Background Vitamin D insufficiency is a common public health problem nationwide. Circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]D), the most commonly used index of vitamin status, converted to active hormone 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin (1,25[OH]2D), which, operating through receptor (VDR), inhibits in vitro cell proliferation, induces differentiation and apoptosis, may protect against prostate cancer. Despite intriguing results from laboratory studies, previous epidemiological studies showed inconsistent...
Abstract Oxidative stress may enhance prostatic carcinogenesis. A polymorphism [valine (V) → alanine (A)] of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), the primary antioxidant enzyme in mitochondria, has been recently associated with prostate cancer. We examined relationship between cancer and MnSOD its interactions baseline plasma levels (selenium, lycopene, α-tocopherol) β-carotene treatment among 567 cases 764 controls nested prospective Physicians' Health Study. found little overall...
Background: Epidemiologic studies suggest that low selenium levels are associated with an increased incidence of prostate cancer, although results conflicting. We examined the association between pre-diagnostic plasma and risk cancer in men enrolled Physicians' Health Study. Methods: Using samples obtained 1982 from healthy study, we conducted a nested case–control study among 586 diagnosed during 13 years follow-up 577 control subjects. Odds ratios (ORs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for...
Abstract Background: Animal models suggest that n-3 fatty acids inhibit prostate cancer proliferation, whereas n-6 promote it, but epidemiologic studies do not uniformly support these findings. Methods: A nested case-control study was conducted among 14,916 apparently healthy men who provided blood samples in 1982. Blood acid levels were determined for 476 diagnosed with during a 13-year follow-up and their matched controls. Conditional logistic regression used to estimate the relative risks...
Abstract Background: Adipocytokines may mediate the association between adiposity and lethal prostate cancer outcomes. Methods: In Physicians’ Health Study, we prospectively examined of prediagnostic plasma concentrations adiponectin leptin with risk developing incident (654 cases diagnosed 1982–2000 644 age-matched controls) and, among cases, dying from by 2007. Results: Adiponectin were not associated overall cancer. However, men higher had lower high-grade or (metastatic fatal disease)....
Purpose In the phase III KEYNOTE-045 study ( ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02256436), pembrolizumab significantly prolonged overall survival compared with investigator's choice of chemotherapy in patients previously treated advanced urothelial cancer. Here, we report results health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) analyses from trial. Patients and Methods were randomly assigned 1:1 to 200 mg or docetaxel 75 mg/m2, paclitaxel 175 vinflunine 320 mg/m2 administered intravenously every 3...
Abstract Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent accumulation lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels. YAP has been reported play pivotal role in controlling ferroptotic death, and the expression enhanced stabilized O-GlcNAcylation. However, whether O-GlcNAcylation can increase sensitivity hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells ferroptosis remains unknown. In present study, we found that increased HCC via YAP. Moreover, iron concentration through...
Tranexamic acid is recommended for reducing blood loss and transfusion in cardiac surgery.

The study enrolled 3079 at 4 hospitals...
Abstract The synergistic effect of neoadjuvant immunotherapy and chemoradiotherapy in gastric adenocarcinoma is unclear. This phase II trial (NCT03631615) investigated this combination locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction. Thirty-six patients received capecitabine 850 mg/m 2 twice daily simultaneous radiotherapy for 5 weeks, sandwiched by a 21-day cycle oxaliplatin 130 (day 1) plus 1000 (days 1–14), respectively, followed surgery. Camrelizumab 200 mg was given cycles since...
Abstract Distinguishing aggressive prostate cancer from indolent disease represents an important clinical challenge, as current therapy requires over treating men with to prevent the progression of a few cases. Expression metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) has previously been found be associated metastatic state in various cancers. Analyzing DNA microarray data, we MTA1 selectively overexpressed compared clinically localized and benign tissue. These results were validated by...
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are elevated in prostate cancer patients, but the role of prediagnostic levels these inflammatory mediators on outcomes is unclear. We undertook a large, prospective case-control study to evaluate relation between IL-6 CRP incidence mortality. also investigated (-174 G/C) polymorphism circulating CRP, as well risk used unconditional logistic regression that adjusted for matching factors analyze risk. For analyses mortality, we conducted...
Abstract The role of selenium in prostate cancer (PCa) risk remains controversial, but many epidemiologic studies suggest an inverse association with more aggressive disease. A recently discovered selenoprotein, SEP15, which is highly expressed the prostate, may play a either independently or by modifying effects selenium. We genotyped four common single-nucleotide polymorphisms capturing variation (frequency &gt;5%; R2 &gt; 0.8) within as well rs5859 3′ untranslated region,...
