Background: About one-fourth of patients with hemophilia A (HA) develop alloantibodies against factor (F) VIII, as the main treatment challenge. Here, we assessed the relationship between interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), FII and FV polymorphisms and risk of inhibitor formation in patients with severe HA.

Methods: We divided 39 patients with severe HA in two groups of case (n: 19) and control (n: 20). Genotyping was performed by multiplex amplification tetra arms refractory mutation systempolymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).

Results: TNFα rs1800629 G>A polymorphism decreased the risk of inhibitor development in codominant and dominant inheritance pattern. Moreover, TNFα rs1800629 A allele, decrease the risk of inhibitor formation, while IL10 rs1800896 A>G, FV rs6025 G>A, and FII rs1799963 G>A polymorphisms were not associated with risk of inhibitor development.

Conclusion: It seems that TNFα rs1800629 G>A polymorphism decreased the risk of inhibitor formation in Iranian patients with HA.

Background: Alcohol intake is associated with a higher risk of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC), presumably through its confirmed ability to increase sex hormone levels. Whether consuming alcohol within the recommended limit of one serving per day increases sex hormone levels among postmenopausal women taking aromatase inhibitors (AI) to inhibit estrogen production remains unknown. Therefore, we compared sex hormone levels following white wine to levels following white grape juice among ER + BC survivors taking AIs.

Background: Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are prone to developing brain metastases (BMs), particularly those with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. In clinical practice, treatment-naïve EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with asymptomatic BMs tend to choose EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as first-line therapy and defer intracranial radiotherapy (RT). However, the effectiveness of upfront intracranial RT remains unclear.

Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (UCEC) represents a common malignant neoplasm in women, with its prognosis being intricately associated with available therapeutic interventions. In the past few decades, there has been a burgeoning interest in the role of mitochondria within the context of UCEC. Nevertheless, the development and application of prognostic models predicated on mitochondrial-related genes (MRGs) in UCEC remains in the exploratory stages.
