BMC Res Notes
February 2024
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been documented as the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer. This study aimed to analyze antitumor and protumor immune activities, and their ratios as significant prognostic biomarkers in metastatic TNBC (mTNBC).
Methods: A multicenter cohort study was conducted among 103 de novo mTNBC patients.
Article Synopsis
- Iron overload is a significant issue in thalassemia patients, particularly those dependent on blood transfusions, which can exacerbate oxidative stress as measured by malondialdehyde (MDA) levels.* -
- A study involving 63 adult patients analyzed MDA levels before and after blood transfusions and found no significant change or correlation between MDA and iron overload markers like serum ferritin (SF) or transferrin saturation (TS).* -
- The results suggest that, despite blood transfusions increasing iron levels in thalassemia patients, there is no corresponding rise in oxidative stress as indicated by MDA levels.*
Aim: to assess the current use of anticoagulants and implementation of International Guidelines in venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in hospitalized patients with acute medical illnesses in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Methods: a multicenter, prospective, disease registry, recruiting patients diagnosed as acutely ill medical diseases and other medical conditions at risk of VTE, with in-hospital immobilization for at least 3 days.
Results: of 401 patients, 46.
Aim: To obtain a depiction of insulin resistance and to determine the correlation between age, body mass index, and insulin resistance, and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in elderly women living in nursing homes.
Methods: Ninety two elderly females with an average age of 71.4 (SD 7.
