This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of nemolizumab in treating prurigo nodularis through a systematic review of randomized controlled trials. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, identifying relevant studies until January 5th 2025. Four randomized controlled trials involving 859 participants were included in the final analysis.

Background: Hamartomas of the floor of the fourth ventricle (HFFVs) are rare lesions that cause a variety of symptoms, including hemifacial spasm (HFS). When symptomatic, these deep-seated lesions are traditionally treated via open surgical approaches. The authors describe successful laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) of an HFFV causing intractable HFS.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the 4-hook needle localization for pulmonary ground glass nodules (GGNs).
Methods: From November 1, 2021, to May 31, 2024, 194 patients were diagnosed with one or more GGNs by computed tomography (CT) scan and underwent preoperative CT-guided 4-hook needle localization followed by video-assisted thoracoscope surgery (VATS) wedge resection, segmentectomy or lobectomy. There were 226 nodules in all patients.

Background: The clinical success of the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) has revolutionized cancer treatment. However, the full potential of PD-1 blockade therapy remains unrealized, as response rates are still low across many cancer types. Interleukin-2 (IL-2)-based immunotherapies hold promise, as they can stimulate robust T cell expansion and enhance effector function - activities that could synergize potently with PD-1 blockade.
