Squamous cell carcinoma associated with chronic osteomyelitis is rare. However, it must be suspected in patients with modification of common local symptoms. Delayed diagnosis can be fatal. Repeated biopsies can greatly help physicians who treat patients. We report the case of a 47-year-old patient diagnosed with carcinomatous degeneration associated with chronic osteomyelitis fistulized to the skin. Amputation was performed.

Tumor-Educated Platelets lncRNA-STARD4-AS1 and ELOA-AS1 as Potential Novel Biomarkers for the Early Diagnosis of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Cancer Manag Res

Department of Clinical Laboratory, The People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Nanning, Guangxi, 530021, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: (Tumor-educated platelets) TEPs have emerged as active players in all steps of tumorigenesis, confrontation of platelets with tumor cells via transfer of tumor-associated biomolecules and results in the sequestration of such biomolecules. The current study was aimed to examine whether TEPs lncRNA-STARD4-AS1 and ELOA-AS1 might be potential biomarkers for NSCLC.
Materials And Methods: TEPs were obtained by low-speed centrifugation.
The Red Cell Distribution Width to Albumin Ratio: A Novel Prognostic Indicator in Hepatitis B Virus-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Central Laboratory, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, Fuzhou, Fujian, 350001, China.
The prognostic significance of the red blood cell distribution width to albumin ratio (RAR) spans various diseases, yet its utility as a biomarker for hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC) remains unclear. We retrospectively studied 1,413 patients with HBV-HCC. Receiver operating characteristic curves identified optimal RAR cut-offs, stratifying patients into H-RAR and L-RAR groups.

While NUSAP1's association with various tumors is established, its predictive value for prognosis and immunotherapy in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains unconfirmed. We analyzed Nucleolar Spindle-Associated Protein 1 (NUSAP1) gene expression in TCGA and GTEx datasets and validated it in clinicopathological tissues using qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Additionally, we investigated NUSAP1's relationship with patient prognosis across TCGA and five GEO cohorts.

Carcinogenesis often involves significant alterations in the cancer genome, marked by large structural variants (SVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) that are difficult to capture with short-read sequencing. Traditionally, cytogenetic techniques are applied to detect such aberrations, but they are limited in resolution and do not cover features smaller than several hundred kilobases. Optical genome mapping (OGM) and nanopore sequencing [Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT)] bridge this resolution gap and offer enhanced performance for cytogenetic applications.
