Adult studies suggest that low androgen levels induce ovarian insufficiency, but data on about this in children is limited. This study aims to assess the prevalence of low androgen levels in childhood POI and its relationship with adrenal insufficiency.

Methods: A total of 80 children (40 with T1DM and 40 healthy controls) were included in this cross-sectional study. Enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) images of all participants were analyzed.
Objective: Hormone positive breast cancer is a tumor with high mortality. Combining antihormonal therapy with cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) has resulted in longer survival. The effect of inflammatory parameters such as c-reactive protein and c-reactive protein/lymphocyte ratio (CLR) on efficacy and survival in CDK4/6i treatment is unknown.

This retrospective study included 38 patients with NSCLC driver mutations. The relationship between clinical and inflammatory markers concerning progression-free survival and overall survival was analyzed based on Kaplan-Meier curves.
