Digestive system cancer and COVID-19 significantly affect the digestive system, but mechanism of interaction between cancers has not been fully elucidated. We downloaded gene expression seven (oral, esophageal, gastric, colorectal, hepatocellular, bile duct, pancreatic) from GEO identified hub differentially expressed genes. Multiple verifications, diagnostic efficacy, prognostic analysis, func...

The digestive system of any animal is important in converting the food the animal eats into the nutrients its body needs for growth, maintenance, and production (such as egg production). An animal's body breaks down food through both mechanical and chemical means. In many animals, mechanical action involves chewing; however, because birds do not have teeth, their bodies use other mechanical act...

Sturgeon is one of the most important species of the Caspian Sea aquatics. Unfortunately, this species faces the threat of extinction today. This makes specific studies on any type of sturgeons more important than before. Studies like histological studies, radiology, and sonography, all require a complete understanding of the anatomy of this fish. Since pilot studies showed some misconceptions ...

Introduction: Since the 1950s, air travel has grown exponentially. In 2018, the number of international air passengers was estimated at 4.1 billion. Air travel exposes the passenger to a number of constraints (like physical constraints, stress) that can be correlated and lead to an inflight medical event, especially for passengers with chronic conditions or fragile health.<br /...

A young filly in a stall at a high-class boarding stable lay down in her stall, got up, and lay down again, with dull, glassy eyes. She tried to roll before the caretaker caught her and haltered her, walking her slowly until the veterinarian could come to see her. When the veterinarian arrived, she listened to the filly’s gut sounds with the stethoscope to see if they were abnormal, and diagnos...

PURPOSE The expression of pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) has been linked to tumor formation and invasion. Specifically, the relationship between high PKM2 expression and prognosis has been evaluated in solid tumors of digestive system. However, the prognostic value of PKM2 remains controversial. METHODS A literature search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases was conducted until October 2015....
