Purpose: In the context of rising breast cancer incidence and mortality rates in Mexico, our study delves into the genomic landscape of Mexican women diagnosed with stage I-III breast cancer.
Methods: Employing the EndoPredict test for genomic analysis, our retrospective, cross-sectional study explores correlations between genomic expression and immunohistochemistry (IHC).
Results: Among 50 female patients, risk stratification by IHC revealed 50 % as high risk and 50 % as low risk, with notable clinical and histological distinctions between the two groups.
The mirid bugs Lygus hesperus (Knight) and L. elisus (van Duzee) are key pests of forage, fiber, and fruit crops. Our goals were to identify pheromone components produced by females of both species and to develop practical pheromone dispensers for use in monitoring these pests.

Nevertheless, there is still room for the development and improvement of 3D bioprinted skin cancer models. The need for reproducible bioprinting methods, cell samples, biomaterial inks, and bioinks is becoming increasingly important.

Although there are a wide range of therapies, the majority of them are not satisfactory due to side effects, pain due to intralesional injections or limited efficacy. In this study, we sought to evaluate the efficacy, influence factors, and safety of 308 nm excimer lamp used in a monthly basis in a double-stacked pulse manner for the treatment of AA.
