Recently, the rs41291957 polymorphism in the promoter region of miR-143/145 has been repeatedly investigated for its contribution to cancer susceptibility. However, the results remain conflicting rather than conclusive, which calls for further investigations. Therefore, we here conducted a case-control study and meta-analysis to explore the association between rs41291957 and cancer risk. In the case-control study, a total of 2277 cancer patients (lung, liver, gastric and colorectal cancers) and 800 normal controls were recruited, the genotyping of rs41291957 was performed with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and Sanger sequencing. In the meta-analysis, 5 previously published studies and our present study were included, the STATA 14.0 software was applied to conduct all statistical analyses. The results of case-control study showed that rs41291957 was significantly associated with the risk of gastric cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, and colorectal cancer in Hubei Han Chinese population. The results of meta-analysis demonstrated that rs41291957 was significantly associated with overall cancer risk, especially colorectal cancer risk and lung cancer risk. Collectively, the rs41291957 polymorphism of miR-143/145 may be a plausible susceptible locus for cancer risk, which should be validated in future studies with larger samples in different ethnic populations.

Aim: Many combinations of inflammation-based markers have been reported their prognostic ability. The prognostic value of albumin-to-gama-glutamyltransferase ratio (AGR), an inflammation-related index, has been identified for several cancers. However, the predictive value of AGR for high-grade glioma patients remains unclear.

Objective: To assess the association between prostate-specific antigen (PSA) density (PSAD) and prostate cancer mortality after a benign result on systematic transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective study used data from the Finnish Randomised Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (FinRSPC) collected between 1996 and 2020. We identified men aged 55-71 years randomised to the screening arm with PSA ≥4.

Background: Tracheal, bronchial, and lung cancers (TBL cancers) pose a significant global health challenge, with rising incidence and mortality rates, particularly in China. Studies from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD), 2021, can guide screening and prevention strategies for TBL cancer. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the burden of TBL cancers in China compared to global data.

Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) have a higher risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), however, the metabolic shifts during the UC-to-CRC transition remain elusive. In this study, an AOM-DSS-induced three-stage colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) model is constructed and targeted metabolomics analysis and pathway enrichment are performed, uncovering the metabolic changes in this transition. Spatial metabolic trajectories in the "normal-to-normal adjacent tissue (NAT)-to-tumor" transition, and temporal metabolic trajectories in the "colitis-to-dysplasia-to-carcinoma" transition are identified through K-means clustering of 74 spatially and 77 temporally differential metabolites, respectively.
