Background: Cancer screening is a crucial component in the fight to reduce cancer incidence and mortality. Currently, the WHO recommends highly effective cancer screening programs, including screening for cervical cancer (CC), breast cancer (BC), and colorectal cancer (CRC). Despite the implementation of a cancer screening program since 2014, an evaluation of the effectiveness of BC, CC, and CRC screening in the Kazakhstan has not yet been conducted.

Cavitary sarcoidosis is a rare form and represents non-caseating granulomatous diseases of the lungs exhibiting a narrow range of differential diagnoses. The peculiarity of this case lies in the difficulty of distinguishing atypical manifestations of pulmonary sarcoidosis, such as cystic lesions, from cavernous tuberculosis. Both possess similar clinical and radiological features.

Interleukin (IL)-6 and other cytokines play a major role in mediating CD inflammatory manifestations. Although the local microenvironment seems to be among the major sources of hypercytokinemia, the precise cellular origin of IL-6 production in CD is still debated.

Over the past years, plant hypoxia research has produced a considerable number of new resources to monitor low oxygen responses in model species, mainly Arabidopsis thaliana. Climate change urges the development of effective genetic strategies aimed at improving plant resilience during flooding events. This need pushes forward the search for optimized tools that can reveal the actual oxygen available to plant cells, in different organs or under various conditions, and elucidate the mechanisms underlying plant hypoxic responses, complementing the existing transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolic analysis methods.

Background: Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is a scarring hair loss condition primarily affecting the frontotemporal hairline and often leading to partial or complete loss of eyebrows in a significant number of cases. It is characterized by slow progression and typically shows poor response to available treatments. Diagnosis relies on clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological assessments, with specific criteria proposed by Vañó-Galván et al.
