Background: Radiation-induced colorectal fibrosis (RICF) is a common pathological alteration among patients with rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). Anastomotic stenosis (AS) causes symptoms and negatively impacts patients' quality of life and long-term survival. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the fibrosis signature of RICF and develop a nomogram to predict the risk of AS in patients with rectal cancer undergoing nCRT.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how immunohistochemistry (IHC) subtyping can predict outcomes in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and surgery.
  • It finds that the IHC subtype before treatment is linked to the likelihood of a complete pathological response and long-term survival, while after treatment, the subtype can change in about 45% of cases.
  • The post-NAC subtype is a strong indicator of survival in patients with residual disease, suggesting the need for tailored therapy based on IHC subtype both before and after NAC.

Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly observed as regulatory factors for the initiation and progression of varying kinds of cancers. However, studies on lncRNAs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression are currently lacking.

Objectives: We intended to determine the role of lncRNA LINC00472 and its downstream regulatory mechanism in NSCLC, thus providing novel ideas for targeted therapies for NSCLC.

Liver cancer is a prevalent type of tumor worldwide. CRISPR-Cas9 technology can be utilized to identify therapeutic targets for novel therapeutic approaches. In this study, our goal was to identify key genes related to the survival of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells by analyzing the DepMap database based on CRISPR-Cas9.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most invasive and metastatic subtype of breast cancer. SUMO1-activating enzyme subunit 1 (SAE1), an E1-activating enzyme, is indispensable for protein SUMOylation. SAE1 has been found to be a relevant biomarker for progression and prognosis in several tumor types.

Background: The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) and the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) staging classifications are two broadly used systems for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. This study aims to identify the most accurate and useful tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system for poorly differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (pNECs).

Methods: An analysis was performed to evaluate the application of the ENETS, 7th edition (7th) AJCC and 8th edition (8th) AJCC staging classifications using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry (N = 568 patients), and a modified system based on the analysis of the 7th AJCC classification was proposed.

Background: Automated systems (MicroScan WalkAway 96 Plus, Phoenix 100, and Vitek 2 Compact) are widely used in clinical laboratories nowadays. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of these three systems for susceptibility testing of aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones against Carbapenem-resistant (CRE).

Methods: A total of 75 CRE isolates were used in this study.

Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is prevalent around the world. Rapid and accurate detection of CRE is urgently needed to provide effective treatment. Automated identification systems have been widely used in clinical microbiology laboratories for rapid and high-efficient identification of pathogenic bacteria.

Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main cause of cervical cancer. Limited epidemiologic data of HPV prevalence are available for women attending hospitals in southern China. This study aimed to evaluate the profiles of HPV infection and cytology status in gynecological outpatients in Chaozhou City.

Several residential areas in Dalian, north of China, were selected to investigate the influence of combined traffic noise pollution on urban residents. The software Cadna/A was used to estimate the day-night equivalent noise level (L(dn)) at 1m from the windows of each building, which were modified according to the actual data. Annoyance has been identified as the most important psychological impact of noise.

A survey of community annoyance induced by aircraft noise exposure was carried out around Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport. To investigate the relationship curves between aircraft noise and the percentage of "highly annoyed" persons in China and also to get annoyance threshold of aircraft noise in China. Noise annoyance induced by aircraft noise exposure was assessed by 764 local residents around the airport using the International Commission on Biological Effect of Noise (ICBEN) scale.

Article Synopsis
  • HPV infection is the main cause of cervical cancer, with a study conducted on rural women in Chaozhou, China, revealing a 7.89% high-risk HPV prevalence among 48,559 cases.
  • The study identified age (55-60 years) as a peak incidence group, and found that the most common HPV types were 52, 16, and 58, with a significant portion (48.23%) of infections involving types 52 and 58 combined.
  • Results suggest a low prevalence of HPV vaccine types 16 and 18, indicating the potential benefit of developing second-generation HPV vaccines targeting types 52 and 58 for better protection in this rural population.

In order to investigate the physiological effects of airport noise exposure on organisms, in this study, we exposed Sprague-Dawley rats in soundproof chambers to previously recorded aircraft-related noise for 65 d. For comparison, we also used unexposed control rats. Noise was arranged according to aircraft flight schedules and was adjusted to its weighted equivalent continuous perceived noise levels (L(WECPN)) of 75 and 80 dB for the two experimental groups.
