Background: Modular (universal) CAR T-platforms were developed to combat the limitations of traditional CAR-T therapy, allowing for multiple targeting of tumor-associated antigens and the ability to control CAR-T cell activity. The modular CAR-T platform consists of a universal receptor (signaling module) that recognizes an adapter molecule on the soluble module, which is responsible for antigen recognition. Multiple platforms have been developed over the last 12 years, and some of them have entered the clinical trial phase.

Such traumatic experiences and political conflict did affect the social, economic, psychological, and academic status of university students in Palestine, in particular, nursing students. However, resilience is one of the moderators which may positively decrease the severity of those negative war-related symptoms.

- Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) can lead to various cerebrovascular issues, but research on sex differences in SVD is limited.
- This study analyzed data from over 20,000 patients with acute ischemic stroke to examine whether the presence and severity of cerebral microbleeds (CMB) and other SVD markers differ between males and females.
- Results showed that males had more frequent CMB while females had fewer lacunes but higher severe white matter hyperintensities, indicating distinct SVD characteristics based on sex.
Article Synopsis
- MRI is used to assess retears of treated lateral menisci, specifically in children with both discoid and non-discoid forms.
- Out of 288 patients treated between 2018 and 2023, 20 experienced isolated retears, with 11 cases involving discoid meniscus and 10 non-discoid.
- MRI accurately identified 81.8% of DLM retears and 100% of non-DLM, suggesting it is effective for diagnosing meniscal retears, but highlights the importance of noting residual discoid elements in DLM cases.
Introduction: The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbal compound FYTF-919 (Zhong Feng Xing Nao prescription) may improve outcome from acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) by reducing brain edema, hematoma absorption, and enhancement of the immune system. We outline the statistical analysis plan (SAP) for the Chinese Herbal medicine in Acute INtracerebral haemorrhage (CHAIN) study.
Design: CHAIN is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial being undertaken at 20-30 hospitals in China.
