Background: Matrix-producing carcinoma (MPC) is a rare tumor accounting for 0.1% of all breast cancers. Although MPC is usually triple-negative breast cancer, there have been few reports of preoperative chemotherapy for MPC that is considered chemotherapy-resistant.

- - The study investigates biological features (BFs) of residual tumors in patients with ER-positive/HER2-negative luminal breast cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), aiming to find prognostic factors.
- - 57 patients were evaluated for clinical and pathological stages, and BFs before and after NAC, using the YR-IHC4 model to categorize BFs as high or low risk.
- - Results showed a significant difference in relapse-free survival rates between the low-risk (84.2%) and high-risk (52.5%) groups, suggesting that BFs post-NAC could serve as important prognostic indicators.
In this study, we investigated the cooperative molecular dynamics of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), ice, and uncrystallized water (UCW) in partially crystallized PVP-water mixtures by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy. Three relaxation processes, denoted I, II, and III, were observed at temperatures ranging from immediately below the crystallization temperature () to approximately 200 K. At temperatures of 173-193 K, processes I and II cannot be distinguished.
