Impact of steroid-sparing immunosuppressive agents on tumor outcome in the context of cancer immunotherapy with highlight on melanoma: a systematic literature review and meta-analysis.

Background: The impact of steroid-sparing immunosuppressive agents (SSIAs) for immune-related adverse events (irAEs) on tumor outcome is not well-known. This systematic review evaluates tumor outcomes for corticosteroid (CS) monotherapy versus CS with SSIA (CS-SSIA) for irAE treatment with a focus on melanoma.

Methods: Search was conducted through 1/5/23 using PubMed, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, and Web of Science.

Dynamical evolution of a five-level atom interacting with an intensity-dependent coupling regime influenced by a nonlinear Kerr-like medium.

We present an analytical solution for a quantum system characterized by a double five-level atom interacting with an intensity-dependent coupling regime, influenced by a nonlinear Kerr-like medium. We also derive the constants of motion through Heisenberg's equations. Furthermore, the dynamical evolution of the entanglement and quantum coherence between the atom and the field is discussed using linear entropy and -norm of coherence.

Skeletal Manifestations of Gaucher's Disease: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Gaucher's disease (GD) is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the storage of glucosylceramide in macrophages ("Gaucher cells"), mainly in the reticuloendothelial system. GD type 1 (GD1) is the most common phenotype that usually manifests with hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenias, and bone involvement. Skeletal manifestations are the most debilitating characteristic and result in significant morbidities.
