Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly malignant tumor in women, characterized by high morbidity, mortality, and recurrence rates. Although surgical treatment, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are the mainstays of current treatment methods, the high heterogeneity of TNBC results in unsatisfactory outcomes with low 5-year survival rates. Rapid advancements in omics technology have propelled the understanding of TNBC molecular biology.

Breast cancer has a high incidence and a heightened propensity for metastasis. The absence of precise targets for effective intervention makes it imperative to devise enhanced treatment strategies. Exosomes, characterized by a lipid bilayer and ranging in size from 30 to 150 nm, can be actively released by various cells, including those in tumors.

Surface defect detection of strip steel is an important guarantee for improving the production quality of strip steel. However, due to the diverse types, scales, and texture structures of surface defects on strip steel, as well as the irregular distribution of defects, it is difficult to achieve rapid and accurate detection of strip steel surface defects with existing methods. This article proposes a real-time and high-precision surface defect detection algorithm for strip steel based on YOLOv7.

Article Synopsis
  • Combined pituitary hormone deficiency 3 (CPHD3) is linked to mutations in the LHX3 gene on chromosome 9, crucial for pituitary development during fetal life.
  • An 11-year-old boy exhibited symptoms of CPHD, including pituitary hormone deficiency and other developmental issues, leading to genetic testing that identified two harmful mutations in the LHX3 gene.
  • This study highlights previously unreported genetic mutations in LHX3 and documents the patient's diagnosis and treatment, contributing valuable information for CPHD management.
