Much evidence indicates that microRNAs could play potential roles as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present meta-analysis aimed to systematically evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of circulating microRNAs for HCC. Eligible studies were identified through multiple search strategies and assessed for relevance and quality. Results from different studies were pooled using random-effects models. The quality of each study was scored with the revised quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies tool. The summary receiver operator characteristic (SROC) curve and other measures were used to assess the overall performance of microRNA-based assays. Evidence of heterogeneity was evaluated using the I 2 test. Meta-regressions were conducted to analyze potential sources of heterogeneity. Deeks’ test was used to test for potential publication bias. Thirty studies from 13 publications, including 1,314 patients with HCC and 1,407 controls, comprised healthy individuals and patients with hepatitis B/C or cirrhosis, were included in this meta-analysis. For diagnostic meta-analysis, the overall pooled results were as follows: sensitivity was 0.80 (95 % CI 0.74–0.84), specificity was 0.81 (95 % CI 0.74–0.87), positive likelihood ratio was 4.2 (95 % CI 3.0–6.0), negative likelihood ratio was 0.25 (95 % CI 0.19–0.38) and diagnostic odds ratio was 17 (95 % CI 10–29). The area under the SROC curve was 0.86 (95 % CI 0.84–0.90). Subgroup analyses suggested that multiple microRNAs had much better accuracy than single microRNA. Our findings suggest that circulating microRNAs show significant potential as diagnostic markers of HCC, particularly when using multiple microRNAs. However the results of this meta-analysis justify larger, more rigorous studies to confirm our conclusions. 相似文献

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), a common type of lung cancer, has become a popularly aggressive cancer. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in the pathogenesis of human cancers, while the function of double homeobox A pseudogene 8 (DUXAP8) in LUAD remains to be fully inquired. Therefore, our study was conducted to elucidate the DUXAP8 expression in LUAD and its mechanism on the biological features of LUAD cells. Loss-of-function experiments were performed to assess the function of DUXAP8 proliferation and apoptosis of H1975 and A549 cells. Functionally, silencing DUXAP8 inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of LUAD cells. Mechanistically, further correlation assay indicated a negative association between miR-26b-5p and DUXAP8 expression. Subsequently, we testified that DUXAP8 exerted its role in the progression and development of LUAD through targeting miR-26b-5p. In summary, our results elucidated that that DUXAP8 promoted tumor progression in LUAD by targeting miR-26b-5p, which provide a novel therapeutic target for diagnosis and therapy of LUAD. 相似文献

Background
Recently, more and more studies investigated the value of microRNA (miRNA) as a diagnostic or prognostic biomarker in various cancers. MiR-21 was found dysregulated in almost all types of cancers. While the prognostic role of miR-21 in many cancers has been studied, the results were not consistent.Methods
We performed a meta-analysis to investigate the correlation between miR-21 and survival of general cancers by calculating pooled hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).Results
The pooled results of 63 published studies showed that elevated miR-21 was a predictor for poor survival of general carcinomas, with pooled HR of 1.91 (95%CI: 1.66–2.19) for OS, 1.42 (95% CI: 1.16–1.74) for DFS and 2.2 (95% CI: 1.64–2.96) for RFS/CSS. MiR-21 was also a prognostic biomarker in the patients who received adjuvant therapy, with pooled HR of 2.4 (95%CI: 1.18–4.9) for OS.Conclusions
Our results showed that miR-21 could act as a significant biomarker in the prognosis of various cancers. Further studies are warranted before the application of the useful biomarker in the clinical. 相似文献4.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of early adverse events on overall survival (OS), progression‐free survival (PFS) and objective response within a pooled secondary analysis of participants treated with first‐line vemurafenib or vemurafenib plus cobimetinib in the clinical trials BRIM3 and coBRIM. The study included 583 participants who received vemurafenib monotherapy and 247 who received vemurafenib plus cobimetinib. Adverse events requiring vemurafenib/cobimetinib dose adjustment within the first 28 days of therapy were significantly associated with OS (hazard ratio (HR) [95% CI]: dose reduced/interrupted = 0.79 [0.65–0.96]; drug withdrawn = 1.18 [0.71–1.96]; p = 0.032), PFS (HR [95% CI]: dose reduced/interrupted = 0.82 [0.67–0.99]; drug withdrawn = 1.58 [0.97–2.58]; p = 0.017) and objective response (odds ratio (OR) [95% CI]: dose reduced/interrupted = 1.35 [0.99–1.85]; drug withdrawn = 0.17 [0.06–0.43]; p = <0.001). Arthralgia occurring within the first 28 days of vemurafenib or vemurafenib plus cobimetinib therapy was also significantly associated with favourable OS (p = 0.026), PFS (p = 0.042) and objective response (p = 0.047). 相似文献

Background
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be aberrantly expressed in patients with cancer. Many studies have shown that circulating miRNAs could play potential roles as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of cancers. The aim of this meta-analysis is to summarize the role of circulating miR-21 as a biomarker in patients with a variety of carcinomas.Material and methods
Eligible studies were identified and assessed for quality through multiple search strategies. For diagnostic meta-analysis, the sensitivity, specificity, and other measures of miR-21 in the diagnosis of cancer were pooled using bivariate random-effects approach models. For prognostic meta-analysis, pooled hazard ratios (HRs) of circulating miR-21 for survival were calculated.Results
A total of 36 studies dealing with various carcinomas were included for the systemic review. Among them, 23 studies were finally enrolled in the global meta-analysis (17 studies for diagnosis and 6 studies for prognosis). For diagnostic meta-analysis, the overall pooled results for sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio (LRP), negative likelihood ratios (LRN) and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) were 75.7% (95% CI: 67.1%–82.6%), 79.3% (95% CI: 74.2%–83.5%), 3.65 (95% CI: 2.83–4.70), 0.31 (95% CI: 0.22–0.43), and 11.88 (95% CI: 6.99–20.19), respectively. For prognostic meta-analysis, the pooled HR of higher miR-21 expression in circulation was 2.37 (95% CI: 1.83–3.06, P < 0.001), which could significantly predict poorer survival in general carcinomas. Importantly, subgroup analysis suggested that higher expression of miR-21 correlated with worse overall survival (OS) significantly in carcinomas of digestion system (HR, 5.77 [95% CI: 2.65–12.52]).Conclusions
Our findings suggest that circulating miR-21 may not suitable to be a diagnostic biomarker, but it has a prognostic value in patients with cancer. 相似文献7.
BackgroundBreast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer for women all over the world. Great interests have been paid to discover accurate and noninvasive methods for breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Although the diagnostic and prognostic value of microRNA-200 (miRNA- 200, miR-200) family has been revealed in many studies, the results were inconsistent. Thus, this meta-analysis aims to assess the overall value of miRNA-200 family in breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis.MethodRelevant studies were searched from the following databases: PubMed, PMC, EMBASE, and ScienceDirect using key words: ("miRNA-200 family" or "miR-141" or "miR-200a" or "miR-200b" or "miR-200c" or "miR-429") and (“HER2” or “Luminal A” or “Luminal B” or “TNBC”) and ("breast cancers" or "breast carcinoma" or "breast malignancy" or "breast tumor"). The sensitivity, specificity, AUC were then calculated to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of the miR-200 family. As for the prognostic value of the miR-200 family, the pooled hazard ratio (HR) was assessed. Heterogeneity among individual studies was also examined by subgroup analyses.ResultA total of 24 articles were included in the meta-analysis. The diagnostic value of miR-200s in BC was presented by the pooled sensitivity was 0.86 (95% CI: 0.83-0.88); the pooled specificity was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.72-0.89); the pooled AUC was 0.931 (95% CI: 0.919-0.942). Besides, expression of miR-200s in metastatic breast cancer has sensitivity, specificity and AUC of 0.70 (95%CI: 0.56-0.81), 0.72 (95%CI: 0.61-0.81), and 0.814 (95%CI: 0.741-0.903), respectively. The meta-analysis then revealed that high expression of miR-200 family corresponded to poor OS (HR: 1.63, 95% CI: 1.03-2.52), poor DFS (HR: 1.55, 95% CI: 0.95-2.56) in BC patients while downregulation of miRNA-200s corresponded to poor OS (HR= 0.84, 95%CI: 0.46-1.63) in TNBC patients and poor OS (HR=0.49; 95%CI: 0.27-0.88) in luminal BC patient.ConclusionThe MiR-200 family has high diagnostic accuracy and can be used as an important biomarker to prognosticate breast cancer. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that the expression of periostin (POSTN) is significantly correlated with prognosis in multiple solid cancers. However, the function of POSTN in tumorigenesis and its relationship with clinical outcomes have not been systematically summarized and analyzed. Thus, a meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic pertinence of POSTN in solid cancer. We conducted a systematic search in the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane library databases, and a total of 10 studies were used to assess the association of POSTN expression and patients’ overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). The hazard ratio (HR) or odds ratio (OR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were further calculated to estimate the association between POSTN and relevant clinical parameters of solid cancer patients. The pooled results indicated that POSTN overexpression was associated with poor OS (HR = 2.35, 95% CI = 1.88–2.93, p < .00001) and DFS (HR = 2.70, 95% CI = 2.00–3.65, p < .00001) in a cohort of 993 patients with cancer. Subsequent analyses showed that the positive expression ratio of POSTN was evidently higher in cancer tissues than in normal tissues (OR = 7.44, 95% CI = 3.66–13.95, p < .00001). In addition, subgroup analysis showed that POSTN was related to microvascular invasion (OR = 5.09, 95% CI = 3.07–8.44, p < .00001), tumor differentiation (OR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.41–2.91, p = .0001), and lymph node metastasis (OR = 3.05, 95% CI = 2.01–4.64, p < .00001). These data showed that POSTN could be a credible prognostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic target in human solid cancer. 相似文献

Background: Long non-coding RNA associated with poor prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (AWPPH) is dysregulated in a variety of human cancers. However, the prognostic value of AWPPH in various cancers remains unclear.Methods: Comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Wangfang databases, and eligible studies were obtained according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) were applied to assess the clinical value of AWPPH expression for overall survival (OS) and clinicopathological features.Results: A total of 19 articles including 1699 cancer patients were included in the study. The pooled results demonstrated that evaluated AWPPH expression was positively related to a poorer overall survival of patients with cancers (HR = 1.79, 95%CI: 1.44–2.14, P<0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed that tumor type and sample size affect the predictive value of AWPPH on OS, whereas cut-off value and HR estimation method have no impact on it. In addition, the pooled data also showed that AWPPH was positively linked to advanced TNM stage (OR = 2.50, 95%CI: 1.94–3.22, P<0.001), bigger tumor size (OR = 2.64, 95%CI: 1.47–4.73, P=0.001), macro-vascular invasion (OR = 2.08, 95%CI: 1.04–4.16, P=0.04) and lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.68, 95%CI: 1.82–3.96, P<0.001). Moreover, the results of the trim and fill analysis confirmed the reliability of our finding.Conclusions: Up-regulation of AWPPH was associated with advanced TNM stage, bigger tumor size, worse lymph node metastasis, macro-vascular invasion and shorter overall survival, suggesting that AWPPH may serve as a biomarker for prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics in human cancers among the Chinese population. 相似文献

Determining the expression level of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in tumor tissue is of great importance for personalized therapy in gastric cancer. Although several studies have investigated whether serum HER2 can serve as a surrogate for tissue HER2 status, results have been inconsistent. We therefore performed a meta-analysis of published clinical studies in an attempt to address this problem. PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and Science Direct were queried for eligible studies that could provide sufficient data to construct 2 × 2 contingency tables. The quality of the studies included in the meta-analysis was assessed in accordance with the revised Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) criteria. The pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) were calculated for the eligible studies. The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve was constructed and the area under the SROC (AUSROC) was used to evaluate overall diagnostic performance. Eight studies comprising a total of 1170 participants were included in our meta-analysis. The pooled sensitivity, specificity and DOR were 0.39 (95% CI: 0.21–0.61), 0.98 (95% CI: 0.87–1.00), and 27 (95% CI: 9–81), respectively. The AUSROC was 0.77 (95% CI: 0.73–0.80) and Deeks funnel plot suggested the absence of publication bias (p = 0.91). Meta-regression analysis indicated that threshold effect was the main source of heterogeneity. Assays for evaluating serum HER2 levels are highly specific and demonstrate moderate diagnostic performance for HER2 tissue status in gastric cancer. 相似文献

Background: Defects in methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1-like (MTHFD1L) expression have earlier been examined in only a few human cancers. Objectives: Multi-omics profiling of MTHFD1L as a shared biomarker in distinct subtypes of human cancers. Methods: In the current study, for the multi-omics analysis of MTHFD1L in 24 major subtypes of human cancers, a comprehensive in silico approach was adopted to mine different open access online databases including UALCAN, Kaplan–Meier (KM) plotter, LOGpc, GEPIA, Human Protein Atlas (HPA), Gene Expression across Normal and Tumor tissue (GENT2), MEXPRESS, cBioportal, STRING, DAVID, TIMER, and Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD). Results: We noticed that the expression of MTHFD1L was significantly higher in all the analyzed 24 subtypes of human cancers as compared with the normal controls. Moreover, MTHDF1L overexpression was also found to be significantly associated with the reduced overall survival (OS) duration of Bladder urothelial cancer (BLCA), Head and neck cancer (HNSC), Kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC). This implies that MTHFD1L plays a significant role in the development and progression of these cancers. We further noticed that MTHFD1L was also overexpressed in BLCA, HNSC, KIRP, LUAD, and UCEC patients of different clinicopathological features. Pathways enrichment analysis revealed the involvement of MTHFD1L-associated genes in five diverse pathways. We also explored few interesting correlations between MTHFD1L expression and its promoter methylation, genetic alterations, CNVs, and between CD8+ T immune cells level. Conclusion: In conclusion, our results elucidated that MTHFD1L can serve as a shared diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in BLCA, HNSC, KIRP, LUAD, and UCEC patients of different clinicopathological features. 相似文献

MethodsPubmed/Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library and Ovid were searched for all studies assessing SS and LS simultaneously in EV diagnosis. A total of 16 studies including 1892 patients were included in this meta-analysis, and the pooled statistical parameters were calculated using the bivariate mixed effects models.ResultsIn detection of any EV, for LS measurement, the summary sensitivity was 0.83 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.78–0.87), and the specificity was 0.66 (95% CI: 0.60–0.72). While for SS measurement, the pooled sensitivity and specificity was 0.88 (95% CI: 0.83–0.92) and 0.78 (95% CI: 0.73–0.83). The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve values of LS and SS were 0.81 (95% CI: 0.77–0.84) and 0.88 (95% CI: 0.85–0.91) respectively, and the results had statistical significance (P<0.01). The diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) of SS (25.73) was significantly higher than that of LS (9.54), with the relative DOR value was 2.48 (95%CI: 1.10–5.60), P<0.05.ConclusionsUnder current techniques, SS is significantly superior to LS for identifying the presence of EV in patients with CLD. SS measurement may help to select patients for endoscopic screening. 相似文献

BackgroundMesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy has the potential to enhance muscular regeneration. In previous publications, our group was able to show a dose-response relationship in female animals between the amount of transplanted cells and muscle force. The impact of sex on the regeneration of musculoskeletal injuries following MSC transplantation remains unclear.ObjectiveWe investigated histologic and biomechanical regeneration parameters in rats after autologous transplantation of MSCs. Our hypothesis was that female rats have greater muscle regeneration potential than male rats after autologous MSC transplantation.MethodsThirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats received an open crush trauma of the left soleus muscle. One week after trauma, 2.5 × 106 autologous MSCs, harvested from tibial biopsies, were transplanted locally (female, n = 9; male, n = 9). Control animals received saline solution (female, n = 9; male, n = 9). Histologic analysis and biomechanical evaluation by in vivo muscle force measurement were performed 3 weeks after transplantation.ResultsMSC therapy improved the force of the injured soleus in male rats significantly (twitch: treated, 0.76 [0.51–1.15]; twitch: untreated, 0.45 [0.32–0.73] [P = 0.01]; tetany: treated, 0.63 [0.4–1.21], tetany: untreated, 0.34 [0.16–0.48] [P = 0.04]). Force measurements in females also revealed significant improvements (twitch: treated, 0.71 [0.38–0.96]; twitch: untreated, 0.36 [0.18–0.63] [P = 0.005]; tetany: treated, 0.53 [0.21–0.68]; tetany: untreated, 0.27 [0.11–0.47] [P = 0.01]). The intersexual comparison of fast twitch and tetanic contraction forces revealed no significance (twitch, P = 0.55; tetany, P = 0.19). The histologic analysis showed no differences in the amount of fibrotic tissue (male, P = 0.9; female, P = 0.14) and the size of muscle area (male, P = 0.2; female, P = 0.56) following treatment. Male animals showed higher values for muscle area (P = 0.011) and less fibrosis (P = 0.028), independent of treatment.ConclusionThe outcome of skeletal muscle regeneration after injury can be improved in animals of both sexes with MSC transplantation. 相似文献

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have spurred considerable interest in numerous tumors. We aimed to investigate the clinical, prognostic, and diagnostic roles of circRNAs in human lung cancer. We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Scopus, CBM, and the Cochrane Library databases up to July 24, 2018. Eligible studies about the relationship between circRNAs expression and clinical, prognostic, and diagnostic outcomes in patients with lung cancer were in our study. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were to investigate clinical parameters, and hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs to estimate overall survival (OS). A total of 23 relevant studies were eligible, with 15 on clinicopathological features, 14 on prognosis, and six on diagnosis. For clinical features, high expression of oncogenic circRNAs was remarkably related to poor clinical parameters. Whereas, the results of tumor-suppressor circRNAs were the complete opposite. For the prognostic roles, oncogenic circRNAs had an unfavorable impact on overall survival (OS: HR = 3.24, 95% Cl: 2.70–3.77), and elevated level of tumor-suppressor circRNAs was correlated with longer survival (OS: HR = 0.57, 95% Cl: 0.43–0.70). For the diagnostic values, the pooled result showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.86, with 77% sensitivity and 81% specificity in distinguishing patients with lung cancer from healthy ones. The above results suggested that circRNAs have the potential to be novel indicators for prognostic and diagnostic evaluation of patients with lung cancer. 相似文献

MicroRNA-196a (miR-196a) was previously reported to be up-regulated in cancers, and it has the diagnostic and prognostic values in cancers. Whereas, the conclusion was still unclear according to the published data. To assess such roles of miR-196a in cancers, the present study was conducted based on published data and online cancer-related databases. To identify the relevant published data, we searched articles in databases and then the relevant data were extracted to evaluate the correlation between miR-196a expression and diagnosis, prognosis for cancer patients. The pooled results showed that miR-196a was a valuable diagnostic biomarker in cancer (area under curve (AUC) = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.84–0.90; sensitivity (SEN) = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.64–0.81; specificity (SPE) = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.81–0.95), which was consistent with the data from databases (breast cancer: miR-196a-3p: AUC = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.74–0.79; miR-196a-5p: AUC = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.66–0.75; pancreatic cancer: miR-196a-3p: AUC = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.73–0.87; miR-196a-5p: AUC = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.51–0.71). In addition, the pooled result revealed that elevated miR-196a expression in tumor tissues (HR = 2.54, 95% CI: 1.79–3.61, PHeterogeneity=0.000, I2 = 75.8%) or serum/plasma (HR = 4.06, 95% CI: 2.67–6.18, PHeterogeneity=0.668, I2 = 0%) of patients was an unfavorable survival biomarker, which was consistent with the data from databases (adrenocortical carcinoma: HR = 5.70; esophageal carcinoma: HR = 1.93; brain lower grade glioma: HR = 2.91; : HR = 2.47, 95% CI: 1.2–5.07; TCGA: HR = 1.82, 95% CI: 1.21–2.74; GSE40267: HR = 4.24, 95% CI: 1–18.06). In short, our results demonstrated that miR-196a in tumor tissue or serum/plasma could be used as a prognostic and diagnostic values for cancers. GSE19783相似文献

The DNA repair protein O6‐Methylguanine‐DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is suggested to be associated with resistance to alkylating agents such as Temozolomide which is being used in treatment of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Therefore, we evaluated the associations between MGMT promoter methylation and prognosis of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Data were extracted from publications in Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library. Data on overall survival (OS), progression‐free survival (PFS), and MGMT methylation status were obtained and 4,097 subjects were enrolled. Data from 34 studies showed that MGMT methylated patients had better OS, compared to GBM unmethylated patients (pooled HRs, 0.494; 95%CI 0.412–0.591; p = 0.001). Meta‐analysis of 10 eligible studies reporting on PFS, demonstrated that MGMT promoter methylation was not significantly associated with better PFS (pooled HRs, 0.653; 95%CI 0.414–1.030; p = 0.067). GBM patients with MGMT methylation were associated with longer overall survival, although this effect was not detected for PFS. Moreover, we performed further analysis in patients underwent a comprehensive imaging evaluation. This data showed a significant association with better OS and PFS, although further studies are warranted to assess the value of emerging marker in prospective setting in patients with glioblastoma as a risk stratification biomarker in clinical management of the patients. 相似文献

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and susceptibility for (pre)neoplastic cervical disease 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a critical enzyme regulating the metabolism of folate and methionine. The potential influence of MTHFR activity on DNA methylation and on the availability of uridylates and thymidylates for DNA synthesis and repair presents MTHFR as a candidate for being a cancer-predisposing gene. In the present study, we have examined a large study population to determine whether the C677T polymorphism at the MTHFR locus affects susceptibility for cervical cancer or its precursor, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). In addition, we have investigated whether this polymorphism is causal, and not merely associated, by typing microsatellite markers in the region surrounding the MTHFR gene. A total of 311 CIN and 695 cervical cancer patients and 115 family-based and 586 unrelated controls was analysed. Association analysis showed a decreased cervical cancer risk for individuals heterozygous or homozygous for the T-allele, both for squamous cell carcinoma (heterozygous odds ration [OR] 0.66 [0.51–0.86]; homozygous OR 0.76 [0.49–1.16]) and adenocarcinoma (heterozygous OR 0.71 [0.49–1.03]; homozygous OR 0.34 [0.14–0.81]). No difference was found for high grade CIN (heterozygous OR 1.03 [0.76–1.40]; homozygous OR 0.91 [0.54–1.55]). A microsatellite haplotype containing the C allele was associated with an increased risk for cervical cancer and CIN (both among squamous cell carcinomas, adenocarcinomas and CIN II–III; OR=2.61 [1.59–4.27]). Our study thus lends further support to the hypothesis that the MTHFR C677T polymorphism is involved in susceptibility cervical cancer but also illustrates that, despite the large sample size analysed, still larger studies are needed to establish fully the nature of this association. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of shiftwork on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level, as an index of glucose metabolism. A 14 yr prospective cohort study was conducted on day (n?=?4219) and alternating shiftworkers (n?=?2885) who received annual health checkups between 1991 and 2005 at a Japanese steel company. The endpoints were either a 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, or 30% increase in HbA1c during the period of observation, compared to HbA1c at entry to the study. The association between the type of job schedule and increase in HbA1c was investigated after adjusting for age, body mass index, mean arterial pressure, total serum cholesterol, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase, uric acid, drinking habit, smoking habit, and habitual exercise using multivariate pooled logistic regression analyses. Shiftwork was significantly associated with the various HbA1c endpoints (≥10% HbA1c increase, odds ratio 1.35 [95% confidence interval 1.26–1.44]; ≥15% HbA1c increase, odds ratio 1.29 [95% confidence interval, 1.19–1.40]; ≥20% HbA1c increase, odds ratio 1.23 [95% confidence interval 1.11–1.37]; and ≥25% HbA1c increase, odds ratio 1.19 [95% confidence interval 1.03–1.36]). Age, body mass index, alanine aminotransferase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were associated positively with all five HbA1c endpoints. Uric acid was associated negatively with all five HbA1c endpoints. Our study on male Japanese workers revealed alternating shiftwork (in addition to other established factors, such as age and body mass index) was a consistent risk factor for impaired glucose metabolism. 相似文献
