Neoadjuvant adebrelimab combined with chemotherapy (cisplatin/carboplatin and etoposide) for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer: a study protocol of phase 2 trial (NIUS).

Introduction: Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly malignant neuroendocrine tumour, and concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the current recommended treatment for limited-stage SCLC. However, the overall survival (OS) of patients with SCLC remains poor. Therefore, improving the survival of patients with SCLC and benefitting more patients are urgent clinical requirements.

Therapeutic assessment of crystalloid fluid resuscitation in experimental military injury.

Background: A significant part of blast injury is accompanied by hemorrhagic shock (BS), while research on its fluid resuscitation strategies have not been reported. Although blood products are usually recommended in most resuscitation cases, they are less available in certain conditions. To this end, here, we focused on a widely used and more accessible fluid type- crystalloid fluid, in BS treatment.

Clinical features and direct medical cost of splenic injury in China: a cross-sectional study.

Objectives: This study analyses the clinical features and direct medical cost (DMC) of splenic injury during 2000-2013 in China.

Design: This was a cross-sectional study.

Methods: We used 'The No.

Featuring few essential Raman spectroscopic signatures between heterogeneous cells.

Here we demonstrate it is instructive to quantify cell Raman spectroscopy by sparse regularization. To be able to extract the specific spectral differences in a heterogeneous cell system with great spectroscopic similarities derived from many common biomolecular components, the maximum information entropy probability was proposed and exemplified by identifying normal lymphocytes from leukemia cells. The essential spectroscopic features were observed to locate at three Raman peaks whose spectral signatures were commensurate.

Correlation and Difference Between Raman Spectral Characteristic and Feature Evaluation for Leukocytes and Tumor Cells.

Tumor detection supported by Raman spectroscopy is becoming increasingly popular, yet the relevance of spectral variation and feature selection retains unclear. Here we determined the correlation and difference between spectral characteristic and feature evaluation for leukocytes and tumor cells. Some peaks were found to show noticeable spectral differences, and their intensity distributions were investigated, finding using log-normal distribution to describe Raman intensity pattern may be more appropriate.

TRPV1 activation inhibits phenotypic switching and oxidative stress in vascular smooth muscle cells by upregulating PPARα.

The proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is one of main reasons of vascular remodeling and is the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and other vascular diseases. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) is the specific receptor of capsaicin. TRPV1 has been previously reported to inhibit proliferation, migration and phenotypic switching, but the regulatory mechanisms and relevant signalling pathways are not clear.

Serum tau levels are increased in patients with hyperthyroidism.

Hyperthyroidism may cause cognitive decline and increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the major form of dementia; however, the underlying mechanism of this relationship is unclear. AD is associated with increased serum levels of tau. In this study, we investigated the relationship between serum thyroid hormones (THs) and tau.
