There has been much controversy regarding the order in which cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) and systemic therapy (ST) are applied for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). We aimed to investigate the role of deferred CN (dCN) in mRCC, particularly in the current era of immunotherapy. A systematic literature search was conducted on PubMed, Embase, and Scopus for studies comparing dCN versus any non-dCN strategy, in any temporal sequence, with the provision of Kaplan-Meier curves for overall survival (OS).

Reduced lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 (LEF1) expression in patients with adenomyosis during the mid-secretory phase leads to impaired endometrial receptivity, affecting embryo implantation. This study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying reduced endometrial receptivity in 25 adenomyosis patients and 25 controls. Functional experiments were conducted using human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) and TERT-immortalized HESCs(T-HESCs), with final validation performed using a mouse model.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most malignant tumors and seriously threatens human health worldwide, and its incidence rate is increasing annually. USP15 is a member of the ubiquitination-specific protease (USP) family, which can regulate protein ubiquitination, thereby affecting their stability, and is dysregulated in many cancers, but its expression and regulatory mechanism in HCC are unclear. The aims of this study were to explore the role and mechanism of USP15 in regulating HCC cell stemness, proliferation, and lenvatinib resistance.

Background: Immortal time is a period of follow-up during which death or the study outcome cannot occur by design. Bias from immortal time has been increasingly recognized in epidemiological studies. However, the fundamental causes and structures of bias from immortal time have not been explained systematically.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the risk of bladder cancer in KTRs and patients on HD.
Methods: This was a nationwide longitudinal cohort study of 66,547 participants from the National Health Insurance Service cohort who started HD for KF or received KT from 2002 to 2020.
