Adjuvant PD-1 Blockade With Camrelizumab for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: The DIPPER Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Approximately 20% to 30% of patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) experience disease relapse despite definitive chemoradiotherapy. The programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) blockade camrelizumab has demonstrated considerable value in recurrent or metastatic NPC, while its role in locoregionally advanced NPC is unclear.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant camrelizumab for patients with locoregionally advanced NPC.

The application of 3D printing technology in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers: an integrated strategy for glycemic control and wound care.

Introduction: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a severe complication of diabetes, often leading to amputation. Hyperglycemia induced nerve and vascular damage significantly increases DFU risk. The advent of 3D printing technology presents a revolutionary concurrently address glycemic control and wound management, potentially improving patient adherence and offering a more holistic treatment strategy.

Fermentation and exogenous enzymes can increase ileal, hindgut, and total tract energy digestibility of palm kernel cake in growing pigs.

This study assessed how fermentation and exogenous enzymes affect nutrient digestibility and energy values of palm kernel cake (PKC) in growing pigs. Eighteen pigs were fed six diets: a basal diet, PKC (100 or 200 g/kg), fermented PKC (FPKC; 100 or 200 g/kg), or enzymolysis PKC (EPKC; 100 g/kg). Chromium oxide was used to determine digestibility coefficients.

Assessing the diagnostic utility of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in evaluating coronary artery disease.

ObjectiveThis retrospective study aimed to investigate the correlation between the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and the severity of coronary stenosis (SYNTAX score) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD), thereby assessing CPET's diagnostic value.MethodsWe classified 220 patients who underwent coronary angiography into coronary heart disease (CHD) and non-CHD groups based on stenosis severity. Patients with SCAD were categorized into mild, moderate, and severe groups by the SYNTAX score.

A novel method to assess antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity against influenza A virus M2 in immunized murine models.

The matrix protein 2 (M2) is a preferred target for developing a universal vaccine against the influenza A virus (IAV). This study aimed to develop a method for assessing antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) associated with M2-based immunization in mice. We first established a stable cell line derived from mouse lymphoma cells (YAC-1) expressing M2 of H3N2.
