We describe the first known case of congenital lymphoedema associated with selective deficit of naïve CD4+ T-lymphocytes. A high proportion of naïve CD4+ T-lymphocytes was found in the ascitic fluid, supporting the hypothesis of extra-vascular sequestration of these cells into lymphoedematous tissue.

Department of Oncology, Zhangjiagang First People's Hospital, Suzhou 215600, Jiangsu Province, China.
Background: Owing to the absence of specific symptoms in early-stage gastric cancer, most patients are diagnosed at intermediate or advanced stages. As a result, treatment often shifts from surgery to other therapies, with chemotherapy and targeted therapies being the primary options for advanced gastric cancer treatment.
Aim: To investigate both treatment efficacy and immune modulation.
Introduction: Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA) has been adopted for cervical cancer screening in Kenya and other Low-Middle Income Countries despite providing suboptimal results among HIV-infected women. It is mostly performed by nurses in health centers. Innovative ways of improving the performance of VIA in HIV-infected women are desired.

Background: Numerous studies have demonstrated that immune cell infiltration is a significant predictor in the prognosis of those with breast cancer. This study aimed to develop a prognostic model for undifferentiated breast cancer using immune-related markers.
Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and prognostic factors were identified from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Department of Biomedical Engineering, School of Life Sciences, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, China.
Background: The persistently high mortality and morbidity rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain a global concern. Notably, the disruptions in mitochondrial cholesterol metabolism (MCM) play a pivotal role in the progression and development of HCC, underscoring the significance of this metabolic pathway in the disease's etiology. The purpose of this research was to investigate genes associated with MCM and develop a model for predicting the prognostic features of patients with HCC.

Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a pivotal role in the development, prognosis, and treatment of breast cancer. This study aimed to develop a Treg-associated gene signature that contributes to predict prognosis and therapy benefits in breast cancer.
Methods: Treg-associated genes were screened based on single-cell RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) in TISCH2 database and the bulk RNA-seq in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.
