The routine adoption of health seeking self-care behaviours can prevent or delay the appearance of various lifestyle diseases including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Microlearning delivers complex knowledge in fragments or bite-size 'nuggets' of information and has been applied as a novel intervention to improve individual's self-care capabilities. The aim of this research was to systematically review the literature to determine the effectiveness of microlearning in improving individual self-care capability. A search was conducted on 15 July 2019 across five electronic bibliographic databases EMBASE, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL and Scopus. Randomised and non-randomised controlled trials, controlled before-after studies and interrupted time series studies, published between 1 January 1990 and 15 July 2019 and looking at individuals of all ages were incl positively influence individuals' cognitive self-care capabilities but was largely ineffective in triggering actual self-care behaviour change. More studies are needed to investigate the effectiveness of microlearning in improving self-care capabilities amongst the general population at scale.The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smads signal plays an important role in cancer metastasis by mediating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer cells. lnc-TSI is a recently identified long noncoding RNA that negatively regulates the TGF-β/Smads signal. The present study was conducted to test the hypothesis that lnc-TSI inhibits metastasis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) by regulating the TGF-β/Smad3 pathway. Herein, we show that lnc-TSI was upregulated in ccRCC cells and tissue and was associated with activation of the TGF-β/Smads signal. Depleting lnc-TSI enhanced tumor cell invasion and metastasis
