Adaptability is an important psychological trait for college students. However, the components of adaptability contained significant inconsistencies in previous studies. On the one hand, there were discrepancies among the adaptability dimensions. On the other hand, significant inconsistencies were found in the connections among different aspects of...

Mobile phone use brings convenience to people's social communication and leisurely experience. While excessive mobile phone use also leads to problematic mobile phone use such as mobile phone addiction and nomophobia which has serious harm. For college students who have just entered college, the adaptability to college life and the level of adult a...
The prognostic significance of c-MET in gastric cancer (GC) remains uncertain. In the present study, we examined the amplification, expression, and the prognostic value of c-MET, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PDL1), together with the correlations among them in a large cohort of Chinese sample...
Objective:
We aimed to analyze the phosphatases of regenerating liver 1 (PTP4A1) expression and its relationship with tumor invasion, metastasis, and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods:
The retrospective study enrolled 150 cases who underwent radical resection for primary NSCLC during the period from January 2006 to January...
Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type S is a tumor suppressor gene, located at chromosome 19p13.3, frequently inactivated through deletions or epigenetic mechanisms in many types of cancers. In this study, we investigate protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor S (PTPRS) expression level, clinicopathological and prognostic significance in 205 cas...
Recurrent chromosomal aberrations have led to the discovery of oncogenes or tumour suppressors involved in carcinogenesis. Here we characterized an oncogenic long intergenic non-coding RNA in the frequent DNA-gain regions in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), LINC01138 (long intergenic non-coding RNA located on 1q21.2). The LINC01138 locus is frequent...

The original article [1] contains two errors in Table 2.
Esophageal cancer is one of the most common types of cancer with poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms of esophageal cancer progression remain unknown. In the present study, the aim was to investigate the clinical significance and biological function of protease asparaginyl endopeptidase (AEP) in esophageal cancer. The expression of AEP in esoph...
Background
Ultrathin melanoma was previously demonstrated to have higher risk for melanoma-specific mortality using SEER database. However, these guideline-changing conclusions has been recently challenged by miscoding of thickness. This present study was performed to assess the prognosis of thin and ultrathin melanoma using only surgically-treated...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a worldwide health threat with increasing incidence and high mortality rate. Most HCCpatients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, and are unable to undergo potential curative surgery. Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and transcatheter arterial chemotherapy infusion (TACI) are two main palliative trea...
Background:
Reliable biomarkers of apatinib response in gastric cancer (GC) are lacking. We investigated the association between early presence of common adverse events (AEs) and clinical outcomes in metastatic GC patients.
Patients and methods:
We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data on 269 apatinib-treated GC patients in two clini...
Our aim was to identify plasma microRNA (miRNA)-based signatures to predict 3-year postoperative recurrence risk for patients with stage II and III gastric cancer (GC) so as to provide insights for individualized adjuvant therapy. Plasma miRNA expression was investigated in three phases, involving 407 patients recruited from three centers. ABI miRN...

Background: Traditionally, larger tumor size and lymph node (LN) involvement have been considered independent predictors of mortality in melanoma. We aimed to characterize the interaction between tumor size and LN involvement in melanoma specific mortality. In particular, we evaluated whether very small tumor size represented a particularly...

Background: Reliable biomarkers of apatinib response in gastric cancer (GC) are lacking. We investigated the association between early presence of common adverse events (AEs) and clinical outcomes in metastatic GC patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data on 269 apatinib-treated GC patients in two clinical trials....
Esophageal cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, and it has a poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms of esophageal cancer progression remain largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical significance and biological function of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) in esophageal cancer. Expre...
Hypoxia and dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified as crucial factors in carcinogenesis. However, the potential mechanisms of HIF-1α and miR-421 in gastric cancer have not been well elucidated. In this study, we found that miR-421 was up-regulated by HIF-1α. Overexpression of miR-421 promoted metastasis, inhibited apoptosis, and i...
Bmi-1 is aberrantly activated in various cancers and plays a vital role in maintaining the self-renewal of stem cells. Our previous research revealed that Bmi-1 was overexpressed in gastric cancer (GC) and it's overexpression was an independent negative prognostic factor, suggesting it can be a therapeutic target. The main purpose of this investiga...
Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells represent a realistic approach in cancer immunotherapy with confirmed survival benefits in the context of metastatic solid tumors. However, therapeutic effects are limited to a fraction of patients. In this study, immune-resistance elements and ideal combination therapies were explored. Initially, phenotypic anal...
Despite the promising results from initial studies, there are significant limitations in the application of MET-targeted therapy in gastric cancer. Intrinsic resistance is one of the major obstacles. The aim of this study is to identify the responsible receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that determine the unresponsiveness of MET inhibitor in MET-posi...
Previous case-control studies on the association of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism with gastric cancer were controversial. A meta-analysis was conducted to further evaluate the association between polymorphism in the ACE gene I/D and gastric cancer. We searched MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Web of Sci...
Growing evidence indicates that microRNA (miRNA) plays a vital role in progression and metastasis of gastric cancer (GC). However, the underlying mechanism of miRNA-mediated metastasis has not been fully understood. Recently, miRNA-940 (miR-940) was found to be overexpressed in GC, which correlated with malignant progression and poor survival. Mech...
Liver metastasis is common in patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC), and is also correlated with poor outcome. In this study we screened the different expression profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) on the development of liver metastasis in CRC patients. miR-99b-5p was found to be more than 6-fold higher in primary tumors than in matched liver...
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2)-targeted therapy has attracted considerable attention as novel anticancer agents in gastric cancer (GC). However, intrinsic or acquired drug resistance has emerged as a major challenge to their clinical use. In this study, we demonstrated that several receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), including EGFR, HER3 a...
The association between MUC1 polymorphism rs4072037 and the risk of gastric cancer has been described in several studies. However, these studies yielded inconsistent results, especially in different pathological type of gastric cancer. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between MUC1 gene polymorphism and gastric...
Background
Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene amplification has been reported in different types of cancer. We performed an up-to-date meta-analysis to further characterize the prognostic value of FGFR gene amplification in patients with cancer.
Methods
A search of several databases, including MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Web of Science, a...
Background:
The pathogenesis of gastric cancer (GC) involves environmental and genetic factors. Recently, two genome-wide association studies found that phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) polymorphisms might be related to GC risk, and several studies further validated this finding. However, these studies yielded inconsistent results.
Methods:
A c...
