Background: The exact mechanism of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains unclear. This study was to clarify the expression of in glioma and its molecular mechanism, and to explore the possibility of as a potential therapeutic target of glioma and its clinical application value, so as to provide a new theoretical basis for the treatment of glioma.
Methods: Firstly, a dataset was established to analyze the expression of in different stages of glioma and its relationship with prognosis by using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, RNA-seq data, and survival data of glioma and normal control samples in gene expression profiling and interactive analysis (GEPIA). The genes co-expressed with were screened out, their differential expression between glioma and normal control group was analyzed, and their functions were analyzed by enrichment analysis. The TGGA database was used for data verification and analysis. The correlation between expression and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to analyze the relationship between expression and overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of glioma patients, and Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the independent factors affecting OS and PFS of glioma patients.
Results: The results of TCGA data analysis were as follows: The expression level of was different from that of different stages of glioma, namely, the expression level of between grade II and grade III, grade III and grade IV, and grade II and grade IV were significantly different (P<0.05). The results of gene-related survival analysis showed that KNL1 high expression and low expression were significantly different in OS, and the high expression group was associated with poor prognosis (P<0.05).
Conclusions: The expression can be an effective biological indicator of poor prognosis of glioma.

Background: COVID-19 was first identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, where it spread over a wide geographic area until it reached the status of a pandemic in 2020. We postulated that patients who were diagnosed with incidental COVID-19, and underwent surgery, did not have a worse outcome due to the COVID-19 virus compared to their counterparts who did not have the virus.
Methods: This retrospective study included surgical patients (COVID-19 incidentals and COVID-19 negatives) who were admitted to the surgical intensive care unit (SICU) at Tygerberg Academic Hospital between 1 May 2020 and 31 December 2021.

Acne vulgaris is the 8th most commonly prevailing skin disorder worldwide. Its pervasiveness has been predominant in juveniles, especially males, during adolescence and in females during adulthood. The lifestyle and nutrition adopted have been significantly reported to impact the occurrence and frequency of acne.

Background: Infertility was often considered a female issue, but male infertility emerged significantly after the Covid-19 pandemic. Hence, assessments are crucial for planning policies on health care and family planning and reasons thereof post vaccinations.
Material And Methods: The present study was a case-control, dual-centers, prospective study with normal sperm parameters.

Despite being designated as "noncarcinogenic" human papillomavirus (HPV) types, mono-infection with HPV6 or HPV11 has been found in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) at specific sites, including the larynx, penis, anus, and rarely, the lower female genital tract. The association between clinicopathologic features, viral status, and the carcinogenic mechanisms related to these low-risk HPVs remains unclear. The current study characterizes a series of low-risk HPV6 and HPV11-associated SCCs of the uterine cervix (6 cases) and vulva (2 cases).

Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a precursor lesion to biliary tract carcinoma. It is characterised by papillary growth within the bile ducts. The diagnosis and management of IPNB are challenging due to its varying presentations and overlapping features with other biliary diseases.
