Clear cell renal carcinoma (CCRC) is the most common type of renal carcinoma. We hope to find out the potential key genes playing important roles in CCRC genesis and progression by analysing the recent expression profiling by array from 2014 to 2016. In order to find out the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between CCRC and normal renal tissue. ⋯ LOX was finally believed to be the most reliable prognostic factor since it has prognostic value for both overall survival and recurrence-free survival analysis. Our analysis suggests that LOX is the most reliable prognostic factor for CCRC patients. Key Words: Renal clear cell carcinoma, Microarray datasets, Bioinformatics approach, Prognostic factor, LOX.

Flow-through Dorsoulnar Perforator Flap Repair of Soft-Tissue Defect of the Finger with Segmental Digital Arterial Defect.
The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of transferring the free flow-through dorsoulnar perforator flap to reconstruct severely injured fingers. From January 2015 to March 2019, 16 patients, 16 thumb or fingers volar partial defects concomitant with segmental digital arterial defects, were included in this study. The flow-through dorsoulnar perforator flaps were used to repair the finger wounds and reconstruct digit arteries. ⋯ According to the Total Active Motion (TAM) method: nine fingers were excellent, four were good, and three were fair. The free flow-through dorsoulnar perforator flap can achieve the goal of mending finger soft-tissue conditions complicated with segmental digital arterial defects with good results. Key Words: Flow-through flaps, Perforator flap, Dorsoulnar artery, Soft-tissue defect.
