Clinicopathological and Molecular Study of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer in Algerian Patients.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with aggressive tumor behavior, poor prognosis and BRCA1 mutations. There are limited data regarding TNBC among Algerian women. In this study, we sought to determine clinical and tumor characteristics associated with TNBC.

Dynamics and effects of Ligula intestinalis (L.) infection in the native fish Barbus callensis Valenciennes, 1842 in Algeria.

The dynamics of the emergence, duration, and decline phases in epizootic cycles are well known for humans and some crops, but they are poorly understood for host-parasite systems in the wild. Parasites may be particularly insidious as they are often introduced unintentionally, simultaneously with their hosts, and later transferred to species in the new location. Here we investigate the epizootic dynamics of the tapeworm Ligula intestinalis in the Hamiz reservoir, Algeria, and explore its effects on the cyprinid fish Barbus callensis.

Distribution of molecular breast cancer subtypes among Algerian women and correlation with clinical and tumor characteristics: a population-based study.

Background: Breast cancer is currently the leading cause of cancer morbidity and mortality among Algerian women. Molecular classification of breast cancer is an important factor for prognosis and clinical outcome. There are limited data regarding molecular breast cancer subtypes among Algerian women.
