UnknownFruquintinib with gefitinib as first-line therapy in patients carrying EGFR mutations with advanced non-small cell lung cancer: a single-arm, phase II study.

Background

Fruquintinib is an oral vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitor. Previous gefitinib studies with anti-angiogenics show promising efficacy. This phase II trial assessed efficacy and safety of fruquintinib in combination with gefitinib, in patients with advanced non-sm...

GenomicsGenome-Wide Association Studies in Upper Gastrointestinal Cancers (Asian)

This project aims to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in two anatomically different upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancer sites in two populations with distinctly different disease rates and genetic profiles. One population has very high rates for both esophageal squamous cel...

GenomicsGenome wide association study of leprosy in Chinese population

Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae). Due to M. leprae's narrow host range and an inability to be cultured in vitro, the biological investigation of this disease has been difficult. Host genetic factors have been ...

UnknownComparative genome anatomy reveals evolutionary insights into a unique amphitriploid fish.
Triploids are rare in nature because of difficulties in meiotic and gametogenic processes, especially in vertebrates. The Carassius complex of cyprinid teleosts contains sexual tetraploid crucian carp/goldfish (C. auratus) and unisexual hexaploid gibel carp/Prussian carp (C. gibelio) lineages, provi...

UnknownGenotypic variants at 2q33 and risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in China: a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies.
Genome-wide association studies have identified susceptibility loci for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We conducted a meta-analysis of all single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that showed nominally significant P-values in two previously published genome-wide scans that included a total...

UnknownDe novo mutations across 1,465 diverse genomes reveal mutational insights and reductions in the Amish founder population.
De novo mutations (DNMs), or mutations that appear in an individual despite not being seen in their parents, are an important source of genetic variation whose impact is relevant to studies of human evolution, genetics, and disease. Utilizing high-coverage whole-genome sequencing data as part of the...

UnknownPrevalence, associated factors and outcomes of pressure injuries in adult intensive care unit patients: the DecubICUs study.

Purpose

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in ad...
