BACKGROUND: Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and lung cancer (LC) have similar clinical symptoms and atypical imaging findings which are easily misdiagnosed. There is an urgent need for a noninvasive, rapid and accurate biomarker for distinguishing LC from TB.
METHODS:
Platelet storage lesion (PSL) is a critical factor limiting the efficacy of platelet transfusion. Although hypothermic (4°C) storage is considered beneficial for maintaining platelet function, the underlying mechanisms of systemic metabolic reprogramming remain incompletely understood. This study...
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is frequently the outcome of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a common possibly premalignant disease. In our study, a cohort of 50 patients with OSCC and OSMF, along with 50 healthy controls, was analyzed to identify significant metabolic differences between the...
Background: Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) poses a significant challenge for patients with colorectal tumor, often resulting in treatment interruption or discontinuation and subsequent treatment failure. Herein, a longitudinal untargeted metabolomic study to reveal the metabolom...
