In the present study, the diagnostic value of high risk-human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) combined with colposcopy for the detection of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions was evaluated. A total of 397 patients with confirmed cervical disease were enrolled between August 2020 and December 2021. According to the pathological diagnosis, the patients were divided into cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade I (CIN I; n=153 cases), CIN II (n=101 cases), CIN III (n=86 cases) and cervical cancer (n=57 cases) groups.

Objective: Baicalin (BC) is a flavonoid reported to have various pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, immune regulation, and anti-diabetic. This study examines the probable mechanism for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) brought on by streptozotocin (STZ) and the impact of BC on fetal development via AGEs (advanced serum glycation end products) and RAGE (the role of advanced glycation end products).

Material And Method: STZ has been used in the current experimental study to induce diabetes mellitus in pregnant animals (gestational diabetes mellitus).

Background: Targeting CD20+ melanoma cancer stem cells (CSCs) subset is essential for treating melanoma. Anti-CD20 aptamer-modified exosomes (ACEXO) loaded with Adriamycin could be a therapeutic strategy for targeting CSCs.

Materials And Methods: Exosomes loaded with Adriamycin were modified with anti-CD20 aptamer and characterized by size and molecular markers using transmission electron microscope and dynamic light scattering.

With the advancement and development of medical equipment, CT images have become a common lung examination tool. This article mainly studies the application of CT imaging examination based on virtual reality analysis in the clinical diagnosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Before extracting suspected lymph nodes from a CT image of the stomach, the CT image sequence is preprocessed first, which can reduce the cumbersomeness of subsequent extraction of suspected lymph nodes and speed up the subsequent processing.

BACKGROUND The aim of the present work was to evaluate FOXA2 expression in ovarian cancer and to use integrated bioinformatics analysis to correlate it with patient prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS FOXA2 expression was evaluated in multiple cancers in The Cancer Genome Atlas database. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network relevant to FOXA2 was constructed using the Search Tool for Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRIN).

Department of Oncology, Qingdao Municipal Hospital, School of Medicine, Qingdao University, Qingdao, Shandong 266071, P.R. China.

The evolution of adriamycin (ADR) resistance in the treatment of breast cancer often leads to a poor prognosis in patients. Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 37 (USP37) has been recently identified as a modulator in regulating the stemness of breast cancer cells, but its underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated whether USP37 knockdown could hamper the chemical resistance of MCF-7 and MCF-7/ADR cells to adriamycin and elucidated the potential mechanism.

Impact of thyroid hormones on asthma in older adults.

J Int Med Res

September 2019

Respiratory Medicine Department, Qingdao Municipal Hospital Group, Qingdao, Shandong, China.

Objective: Thyroid hormones affect airway contraction, but the specific effects of thyroid hormones on airways are controversial.

Methods: We divided 78 advanced-age men with asthma into 3 groups: type I respiratory failure (RF1), type II respiratory failure (RF2), and no respiratory failure (NRF). Pulmonary function was measured after asthma stabilization.
