Although patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) generally have a poor prognosis and there are currently no effective treatment options, survival and response to therapy vary between patients. Genomic and transcriptomic profiles of ATC have been reported; however, a comprehensive study of the tumor microenvironment (TME) of ATC is still lacking. This study aimed to elucidate the TME characteristics associated with ATC and their prognostic implications.

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are a protective prognostic factor in several solid tumors and predict response to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. The prognostic impact of TILs in medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is poorly understood. In this retrospective cohort study, we assessed the TILs profile of primary MTC tumors using the International TILs Working Group system and correlated this with clinicopathological prognostic variables, including the International Medullary Thyroid Cancer Grading System (IMTCGS) grade and survival outcomes.

Background: Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, and its prognostication and treatment remains challenging. The fast growth of various cancer cells requires reprogramming of its energy metabolism using aerobic glycolysis as a major energy source. However, the prognostic and therapeutic value of glycolysis-related genes in BCa remains to be determined.

Purpose The infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) has the lowest pain threshold among all knee joint components and causes anterior knee pain after knee arthroplasty. It has been reported that selective muscle atrophy of the vastus medialis (VM) and fibrosis of the IFP may develop following knee joint surgery. Ultrasound enables visualization of IFP deformation (A1) from within the joint to the proximal area in response to muscle contraction, and this may be helpful in developing preventive and therapeutic strategies for IFP fibrosis.
