A retrospective observational study to assess the cirrhosis risk in alcoholic patients

Abstract

Cirrhosis is a late-stage liver disease in which/ advanced stage of scaring and conditions, such as hepatitis and chronic alcoholism. This disease is a condition in which your liver is scarred and permanently damaged. Scar tissue replaces healthy liver tissue and prevents your liver from working normally. Irreversible change in the normal liver tissue results in the degeneration of functioning liver cells and their replacement with fibrous connective tissue. In the present study, the risk assessment in alcoholic patients is assessed using laboratory data. Other biochemical parameters and severity are assessed using the child-pugh score. In the present study, 98 patients were identified of which 8 patients were excluded due to various reasons, and 90 patients' data were analyzed. In order to assess the risk of cirrhosis in alcoholic patients, we used the cpugh score for assessing the severity and survival rate of subjects. A total of 90 patients were enrolled in this observational study. The study confirmed that more than 60 % of the subjects possess a severe risk of cirrhosis and risk factors such as age, gender, ALD, high BMI, social history family history, and encephalopathy.

Identification of novel immune infiltration-related biomarkers of sepsis based on bioinformatics analysis

“…Lymphocyte populations are exceptionally sensitive to apoptosis, and the amount of B cells and T cells are distinctly reduced after sepsis onset (19,20). It would cause increased mortality if the cell numbers of leukocytosis or lymphopenia can not be normalized during the stages (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28). This study suggested that the stress induced by sepsis mainly influences the macrophage function related to T cell activation and differentiation, and lymphocyte differentiation.…”

Resveratrol protects against high glucose-induced steroidogenesis and apoptosis in murine granulosa cells

“…Given the role of Res as an inhibitor of oxidative stress, inflammation, and hyperhomocysteinemia (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30), it may also serve to counteract the negative effects of hyperglycemia as observed in the present study, thereby reversing the impaired GC steroidogenesis observed following high-glucose treatment. However, further research will be essential to clarify the molecular mechanisms governing these Res-mediated improvements in GC function in order to better explore the potential clinical utility of this natural compound.…”

LncRNA TEX41 promotes the proliferation and migration of squamous cell carcinoma cells by upregulating Atg5 via sponging miR-153-3p

“…In addition, it has been reported that lncRNAs could affect tumors by regulating autophagy. Qiong Wu et al (35) proposed that autophagy promoted GC cell survival, migration, invasion and EMT, and their study revealed that Ln-cRNA SnHG1 1 activated the Wnt/ β catenin pathway and aggravated GC progression via oncogenic autophagy (35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42). Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a prominent role in SCC progression, and it is closely related to the proliferation and migration of cancer cells.…”
