Purpose Of The Study: The preclinical study aimed to compare the healing of segmental bone defects treated with biodegradable hyaluronic acid and tricalcium phosphate-based hydrogel with the established autologous spongioplasty. Another aim was to evaluate the hydrogel as a scaffold for osteoinductive growth factor of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and stem cells.
Material And Methods: The study was conducted in an in vivo animal model.

Background: The prognostic value of tumor regression grade (TRG) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer is inconsistent in the literature. Both TRG and post-therapy lymph node (ypN) status could reflect the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy. Here, we explored whether TRG combined with ypN status could be a prognostic factor for MRI-based lymph node-positive (cN+) rectal cancer following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Recently, attention has increasingly centered on non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with immune checkpoint inhibitors application. Numerous clinical studies have underscored the potential of immunotherapy in treating resectable NSCLC, highlighting its role in improving patient outcomes. However, despite these promising results, there is ongoing debate regarding the efficacy of immunological combination therapy strategies, the prevalence of treatment-related side effects, the identification of predictive biomarkers, and various other challenges within the neoadjuvant context.

Background And Objective: Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) are the most common neoplasm of the prevascular mediastinal compartment and are characterized by their rarity and variable clinical presentation. The present study aimed to explore the current management of patients with TET with a special focus on immunotherapy for advanced disease.
Methods: Relevant studies published between 1981 and 2024 were searched in PubMed using search terms "Thymoma", "Thymic cancer", "Myasthenia gravis", "Radiation therapy", "Surgery", and "Immunotherapy".

Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) are rare neoplasms that include thymomas, thymic carcinomas (TCs), and thymic neuroendocrine neoplasms (TNENs). These three tumor categories differ in aggressiveness, the incidence of recurrence after resection, the pattern of recurrence, and survival outcomes. Owing to the tumor's rarity, randomized trials have not been performed in the initial treatment setting.
