Background: EGFR kinase domain duplication (EGFR-KDD) is an infrequent oncogenic driver mutation in lung adenocarcinoma. It may be a potential target benefit from EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) treatment.
Case Presentation: A 66-year-old Chinese male was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma in stage IVb with brain metastases.
Purpose: In spinal tuberculosis surgery, topical administration of drugs to the lesion is a preventive treatment measure. The aim is to achieve better bacterial inhibition and to prevent complications. As one of the most common complications after spinal tuberculosis surgery, many factors can lead to surgical site infection (SSI).

In this work, we explore neat yet effective Transformer-based frameworks for visual grounding. The previous methods generally address the core problem of visual grounding, i.e.

Methods: Under simulated pulpal pressure, dentin of healthy third molars were abraded and acid etched for 15s, then randomly divided into 4 groups: negative control group; Arg-CaCO group (1min); 2.5% Sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP) group (3min); S-A group, 2.
Background: Presently, several classification methods are based on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but its clinical application has not yet been testified in Asian populations.
Methods: Twenty-five DLBCL patients were subjected to second-generation gene sequencing (NGS), and retrospective analysis of clinical features of the patients was to explore genotyping and survival prognosis biomarkers.
Results: The prevalent mutant genes in DLBCL patients cover myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) (40%), TP53 (32%), B-cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) (28%), PIM1 (28%), and CREB-binding protein (CREBBP) (24%) in this study.
Unlabelled: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Studies have shown that esophageal carcinoma related gene 4 (ECRG4) is hypermethylated and significantly downregulated in NPC tissues. However, the role of ECRG4 in NPC, and in particular the underlying molecular mechanism, is largely unclear.

In addition to the accumulation of fatigue, brain fatigue has become one of the important factors that harm our mental health. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore the practical and accurate brain fatigue detection method, especially for quantitative brain fatigue evaluation.

Here, we report a 57-year-old male patient with stage IV small cell lung cancer (SCLC) transformation during targeted therapy. Chest computerized tomography (CT), hematoxylin and eosin histological examination, immunohistochemistry, allele refractory mutation system-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis of point mutations, and next-generation sequencing were performed for diagnosis and therapeutic efficacy evaluation.
