Identification of GPD1L as a Potential Prognosis Biomarker and Associated with Immune Infiltrates in Lung Adenocarcinoma by Zhengyang Fan, Song Wu, Hongyang Sang, Qianping Li, Shaofei Cheng, Hongling Zhu

“…In this study, following an examination of the TGCA datasets, we found that GPD1L displayed a dysregulated state in a wide variety of cancers; this led us to believe that GPD1L is an essential regulator in the progression of malignancies. In addition, we found that the expression of GPD1L was much lower in LUAD tissues when compared with nontumor specimens. …”

Predictive Ability of Visit-to-Visit Variability of HbA1c Measurements for the Development of Diabetic Kidney Disease: A Retrospective Longitudinal Observational Study by Yunyi Yan, Nozomi Kondo, Kentaro Oniki, Hiroshi Watanabe, Tadashi Imafuku, Yuki Sakamoto, Takuro Shigaki, Akari Maruyama, Hitomi Nakazawa, Tetsuya Kaneko, Ayami Morita, Akira Yoshida, Hitoshi Maeda, Toru Maruyama, Hideaki Jinnouchi, Junji Saruwatari

“…Visit-to-visit variability of HbA1c was calculated as the internal standard deviation of HbA1c (HbA1c-SD), the coefficient of variation of HbA1c (HbA1c-CV), the HbA1c change score (HbA1c-HVS), and the area under the HbA1c curve (HbA1c-AUC) with 3-year serial HbA1c measurement data, and the associations between these indices and the development/progression of DKD were examined. Results. Cox proportional hazards models showed that the HbA1c-SD and HbA1c-AUC were associated with the incidence of microalbuminuria, independently of the HbA1c level. …”

MicroRNA-150-3p enhances the antitumour effects of CGP57380 and is associated with a favourable prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer by Hongmei Zheng, Songqing Fan, Jiadi Luo, Qiuyuan Wen, Hongjing Zang

“…Abstract MicroRNA (miRNA) dysregulation has been identified in several carcinomas, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and is known to play a role in the development and progression of this disease. We initially conducted a miRNA microarray analysis, which revealed that the MNK inhibitor CGP57380 increased the expression of miR-150-3p. …”

Efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant bevacizumab plus chemotherapy in locally advanced gastric cancer patients: a retrospective, comparative study by Bin Yin, Wei Luo

“…Results Objective response rate (52.2% vs. 35.4%), disease control rate (91.3% vs. 81.3%), surgical resection rate (95.7% vs. 85.4%), R0 resection rate (87.0% vs. 75.0%), and the proportion of patients with tumor regression grade 0–1 (31.8% vs. 17.1%) tended to increase in bevacizumab plus chemo group versus chemo group, although there was no statistical significance. The 48-month progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 58.3% and 33.4% in bevacizumab plus chemo group and chemo group. …”
