Background: Lymph node ratio (LNR), log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS), and the number of postoperative lymph node staging (pN) are prognostic indicators of various cancers. However, the prognostic values of these indicators remain unclear in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC). This study's primary objective was to investigate the predictive value of LNR, LODDS, and pN for advanced HPSCC, and the secondary objective was to compare which of the values had the best predictive value for advanced HPSCC.

Objectives: Cancer-related cachexia affects approximately 50% to 80% of cancer patients and contributes significantly to cancer-related mortality, accounting for 20% of deaths. This multifactorial syndrome is characterized by systemic inflammation, anorexia, and elevated energy expenditure, leading to severe weight loss and muscle wasting. Understanding the underlying mechanisms is critical for developing effective interventions.

Purpose: Male breast cancer is an understudied disease with unique clinicopathological features. This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of the Clinical Treatment Score post-5 years (CTS5) in estimating late recurrence risk in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) male breast cancer patients.
Methods: This retrospective study includes 65,711 ER+ early male (n = 611) and female (n = 65,100) breast cancer patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database diagnosed between 2010 and 2018.

Smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) patients are a heterogeneous group with variable prognosis. A subset of SMM patients have a higher risk of progressing to multiple myeloma (MM) within 2 years. The definition of high-risk patients is not consistent among different risk models, and the combination of various biomarkers and new technologies improves the predictive performance of risk models.

This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with acute leukemia in the plateau. The clinical information of patients diagnosed with acute leukemia from February 2010 to April 2023 at the People's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region was reviewed and collected, including blood cell count, morphology, immunophenotype, cytogenetics, and molecular data. Survival analysis was conducted to analyze the outcome of patients with acute leukemia.
