We herein report a rare case of unresectable liposarcoma that showed a complete response to eribulin. Furthermore, a low expression of phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) on an immunohistological evaluation was observed. This result is consistent with our previous preclinical study that demonstrated the significance of p-AKT signaling for eribulin resistance in multiple subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) cells. This case highlights the potential benefits of eribulin as well as the mechanism underlying resistance to eribulin in patients with unresectable or metastatic STS, especially liposarcoma.

The ongoing challenge of water pollution necessitates innovative approaches to remove organic contaminants from wastewater. In this work, new two-dimensional S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts BiO/CdS and MoS/BiO/CdS that are intended for the effective photocatalytic destruction of 4-nitrophenol, a dangerous organic pollutant, are synthesized and characterized. Utilizing a solvothermal method, successfully generated these ternary nanocomposites, which were characterized through various techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), high resolution transmission electronmicroscopy (HRTEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Telle (BET) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS).

Background And Objectives: There is paucity of studies on long-term remission of autoimmune generalized myasthenia gravis (MG) from Southeast Asia. We report the outcome predictors of generalized MG and also evaluate the influence of high- versus low-dose prednisolone and prednisolone with or without azathioprine (AZA).

Methods: Fifty-seven patients with generalized MG were included, who completed 2 years of follow-up.

Plasma cell disorders represent a spectrum of complex diseases, ranging from benign conditions to malignancies. The monoclonal immunoglobulins produced in these disorders can result in various renal pathologies, which may present as differing degrees of renal insufficiency. In severe instances, patients may necessitate dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Controversy exists regarding whether the spontaneity of altercentric intrusion is impaired in patients with schizophrenia during implicit visual perspective-taking tasks. This study explored the characteristics of spontaneous visual perspective-taking in patients with schizophrenia and the effect of an avatar identity on their perspective-taking. We recruited 65 patients with schizophrenia and 65 healthy participants to complete 4 visual perspective-taking experiments for uncued other-avatar and self-avatar tasks and cued other-avatar and self-avatar tasks.
