Objective: This study aimed to determine the fear of cancer recurrence levels and coping orientation of breast cancer survivors.
Methods: This descriptive exploratory study was conducted using a web-based online survey. This article is written using the STROBE checklist. The study was completed with 204 women participants. Data were collected using the 'Demographic and Clinical Information Form', 'Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory (FCRI)' and 'Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced Inventory-Revised (COPE-R)'.
Results: FCRI total score average within the scope of the study was calculated as 42.00 ± 18.88. Women's COPE-R total score average is 80.62 ± 13.20. There was a positive correlation between FCRI total score and COPE-R (r = 0.183, p = 0.009). According to the results of multiple linear regression analysis, age, education level, CAM usage, getting psychological support and COPE-R subscales (accommodation, avoidance, self-punishment) were associated with FCRI total score.
Conclusions: The fear of cancer recurrence experienced by breast cancer survivors was associated with their coping orientation. Determining the fear of cancer recurrence level and coping orientation of breast cancer survivors by healthcare professionals will guide the reduction of women's fear of cancer recurrence and further the development of adaptive coping orientation.

Whole exome sequencing-based homologous recombination deficiency test for epithelial ovarian cancer.

Department of Medical Genetics, National Taiwan University Hospital, 19F, No. 8, Chung-Shan South Road, Taipei City, Taiwan.
Background: The homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) test is an important tool for identifying patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) benefit from the treatment with poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi). Using whole exome sequencing (WES)-based platform can provide information of gene mutations and HRD score; however, the clinical value of WES-based HRD test was less validated in EOC.
Methods: We enrolled 40 patients with EOC in the training cohort and 23 in the validation cohort.

Background: PARP inhibitors (PARPis) have shown promising effectiveness for ovarian cancer. This network meta-analysis (PROSPERO registration number CRD42024503390) comprehensively evaluated the effectiveness and safety of PARPis in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (PSROC).
Methods: Articles published before January 6, 2024 were obtained from electronic databases.

Background: Circular (circ)RNAs have emerged as crucial contributors to cancer progression. Nonetheless, the expression regulation, biological functions, and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in mediating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression remain insufficiently elucidated.
Methods: We identified circUCK2(2,3) through circRNA sequencing, RT-PCR, and Sanger sequencing.

GATA2 germline mutations lead to a syndrome characterized by immunodeficiency, vascular disorders and myeloid malignancies. To elucidate how these mutations affect hematopoietic homeostasis, we created a knock-in mouse model expressing the recurrent Gata2 R396Q missense mutation. Employing molecular and functional approaches, we investigated the mutation's impact on hematopoiesis, revealing significant alterations in the hematopoietic stem and progenitor (HSPC) compartment in young age.

Background And Aim: Endoscopic biliary drainage with placement of a self-expanding metal stent (SEMS) is the preferred palliative treatment of malignant biliary obstruction. Recent advances in the treatment have prolonged survival, thus, increasing the chance of recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) after SEMS placement. The aim of this study was to compare different endoscopic approaches in patients with a SEMS and RBO, regarding clinical success and time to RBO.
