endometrial carcinoma patients and the relevant clinical data were acquired in the Carcinoma Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. COVID-19-related lncRNAs were analyzed and obtained by coexpression. Univariate, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to establish a COVID-19-related lncRNA risk model. Kaplan-Meier analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), and functional enrichment annotation were used to analyze the risk model. Finally, the potential immunotherapeutic signatures and drug sensitivity prediction targeting this model were also discussed. The risk model comprising 10 COVID-19-associated lncRNAs was identified as a predictive ability for overall survival (OS) in UCEC patients. PCA analysis confirmed a reliable clustering ability of the risk model. By regrouping the patients with this model, different clinic-pathological characteristics, immunotherapeutic response, and chemotherapeutics sensitivity were also observed in different groups. This risk model was developed based on COVID-19-associated lncRNAs which would be conducive to the precise treatment of patients with UCEC.

Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a significant risk factor for glaucoma, causing structural and functional damage to the eye. Increased IOP compromises the metabolic and structural integrity of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons, leading to progressive degeneration and influencing the ocular immune response. This study investigated early cellular and molecular changes in the retina and optic nerve (ON) following ocular hypertension (OHT).

Objectives: As is well known, plaque morphology plays an important role in the hemodynamics of stenotic coronary arteries, thus their clinic outcomes. However, so far, there has been no research on how the cross-sectional shape of a stenotic lumen affects its hemodynamics. Therefore, this study aims to explore the impact of plaque cross-sectional shape on coronary hemodynamics under mild or moderate stenosis conditions (diameter stenosis degree ≤50 %).

Background: A number of efforts have been made to tailor behavioral healthcare treatments to the variable needs of patients with low back pain (LBP). The most common approach involves the STarT Back Screening Tool (SBST) to triage the need for psychologically informed care, which explores concerns about pain and addresses unhelpful beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors. Such beliefs that pain always signifies injury or tissue damage and that exercise should be avoided have been implied as psychosocial mediators of chronic pain and can impede recovery.

Background: There is debate as to whether kinematic TKA or mechanical alignment TKA is superior. Recent systematic reviews have suggested that kinematically aligned TKAs may be the preferred option. However, the observed differences in alignment favoring kinematic alignment may not improve outcomes (performance or durability) in ways that patients can perceive, and likewise, statistical differences in outcome scores sometimes observed in clinical trials may be too small for patients to notice.

Background: To reduce the mortality related to bladder cancer, efforts need to be concentrated on early detection of the disease for more effective therapeutic intervention. Strong risk factors (eg, smoking status, age, professional exposure) have been identified, and some diagnostic tools (eg, by way of cystoscopy) have been proposed. However, to date, no fully satisfactory (noninvasive, inexpensive, high-performance) solution for widespread deployment has been proposed.
