Background: Neovascularization is an important factor causing radiotherapy resistance, tumor growth, and metastasis. It may provides a new direction for treatment of cervical cancer.

Objective And Methods: The main objective is to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of antiangiogenic therapy combined with CCRT in the treatment of cervical cancer. We searched major Chinese and English databases to collect relevant studies from the database establishment up to April 2022. The experimental group of the studies included used CCRT combined with anti-angiogenic therapy, while another used only CCRT. We used the ' Collaboration's tool' to assess risk of bias and RevMan 5.4 to conduct analysis.

Results: Twelve studies with 793 patients were included. Use clinical efficiency and adverse reactions as effect indicators. It showed that the combination can improve the ORR (OR = 3.52, < 0.00001), CR(OR = 2.46, < 0.00001), DCR (OR = 2.64, = 0.005), and OS(HR = 0.56, = 0.03). But it increases the risk of neutropenia (OR = 1.86, = 0.004) and hypertension (OR = 5.57, = 0.003).

Conclusions: Combined therapy can improve the clinical efficacy of cervical cancer, but the safety needs to be considered.

Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.

Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound vesicles that are shed or secreted from the cell membrane and enveloped by a lipid bilayer. They possess stability, low immunogenicity, and non-cytotoxicity, exhibiting extensive prospects in regenerative medicine (RM). However, natural EVs pose challenges, such as insufficient targeting capabilities, potential biosafety concerns, and limited acquisition pathways.

Background: To date, there remains a paucity of comparative investigations pertaining to preoperative immunochemotherapy and conventional chemotherapy in the context of limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) patients. This study conducted a comprehensive comparative assessment concerning the safety and efficacy profiles of preoperative immunochemotherapy and chemotherapy in individuals diagnosed with stage I-IIIB SCLC.

Methods: This investigation collected 53 consecutive patients diagnosed with LS-SCLC spanning stage I to IIIB who underwent preoperative immunochemotherapy or conventional chemotherapy at our hospital from January 2019 to July 2021.
