Real-World Evidence of the Impact of CanAssist Breast on Physician's Decision About the Use of Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Early Breast Cancer.

Background Clinicians use prognostic biomarker/multi-gene-based tests for predicting recurrence in hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) early-stage breast cancer (EBC). CanAssist Beast (CAB) uses the expression of five protein biomarkers in combination with tumor-specific parameters such as tumor size, histopathological grade, and lymph node status to predict the risk of distant recurrence within five years of diagnosis for patients with HR+/HER2-, EBC. The current study aimed to evaluate the impact of prognostic tests on adjuvant chemotherapy decisions by assessing the agreement between clinical and CAB risk stratification as low-risk (LR) or high-risk (HR) for distant recurrence.

Managing Recurrent Carbon Dioxide Embolism During Laparoscopic Hepatectomy With Transesophageal Echocardiography Guidance: A Case Report.

Carbon dioxide gas emboli is a potentially fatal complication that occurs more frequently during laparoscopic hepatectomy compared to other laparoscopic surgeries. The patient featured in this report had massive gas embolism confirmed by intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) that were associated with episodes of severe hypoxemia, hemodynamic instability, and right ventricular failure requiring conversion to open hepatectomy. Abrupt abdominal decompression resulted in massive hemorrhage from a previously undetected defect in the middle hepatic vein.

Anti-Dyslipidemic Potential of Sulfated Glycosaminoglycan from Rock Oyster Saccostrea cucullata: An in vivo study.

The rock oyster, Saccostrea cucullata, native to the Indo-Pacific region, is renowned for its nutritional and therapeutic benefits. A sulfated glycosaminoglycan (SCP-2) with β-(1→3)-GlcNSp and α-(1→4)-GlcAp as recurring units isolated from S. cucullata.

A Comprehensive Review of Food Safety Culture in the Food Industry: Leadership, Organizational Commitment, and Multicultural Dynamics.

Food safety culture (FSC) has transitioned from a narrow compliance-based concept to a comprehensive organisational value that is essential for ensuring food safety. This review explores the pivotal roles of leadership, organisational commitment, and cultural diversity in shaping an effective FSC. It highlights how leadership style, particularly transformational leadership, can enhance employee engagement and foster a proactive safety culture.

Adjunctive nivolumab in combination with antibiotic therapy for the management of refractory melioidosis in a patient with metastatic breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced pancytopenia.

Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, is intrinsically resistant to multiple classes of antibiotics and primarily affects immunocompromised individuals, such as those with poorly controlled diabetes or malignancies. In this case, a 58-y-old female farmer with poorly controlled diabetes (HbA1c of 11.4%), metastatic breast cancer with chemotherapy-induced pancytopenia and disseminated melioidosis showed no improvement despite receiving antibiotics and supportive care.
