Lung Cancer

Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is one of the most common biomarkers of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and is widely used in lung cancer screening. But its specificity is affected by many factors. Using residual correction and machine learning, corrected NSE and its reference range were constructed based on metabolic factors and smoking history affecting NSE in the training set of 48,009 healthy individuals recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University.

Background: Several viruses have been linked to Alzheimer disease (AD) by independent lines of evidence.
Method: Whole genome and whole exome sequences (WGS/WES) derived from brain (3,404 AD cases, 894 controls) and blood (15,612 AD cases, 24,544 controls) obtained from European ancestry (EU), African American (AA), Mexican (HMX), South Asian Indian (IND), and Caribbean Hispanic (CH) participants of the Alzheimer's Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP) and 276 AD cases 3,584 controls (all EU) from the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) that did not align to the human reference genome were aligned to viral reference genomes. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) for viral DNA load was conducted using PLINK software and regression models with covariates for sex, age, ancestry principal components, and tissue source.

Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common type of scoliosis, affecting 1-4% of adolescents. The Scoliosis Research Society-22R (SRS-22R), a health-related quality-of-life instrument for AIS, has allowed orthopedists to measure subjective patient outcomes before and after corrective surgery beyond objective radiographic measurements. However, research has revealed that there is no significant correlation between the correction rate in major radiographic parameters and improvements in patient-reported outcomes (PROs), making it difficult to incorporate PROs into personalized surgical planning.
