For the low CDK1 expression group and high CDK1 expression group, the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 83.0% vs 63.5% (P = 0.004), and the 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was 47.5% vs 27.5% (P = 0.049) respectively. When compared low MAD2L1 expression group with high MAD2L1 expression group, the 5-year OS rate was 80.0% vs 43.2% (P = 0.001), and the 5-year EFS rate was 45.1% vs 21.8% (P = 0.038), respectively. If patients were divided into three groups low CDK1 and low MAD2L1 expression group, high CDK1 or high MAD2L1 expression group, and high CDK1 and high MAD2L1 expression group, the 5-year OS rate was 87.1%, 58.6%, 39.6% (P = 0.001), while the 5-year EFS rate of RMS patients was 54.2%, 23.2%, 21.7% (P = 0.028), respectively.
This study has identified that CDK1 and MAD2L1 were adverse prognostic factors of RMS.

Globally, sixty-two percent of cerebrovascular disease and forty-nine percent of ischemic heart disease are attributable to increased blood pressure. Half of the patients with stroke and heart disease were due to hypertension.
This study aimed to identify prevalence of hypertension and its associated factors in Gimbi town, Ethiopia.
We conducted a community-based cross-sectional study from May to June 2017 on 471 participants in Gimbi town, western Ethiopia. A systematic sampling method was used to recruit study participants. Data collectors used structured questionnaires to gather data through face to face interview. The standardized procedure followed to measure blood pressure and anthropometric measurements by trained extension health workers. We entered data into Epi-data and exported to SPSS version 20.00 for analysis. Variables having a P-value less than or equal to 0.05 were declared as statistically significant in multivariable analysis.
Four hundred seventy-one participants were included withograms at the community level.
Femoral fracture is the most painful bone injury and performing spinal anesthesia is extremely challenging due to very poor positioning unless we have a very good mode of analgesia. Intravenous strong opioids are commonly used but to date nerve blocks are also being utilized. The reliability and effectiveness of the aforementioned methods are not conclusive to practice worldwide. The objective of the study was to compare the analgesic effect of intravenous fentanyl, femoral nerve block (FNB) and fascia iliaca block (FICB) during positioning patients with femoral fracture for spinal anesthesia.
A randomized controlled trial study was conducted on 72 elective adult patients with femoral fracture aged 18-65 years and ASA I and II those were allocated randomly into three groups. The intravenous fentanyl (IVFE) group received 1µg/kg IV fentanyl, FNB group received nerve stimulator guided FNB with 30 mL of 1% lidocaine with adrenaline and FICB group received FICB with 30 mL of 1% lidocaine with adrenaline.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) A2M-AS1 has been indicated to be augmented in breast cancer (BC), with its specific function undetermined. Therefore, this study is designed to investigate the mechanism of lncRNA A2M-AS1 in BC.
The expression of A2M-AS1, microRNA (miR)-146b, and MUC19 in BC tissues and cells was measured. Then, the interaction among A2M-AS1, miR-146b, and MUC19 was detected. After A2M-AS1, miR-146b, and MUC19 expression werealtered in BC cells, cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis were detected, and the protein levels of Hippo-related proteins (YAP and p-YAP) were evaluated. Tumor growth assay was also performed to validate the effects of A2M-AS1 and miR-146b in vivo.
A2M-AS1 and MUC19 were highly expressed in BC, while miR-146b was poorly expressed. A2M-AS1 acts as a molecular sponge for miR-146b, which targeted and negatively modulated MUC19. A2M-AS1 accelerated BC cell proliferation, invasion, and colony formation and suppressed apoptosis via the miR-146b/MUC19/Hippo axis, which was confirmed in vivo.
Taken above together, an oncogenic role for A2M-AS1 in BC was elicited by acting as a miR-146b sponge to promote MUC19 expression. The findings will present some cues for a further approach to BC.

One of the most worrying complications of primary percutaneous coronary interventions is contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) that is associated with increased mortality and morbidity in myocardial infarction. In this study, we questioned whether soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2), which has thought to play a role in inflammatory processes, cardiac remodeling, and fibrosis could give an idea about the development of CIN in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients.
This study is a cross-sectional observational study and includes 357 consecutive STEMI patients. Docetaxel Demographic features, medical history, laboratory parameters, and procedural characteristics were compared according to CIN's development. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was selected to detect independent risk factors of CIN.
In the study, 81 patients (22.7%) who developed CIN were identified. The concentration of sST2 in CIN (+) group was higher than that of CIN (-) group (40.6±21.0 ng/mL vs 31.5±13.0 ng/L, p<0.001). Independent predictors of CIN development were diabetes mellitus (OR, 2.059; 95% CI, 1.093-3.879; p=0.025), eGFR (OR, 0.983; 95% CI, 0.972-0.995; p=0.006), lower systolic blood pressure (OR, 0.976; 95% CI, 0.960-0.993; p=0.006), total procedure time (OR, 1.030; 95% CI, 1.011-1.049; p=0.002), and sST2 (OR, 1.101; 95% CI; 1.046-1.160; p<0.001). Besides, the risk of developing CIN in the high sST2 group is 3.06 times higher than the low group sST2 group regardless of other risk factors.
sST2 levels on admission in STEMI patients are useful in predicting CIN development.
