Background: The prevalence of resistance to aminoglycosides among P. aeruginosa isolates has increased all around the world. The resistance is caused through different mechanisms. One of these mechanisms is the use of enzymes such as phosphoryltransferases, acetyltransferases, and nucleotidyltransferases.

tRNA‐derived fragments (tRFs), non‐coding RNAs that regulate protein expression after transcription, have recently been identified as potential biomarkers. We identified differentially expressed tRFs in gastric cancer (GC) and the biological properties of tRFs in predicting the malignancy status of GCs as possible biomarkers. Until 15 February 2022, two independent reviewers did a thorough search in electronic databases of Scopus, EMBASE and PubMed. The QUADAS scale was used for quality assessment of the included studies. Ten articles investigating the clinical significance of tRFs, including 928 patients, were analysed. In 10 GC studies, seven tRFs were considerably upregulated and five tRFs were significantly downregulated when compared to controls. Risk of bias was rated low for index test, and flow as well as timing domains in relation to the review question. The applicability of the index test, flow and timing and patient selection for 10 studies was deemed low. In this study, we review the advances in the study of tRFs in GC and describe their functions in gene expression regulation, such as suppression of translation, cell differentiation, proliferation and the related signal transduction pathways associated with them. Our findings may offer researchers new ideas for cancer treatment as well as potential biomarkers for further research in GC.
