The validation results of external data sets show that our model has good predictive value for ccRCC patients. The model can be an independent prognostic factor. Finally, the results show that our model has a stable predictive ability.

The autophagy gene model we constructed can be used as an excellent prognostic indicator for ccRCC. Our study provides the possibility of individualized and precise treatment for ccRCC patients.

Nevertheless, there is limited information regarding the role of miR-106a-5p in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Herein, we demonstrate that miR-106a-5p levels are drastically decreased in clear cell RCC (ccRCC) tissues and cell lines, which subsequently contribute to a poor patient overall survival and a high tumor stage. By screening and analyzing, we found that miR-106a-5p directly targets the 3'-UTR of the VEGFA mRNA and led to a decrease in VEGFA. This process is important for tumor cells' growth and colony formation, and overexpression of miR-106a-5p can especially kill kidney tumor cells. Therefore, our data reveal that miR-106a-5p functions as a tumor suppressor by regulating VEGFA and ccRCC may be susceptible to miR-106a-5p therapy.
Our study was aimed at investigating the mechanistic consequences of the upregulation of
(
) in glioblastoma (GBM).

The expression of
in GBM was assessed by bioinformatics analysis and qRT-PCR; the effects of
on GBM cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo were detected by a CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, scratch assay, Transwell assay, and subcutaneous tumor formation, respectively. The activation of related signaling pathways was monitored using western blot.

Tumor-related databases and bioinformatics analysis revealed that
was highly expressed in GBM and indicated poor outcome of patients; its high expression that was also confirmed in GBM tissues and cell lines was closely related to the tumor size. The results of in vitro experiments showed that
could significantly promote GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion; in vivo experiments suggested that
could contribute to the growth of GBM tumors.
could upregulate the level of
phosphorylation, decrease
expression, activate the NF-
B signaling pathway, and promote the expression of downstream oncogenes.

Upregulated
in GBM promotes GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and facilitates tumor growth in vivo by activating the classical NF-
B pathway.
Upregulated AEBP1 in GBM promotes GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and facilitates tumor growth in vivo by activating the classical NF-κB pathway.
The COVID-19 pandemic is becoming a major hazard to public health worldwide. This is causing a significant impact on life and physical health, as well as on the psychological well-being of the general population. Since the emotional distress and the social restrictions caused by this epidemic, it must be expected that its impact will also extend to sexual health. The purpose of this study, the first including a large sample of the Spanish general population, was to analyze sexual behavior during the 99days of confinement in Spain (INSIDE Project).

One thousand four hundred forty-eight Spanish people, between 18 and 60years old, were evaluated through an online survey during April 2020. The variables analyzed were the physical and social environment during confinement, sexual desire, type of sexual activity, masturbation, sexual intercourse, online sexual activity, general sexual frequency, sexual fantasies, degree of self-control over sexual drive, sexual abuse, general impact of confinement on sexuality, and emotional mood.

Confinement has affected the sexual life of half of the Spanish population (47.7%), especially women. Those who reported a worsening of their sexual life are almost three times more (37.9%) than those who reported an improvement (14.4%).

Different factors have been significant predictors of the positive or negative evaluation about the impact of this confinement on sexual life, such as gender, couple life, privacy, stress level, and the perception of confinement as unbearable.

These results have important implications for the public health and more especially sexual health of the Spanish population.

Mantram or holy name repetition has long been practiced in every major religious tradition. Repetition of a mantram as a mindfulness practice is helpful for stress management and resilience building. The objective of this article is to provide an overview of the key features of mantram and the Mantram Repetition Program (MRP) developed in the US Veterans Healthcare System, the evidence base for the MRP, and its applications.

MRP practices are portable and do not require an extended or regularized period of sitting, in contrast to most methods of meditation. Core functions of MRP practices include focus shifting, frame activation, and fostering of mindfulness. We review scientific research, including multiple randomized trials, that has investigated the MRP.

Research on the MRP has documented reductions in posttraumatic stress symptoms, insomnia, hyperarousal, and depression, as well as enhancement of quality of life, self-efficacy, and mindfulness. Mantram repetition may possess comparative advantages frepetition can be readily used in the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on healthcare workers, patients, and the public.
Compassion is the beneficial response of an individual to the sufferings and difficulties of others. Self-compassion refers to feelings of concern an individual feel towards oneself. Both may serve as potential buffers in a hospital setting where caregivers attending to patients in critical condition experience emotional distress, which may lead to burnout. However, the unique contribution of compassion, both to self and others, to the decrease of burnout is unclear.

In the present study, we recruited 109 professional caregivers working in a hospital's intensive care and rehabilitative units. We explored a theoretically driven mediation model in which the relationship between compassion for self and others and burnout is mediated by different basic psychological needs, detailed in the self-determination theory.

Results indicated that self-compassion and concern for others were associated with reduced levels of burnout. Each of these buffers against burnout was mediated by a unique psychological need, thereby supporting a three-layered model of (a) compassion and self-compassion, (b) basic psychological needs, and (c) burnout.
