Hypersensitivity and in-stent restenosis in coronary stent materials.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a type of cardiovascular disease with the highest mortality rate worldwide. Percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention (PCI) is the most effective method for treating CHD. However, in-stent restenosis (ISR), a long-term complication after PCI, affects the prognosis of patients with CHD.

Construction of a predictive model for immunotherapy efficacy in lung squamous cell carcinoma based on the degree of tumor-infiltrating immune cells and molecular typing.

Background: To construct a predictive model of immunotherapy efficacy for patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) based on the degree of tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIIC) in the tumor microenvironment (TME).

Methods: The data of 501 patients with LUSC in the TCGA database were used as a training set, and grouped using non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) based on the degree of TIIC assessed by single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Two data sets (GSE126044 and GSE135222) were used as validation sets.
