Introduction: Disease recurrence in patients with the early hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast tumor subtype is particularly challenging to manage due to its complex and very heterogeneous biological nature. Namely, due to primary and secondary resistance, one-quarter of patients with early-stage disease will experience disease recurrence. This variability in the timing of recurrence highlights the need to better identify key biomarkers that could predict therapeutic outcomes and guide personalized treatment strategies for these patients.

Introduction: Patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2-) breast cancers have the lowest response to neoadjuvant therapy of all subtypes. The role of neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET) in clinically node-positive (cN+), HR+, HER2- patients is evaluated in this meta-analysis.

Methods: This study was performed between January 2010 and August 2022.

How to Optimize Deimplementation of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy?

Breast J

January 2025

Department of Clinical and Molecular Medicine, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim 7491, Norway.

Background: The omission of sentinel lymph node biopsy in low-risk elderly breast cancer patients has been introduced in several guidelines. Despite evidence to support its safety, this recommendation has not been implemented by many clinicians. We have examined two aspects of this recommendation that may explain why sentinel lymph node biopsy continues to be performed in most of these patients.

Aim: To compare menopausal symptoms between tamoxifen alone and tamoxifen with ovarian function suppression (OFS) over 12 months, identifying related factors.

Methods: This prospective, observational study included 209 premenopausal patients with breast cancer on tamoxifen, recruited from Asan Medical Center, Republic of Korea. We collected demographic and clinical information from the participants' medical records and assessed menopausal symptoms using the Korean Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) at 3-, 6-, and 12-months postdiagnosis.

Platelet-rich plasma effects on in vitro cells derived from pediatric patients with andrological diseases.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Department of Neurosciences, Biomedicine and Movement Sciences, Biochemistry Section, University of Verona, Verona, Italy.

Undescended testis and testicular torsion represent two frequent andrological diseases that affect the pediatric age. Despite these testicular disorders having different causes, they both negatively influence fertility in adulthood mainly due to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which represents the primary molecular damage underlying their long-term effects. The gold standard of treatment for both pathologies is surgery; however, it cannot guarantee an optimal fertility outcome in all clinical cases, underscoring the need to identify effective adjuvant therapies that may target the augmented ROS levels.
