Comparison of two different flexible laryngeal airway masks in pediatric ophthalmic surgeries: A retrospective study.

This study aimed to compare the clinical effects of the Medis flexible laryngeal mask airway (FLMA) with those of the Ambu AuraFlex FLMA in pediatric ophthalmic surgery. A total of 80 patients, aged 1 to 5 years, in American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II, weighing ≥10 kg, and without any existing airway difficulties, were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into Group M (Medis FLMA) and Group A (Ambu AuraFlex FLMA).

Long non-coding RNA SNHG20 promotes ovarian cancer development by targeting microRNA-338-3p to regulate MCL1 expression.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) were reported to be associated with the development of ovarian cancer (OC). Increasing evidence demonstrated that lncRNA SNHG20 and miR-338-3p were involved in OC. However, the functional mechanism of lncRNA SNHG20 and miR-338-3p in OC development remains unknown.

Long Non-coding RNA MALAT1 Alleviates the Elevated Intraocular Pressure (Eiop)-induced Glaucoma Progression via Sponging miR-149-5p.

: Glaucoma is an optic neuropathic disease and contributed to the irreversible blindness caused by the slow death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) was reported to be aberrantly expressed in diverse diseases, including glaucoma. However, the mechanism of MALAT1 in glaucoma was still undefined.

MiR-218-5p Suppresses the Killing Effect of Natural Killer Cell to Lung Adenocarcinoma by Targeting SHMT1.

Purpose: Lung adenocarcinoma (LA) is one of the major types of lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in regulating responses of natural killer (NK) cells to cancer malignancy. However, the mechanism of miR-218-5p involved in the killing effect of NK cells to LA cells remains poorly understood.
