Circulating serum amyloid A levels but not SAA1 variants predict long-term outcomes of angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease by Kuan-Hung Yeh, Lung-An Hsu, Jyh-Ming Jimmy Juang, Fu-Tien Chiang, Ming-Sheng Teng, I-Shiang Tzeng, Semon Wu, Jeng-Feng Lin, Yu-Lin Ko

“…SAA levels were positively associated with leukocyte counts and multiple inflammatory marker levels in CAD patients and with body mass index, hemoglobin, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and alanine aminotransferase levels in TWB participants. By stepwise linear regression analysis, SAA1 gene variants contributed to 27.53% and 8.07% of the variation of the SAA levels in TWB and CAD populations, respectively, revealing a stronger influence of these two variants in TWB participants compared to CAD patients. …”

Relationship between immunohistochemical markers and clinical pathological variables in clear cell renal cell carcinoma by Pengshuai Liu, Pengshuai Liu, Junli Wei, Shubo Chen

“…ObjectiveTo explore the factors associated with the immunohistochemical results in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).MethodsThis retrospective, single-center observational study included patients with pathologically confirmed ccRCC who underwent nephrectomy at Xingtai People’s Hospital between January 2023 and October 2024. Logistic and linear regression was used to evaluate predictors of ccRCC features, with adjustments for demographic and clinical factors.ResultAmong the 50 patients (median age, 66 years; 64% male), high Vimentin expression was significantly associated with vascular invasion (adjusted OR, 2.90; 95% CI, 1.05–7.62; P = 0.031), lymph node metastasis (OR, 2.62; 95% CI, 1.03–8.12; P = 0.042), distant metastasis (OR, 3.10; 95% CI, 1.01–12.54; P = 0.048), and larger tumor size (P = 0.004). …”

The current state of knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and training needs regarding palliative care among ICU nurses in China: a cross-sectional study by Wei-wei Cai, Fei Wang, Chang-chun Song

“…Results Among the 693 ICU nurses surveyed, the scores for knowledge (73.67), attitude (77.1), behavior (75.84), and training needs (78.16) regarding palliative care were all below the middle level. Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that gender, professional rank, prior attendance at death education or palliative care training, engagement with literature on death, experience caring for patients in advanced stages, and the number of terminally ill patients cared for in the past year significantly influence nurses’ knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and training needs in palliative care (P < 0.05). …”
