Prediction of tumor origin in cancers of unknown primary origin with cytology-based deep learning

Prediction of tumor origin in cancers of unknown primary origin with cytology-based deep learning

Background Introduction Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) is a type of malignant disease that is confirmed to be metastatic through histopathology but whose primary site cannot be identified using conventional baseline diagnostic methods. CUP presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in clinical practice and is believed to account fo...

Intrathecal Bivalent CAR T Cells Targeting EGFR and IL13Rα2 in Recurrent Glioblastoma: Phase 1 Trial Interim Results

Intrathecal Bivalent CAR T Cells Targeting EGFR and IL13Rα2 in Recurrent Glioblastoma: Phase 1 Trial Interim Results

The Effectiveness of Bivalent CAR T-Cell Therapy Targeting EGFR and IL13Rα2 in Treating Recurrent Glioblastoma In recent years, the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma (RGBM) has been continually explored and improved, yet overall survival rates remain less than one year, presenting a significant challenge. The limitations of existing treatments an...

Integrative Molecular and Spatial Analysis Reveals Evolutionary Dynamics and Tumor-Immune Interplay of In Situ and Invasive Acral Melanoma

Integrative Molecular and Spatial Analysis Reveals Evolutionary Dynamics and Tumor-Immune Interplay of In Situ and Invasive Acral Melanoma

Integrated Molecular and Spatial Analysis Reveals Evolutionary Dynamics and Tumor-Immune Interactions in In Situ and Invasive Acral Melanoma Academic Background of the Paper Melanoma is a type of skin cancer, and acral melanoma (AM) is a kind that occurs on non-exposed areas such as the palms, soles, and under the nails and is particularly common a...

Development and Standardization of an Osteoradionecrosis Classification System in Head and Neck Cancer: Implementation of a Risk-Based Model

Development and Standardization of an Osteoradionecrosis Classification System in Head and Neck Cancer: Implementation Based on Risk Model In recent years, the side effects brought by the treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC), especially radiotherapy, have become a focal point of academic attention. Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is one of the most sev...

Clinical and Genomic-Based Decision Support System to Define the Optimal Timing of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation in Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndromes

Clinical and Genomic-Based Decision Support System to Define the Optimal Timing of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation in Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndromes

Background Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) are a group of heterogeneous diseases originating from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells, characterized by reduced blood cell production. Although certain progress in treatment has been made in recent years, allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) remains the only potentially curative ...

Intimate Care Products and Incidence of Hormone-Related Cancers: A Quantitative Bias Analysis

Incidence of Hormone-Related Cancers and Intimate Care Products Introduction In recent years, there has been an increasing concern about the safety of intimate care products that may contain potential endocrine disrupting chemicals, such as phthalates, parabens, and bisphenols. These chemicals are believed to alter endogenous hormone levels, influe...

Extent of Resection Thresholds in Molecular Subgroups of Newly Diagnosed Isocitrate Dehydrogenase–Wildtype Glioblastoma

Extent of Resection Thresholds in Molecular Subgroups of Newly Diagnosed Isocitrate Dehydrogenase–Wildtype Glioblastoma

Study on the Extent of Resection Threshold in Different Molecular Subtypes of Newly Diagnosed IDH-wildtype Glioblastoma Introduction Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor in adults. Although surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are the current standard treatment regimens, the prognosis of GBM remains poor, with a...

Targeting PRMT9-mediated arginine methylation suppresses cancer stem cell maintenance and elicits CGAS-mediated anticancer immunity

This study revolves around the protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT9, revealing its important role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its potential as an anticancer target. Researchers found that PRMT9 expression levels were significantly elevated in AML stem cells and leukemic cells. Through gene editing and chemical probes, they discovered th...
