Uterine clear cell carcinoma (UCC) is an aggressive variant of endometrial cancer. Comprehensive surgical staging is strongly recommended for these patients as an upstaging to Stage 3-4 occur in 35-50% of patients. Stage 1A (no myometrial invasion) according to FIGO 1988 staging system are seen very rarely in patients. In most of the studies, regarding adjuvant treatment, clear cell carcinoma were all evaluated with papillary serous carcinoma (PSC). Studies on clear cell histology are low in number and also a limited number of patients were included. Proportion of patients with complete surgical staging, number of lymph nodes excised, and rate of omentectomy were all heterogenous and were not presented uniformly in studies. There is no concensus regarding adjuvant treatment for Stage 1A patients. Some authors suggest only close observation. Vaginal brachytherapy is also strongly recommended in some studies of this review. Multi-institutional studies with homogenous patient characteristics with homogeneous surgery is warranted.

Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin malignancy, accounting for approximately 80% of all non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs). Ultraviolet (UV) exposure is a significant risk factor for BCC development, which typically occurs in sun-exposed areas. BCC arising in non-sun-exposed regions, such as the nipple-areola complex (NAC), is exceedingly rare, with fewer than 100 cases reported globally.

Recently, there has been growing interest in knowing the best hygrometry level during high-flow nasal oxygen and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and its potential influence on the outcome. Various studies have shown that breathing cold and dry air results in excessive water loss by nasal mucosa, reduced mucociliary clearance, increased airway resistance, reduced epithelial cell function, increased inflammation, sloughing of tracheal epithelium, and submucosal inflammation. With the Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic, using high-flow nasal oxygen with a heated humidifier has become an emerging form of non-invasive support among clinicians.

Aim: Tissue clearance is a rapidly evolving technology that allows for the three-dimensional imaging of intact biological tissues. Preexisting tissue-clearing techniques, such as Passive Clarity Technique (PACT) and Clear Unobstructed Brain Imaging Cocktails and Computational Analysis (CUBIC), clear tissues adequately but have distinct disadvantages, such as taking extensive time to clear tissues and degradation of endogenous tissue fluorescence. We developed a new tissue-clearing technique combining PACT and CUBIC protocols to map the neural lineages expressing the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) receptor.

Spheroid culture systems have been extensively used to model the three-dimensional (3D) behavior of cells in vitro. Traditionally, spheroids consist of a single cell type, limiting their ability to fully recapitulate the complex inter-cellular interactions observed in vivo. Here we describe a protocol for generating cocultured spheroids composed of two distinct cell types, embedded within a 3D extracellular matrix (ECM) to better study cellular interactions.
