Postradiation disturbances in functioning of Ca(2+)- and cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase systems are established. Kinetic index of different protein kinases of spleen lymphocytes under irradiation with doses of 0.5 and 1 Gy are analysed using return-cards-construction and Lyapunov's-coefficient-determination methods. It is shown that determined disturbances can be considered as a part of general unspecific adaptational reaction of lymphocytes to irradiation.

Importance: Integration of molecular biomarker information into systemic therapy has become standard practice in breast cancer care. However, its implementation in guiding radiotherapy (RT) is slower. Although postoperative RT is recommended for most patients after breast-conserving surgery and, depending on risk factors, following mastectomy, emerging evidence has indicated that patients with low scores on gene expression signatures or selected clinical-pathological features may have very low local recurrence rates.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy combined with programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitor (sintilimab) followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) plus sintilimab, and subsequent maintenance with sintilimab (IC-ICCRT-IO) for patients with unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in a retrospective study.
Methods: Data from patients with histologically confirmed, locally advanced, inoperable ESCC who received IC-ICCRT-IO were retrospectively analyzed. Treatment effects were evaluated after 2 cycles of induction therapy and after CCRT by contrast-enhanced CT scans and esophagograms, followed by subsequent evaluations every 3 months post-treatment.

During out-of-area military operations, the presence of carcinogenic and/or genotoxic agents has been reported, posing potential health risks to deployed soldiers. Military working dogs (MWDs), trained to detect explosives in the same environments as soldiers, could also serve as sentinel animals, providing valuable information on exposure to hazardous agents. These dogs can help identify environmental and potential adverse effects on their health and that of their handlers, possibly before relevant pathologies manifest.

Background: Esophageal carcinoma (EC) presents a significant public health issue in China, with its prognosis impacted by myriad factors. The creation of a reliable prognostic model for the overall survival (OS) of EC patients promises to greatly advance the customization of treatment approaches.
Aim: To create a more systematic and practical model that incorporates clinically significant indicators to support decision-making in clinical settings.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an inflammation-associated tumor with a dismal prognosis. Immunotherapy has become an important treatment strategy for HCC, as immunity is closely related to inflammation in the tumor microenvironment. Inflammation regulates the expression of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and affects immunotherapy efficacy.
