Abstract Prostate cancer is the fifth leading cause of male cancer mortality and poses a serious threat to men's health worldwide. PSA testing is widely used in prostate cancer screening, but its high false-positive rate leads to unnecessarily high subsequent testing costs, mental anguish and potential physical harm to patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a convenient, cost-effective and non-invasive diagnostic method to assist in reducing the false-positive rate of PSA screening. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum MicroRNA expression in patients with prostate cancer. We selected 10 miRNAs in the literature that were associated with prostate cancer. Afterwards, we measured the expression levels of these miRNAs in serum of 112 prostate cancer patients and healthy controls through a training phase and a validation phase. By plotting receiver operating characteristic curve, the miRNAs with the highest diagnosis value were chosen. Then, a set of miRNAs with the top diagnostic value was identified using stepwise logistic regression. The findings showed that 5 kinds of miRNAs (let-7b-5p, miR-15a-5p, miR-133a-3p, miR-15b-5p, miR-144-3p) were abnormally expressed in the serum of prostate cancer patients. The diagnostic panel constructed with these 3 miRNAs including let-7b-5p, miR-15a-5p miR-15b-5p and which have high specificity and sensitivity in detecting prostate cancer (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.899). Our study illustrates the potential of a three-microRNA panel in the diagnosis of prostate cancer, which can help in the early detection of prostate cancer and may even assist in reducing the false-positive rate of PSA screening.
Background Gastric cancer poses a severe risk to public health and has a substantial financial impact. Tumor markers such as CEA, CA125, CA19-9, and others, as well as the fecal occult blood test (FOBT), are frequently utilized for gastric cancer screening and initial diagnosis. However, false-positive results of FOBT, CEA, CA125, and CA19-9 can lead to misdiagnosis and erroneous gastroscopy, while their false-negative results can lead to missed diagnosis and delayed treatment.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract, often accompanied by poor prognosis and high incidence and mortality. p21 activated kinases (PAKs) have been used as therapeutic targets because of their central role in many oncogenic signaling networks. By exploring tumor databases, we found that PAK1 overexpression is associated with poor prognosis in colorectal cancer, and therefore, PAK1-targeted inhibition is a new potential therapeutic strategy for colorectal cancer. We identified that Balanol (compound 6, DB04098) can effectively target PAK1 by high-throughput virtual screening. In vitro, compound 6 exhibited favorable PAK1 inhibition with potent anti-proliferative and anti-migration activity in SW480 cells. Additionally, we also found that compound 6 induced apoptosis and cytoprotective autophagy in SW480 cells. Together, these results indicate that compound 6 is a potential novel PAK1 inhibitor, which would be utilized as a candidate compound for future CRC treatment.

Results The sensitivity of YiDiXie™-SS was 98.5% (95% CI: 97.5% - 99.2%) and its specificity was 65.2% (95% CI: 44.9% - 81.2%). This means that YiDiXie ™ -SS has an extremely high sensitivity and relatively high specificity in thyroid tumors.YiDiXie™-HS has a sensitivity of 84.3% (95% CI: 81.6% - 86.6%) and a specificity of 87.0% (95% CI: 67.9% - 95.5%). This means that YiDiXie™-HS has high sensitivity and specificity in thyroid tumors.YiDiXie™-D has a sensitivity of 75.5% (95% CI: 72.4% - 78.3%) and a specificity of 95.7% (95% CI: 79.0% - 99.8%). This means that YiDiXie™-D has relatively high sensitivity and very high specificity in thyroid tumors.The sensitivity of YiDiXie™-SS in patients with positive thyroid ultrasound was 98.4% (95% CI: 97.3% - 99.1%) and the specificity was 64.3% (95% CI: 38.8% - 83.7%). This means that the application of YiDiXie ™ -SS reduced the false-positive thyroid ultrasound rate by 64.3% (95% CI: 38.8% - 83.7%) with essentially no increase in malignant tumor underdiagnosis.The sensitivity of YiDiXie™-HS in thyroid ultrasound-negative patients was 90.0% (95% CI: 79.9% - 95.3%) and the specificity 88.9% (95% CI: 56.9%). (95% CI: 56.5% - 99.4%). This means that the application of YiDiXie™-HS reduced the false negative rate of thyroid ultrasound by 90.0% (95% CI: 79.9% - 95.3%).YiDiXie ™-D has a sensitivity of 75.3% (95% CI: 72.1% - 78.2%) and a specificity of 92.9% (95% CI: 68.5% - 99.6%) in patients with positive thyroid ultrasound. This means that YiDiXie™-D reduces the rate of false-positive thyroid ultrasounds by 92.9% (95% CI: 68.5% - 99.6%). YiDiXie™-D has a sensitivity of 78.3% (95% CI: 66.4% - 86.9%) and a specificity of 100% (95% CI: 70.1% - 100%) in patients with negative thyroid ultrasounds. This means that YiDiXie™-D reduces the false-negative rate of thyroid ultrasound by 78.3% (95% CI: 66.4% - 86.9%) while maintaining high specificity. Conclusion YiDiXie™-SS has extremely high sensitivity and relatively high specificity in thyroid tumors.YiDiXie™-HS has high sensitivity and high specificity in thyroid tumors.YiDiXie ™ -D has relatively high sensitivity and extremely high specificity in thyroid tumors. YiDiXie™-SS significantly reduces thyroid ultrasound false-positive rates with essentially no increase in delayed treatment for thyroid cancer.YiDiXie ™ -HS significantly reduces thyroid ultrasound false-negative rates.YiDiXie™-D significantly reduces thyroid ultrasound false-positive rates or significantly reduces its false-negative rates while maintaining high specificity. YiDiXie™ tests have vital diagnostic value in thyroid cancer, and are expected to solve the problems of “high false-positive rate” and “high false-negative rate” of thyroid ultrasound.
