    Abstract: Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death discovered in recent years. It is a regulatory cell death induced by iron dependent lipid peroxide injury. Ferroptosis plays a critical role in the development of glioma, affecting tumor proliferation, angiogenesis, tumor cell necrosis, and the formation of an immune-resistant tumor microenvironmen...

    Abstract: In general, we use the classical Cox proportional hazards model to derive factors that affect the prediction of patients diagnosed with thymic carcinoma (TC); however, when competing risks exist, the results can be biased. This study aimed to build a competing risk model for patients with TC to explore a more accurate method for assessing the relev... Show More

    Abstract: Background. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is sexually transmitted and responsible for anogenital warts and malignancies but its early diagnosis is hampered by the people’s lack of knowledge about the disease and prevention methods, especially in resource-limited countries. Objective. The study was designed to determine knowledge; attitudes a... Show More

    Abstract: Glioma is the most common fatal primary malignant brain tumor in the central nervous system (CNS). Currently, the main standard treatment is the combination of tumor resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies glioma into four grades. Glioblastoma (GBM, WHO Grade 4) is the most aggressive type of glioma,... Show More
