Efficacy and Safety of Ginger

This dataset reflects the RNA sequencing in ex vivo fetal lungs collected from ICR mice at an age of 11.5 embryonic (E) days exposed to diesel exhaust particles (DEP) at 0 (control group) and 50 μg/mL (DEP group) for 3 days. The dataset includes the summary of the gene sequenced, differentially expressed genes (DEG), and genes annotated by Disease Ontology (DO), Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways.

HN RCT

This dataset provides the RNA sequencing of MLE-12 cells exposed to lipopolysaccharides (LPS) at 0 (control group) or 1 (LPS group) μg/mL for 2 hours, followed by coculturing with human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs; LPS + MSC group) for cell collection at 6 or 12 hours. The dataset includes the summary of gene quantification, differentially expressed genes (DEG), and gene annotation from Disease Ontology (DO), Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG).

Background: No consensus exists on the appropriate timing of adjuvant radiotherapy administration after surgical excision of keloids. Objective: This study investigated the appropriate timing of adjuvant radiotherapy. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and observational cohort studies were performed. A pooled estimate of the incidence rate was performed using a random-effect model. Subgroup analyses based on different anatomic regions, biological effective dose, keloid length, and radiotherapy regimen were also conducted. Results: Sixteen observational cohort studies (1908 keloid lesions) met the inclusion criteria. The incidence rate was significantly reduced in the group treated more than 24 h after surgery (3.80%; 95% CI: 1.78% to 8.13%) compared with the group treated within 24 h (37.16%; 95% CI: 20.80% to 66.37%) (P < .0001) with electron beam therapy but was not significantly different between the groups with brachytherapy and X-ray treatment. Limitations: Most of the included studies were single-arm nonrandomized observational studies. Therefore, randomized controlled trials are warranted to validate the appropriate timing of postoperative radiotherapy. Conclusion: Immediate adjuvant radiotherapy led to no significant reduction in the incidence rate of recurrent keloids
