Systemic inflammatory response index improves prognostic predictive value in intensive care unit patients with sepsis.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Nantong University Hospital, Nantong, Jiangsu, People's Republic of China.
Sepsis is a severe infectious disease with high mortality. However, the indicators used to evaluate its severity and prognosis are relatively complicated. The systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI), a new inflammatory indicator, has shown good predictive value in chronic infection, stroke, and cancer.

Department of Haematology, First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, No. 58 Zhongshan Er Road, Guangzhou, 510000, Guangdong, China.
Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to create a risk assessment model (RAM) for predicting venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Chinese patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who are taking immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs).
- The research involved analyzing data from 1,334 MM patients across 16 centers in China and identified key factors such as diabetes and previous VTE history that increase the risk of developing VTE.
- The new RAM achieved better predictive performance compared to existing methods, which can help inform VTE prevention strategies for this specific patient population.

School of Public Health, Nantong University, Nantong, Jiangsu.
Article Synopsis
- * The analysis included 15 studies with over 11,000 patients, showing that smokers have a significantly higher risk of developing PIs (odds ratio of 1.498) compared to non-smokers.
- * Overall, the findings indicate that both current and former smokers are nearly 1.5 times more likely to develop pressure injuries than those who have never smoked.

Potential therapeutic target and independent prognostic marker of TROP2 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
Head Neck
October 2013
Department of Otorhinolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery, Nantong University Hospital, Nantong, Jiangsu, China.
Background: The human trophoblastic cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) gene is associated with the development of malignancies, but its expression in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and its relationship with clinical characteristics of the disease remain undetermined.
Methods: Expression of TROP2 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry with a self-made anti-TROP2 antibody in laryngeal SCC tissue microarrays.
Results: Elevated expression of TROP2 was detected in laryngeal SCC tissues compared with adjacent noncancerous tissues.
Promoting lumbar spinal fusion by adenovirus-mediated bone morphogenetic protein-4 gene therapy.

April 2007
Department of Orthopedics, Nantong University Hospital, Nantong 226001, China.
Objective: To determine whether an adenoviral construct containing bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) gene can be used for lumbar spinal fusion.
Methods: Twelve New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups, 8 in the experimental group and 4 in the control group. Recombinant, replication-defective type 5 adenovirus with the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter and BMP-4 gene (Ad-BMP-4) was used.
