Comprehensive analysis of clinicopathological profiles in adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung
CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, we describe an overview of ASC in the Chinese population, and upon stratifying into predominant pathological subgroups, we observed a higher frequency of driver gene mutations in AC-predominant ASC. We found that the AC component in ASC has a higher propensity for lymph node metastasis. These findings may suggest the predominant role of the AC component within the context of ASC.PMID:38322563 | PMC:PMC10839401 (Source: American Journal of Translational Research)

Genotype analysis of 55,281 cases of thalassemia in northern Guangxi
CONCLUSION: The population in northern Guangxi exhibited rich ethnic diversity, with high allelic carrying rates among the Zhuang, Yao and Dong ethnic groups. Thalassemia gene mutations are diverse, encompassing a variety of gene types, with α thalassemia predominating, notably the --SEA/αα gene type. The prevalence of intermedia or severe types of thalassemia is not low, but there are still some carriers of thalassemia in people who are initially tested negative.PMID:38322564 | PMC:PMC10839378 (Source: American Journal of Translational Research)

Relationship between anion gap and in-hospital mortality in intensive care patients with liver failure: a retrospective propensity score matching analysis
CONCLUSIONS: AG is associated with in-hospital mortality in intensive care patients with liver failure and demonstrates a moderate predictive value, which is comparable to the predictive power of the MELD score. AG may serve as an indirect marker of in-hospital mortality of patients with liver failure by reflecting the degree of metabolic acidosis.PMID:38322565 | PMC:PMC10839379 (Source: American Journal of Translational Research)
