Article Abstract
The feasibility of a short-term, three-dimensional (3D) culture-based drug sensitivity test (DST) for surgically resected malignant bone tumors, including osteosarcoma (OS), was evaluated utilizing two OS cell line (KCS8 or KCS9)-derived xenograft (CDX) models. Twenty-three (KCS8) or 39 (KCS9) of 60 tested drugs were likely effective in OS cells derived from a cell line before xenografting. Fewer drugs (19: KCS8, 26: KCS9) were selected as effective drugs in cells derived from a CDX tumor, although the drug sensitivities of 60 drugs significantly correlated between both types of samples. The drug sensitivity of a CDX tumor was not significantly altered after the depletion of non-tumorous components in the sample. In a surgically resected metastatic tumor obtained from a patient with OS, for whom a cancer genome profiling test detected a pathogenic PIK3CA mutation, DST identified mTOR and AKT inhibitors as effective drugs. Of two CDX and six clinical samples of OS and Ewing's sarcoma, DST identified proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib, carfilzomib) and CEP-701 as potentially effective drugs in common. This unique method of in vitro drug testing using 3D-cell cultures is feasible in surgically resected tissues of metastatic malignant bone tumors.

Many trials are designed to collect outcomes at or around pre-specified times after randomization. If there is variability in the times when participants are actually assessed, this can pose a challenge to learning the effect of treatment, since not all participants have outcome assessments at the times of interest. Furthermore, observed outcome values may not be representative of all participants' outcomes at a given time.

Objectives: To explore the effect and the probable mechanisms of JLD in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) - associated cognitive impairment (TDACI).
Methods: The effect of JLD in combating TDACI was assessed in T2DM model mice by conducting Morris water maze (MWM) behaviour testing. Active components and their putative targets, as well as TDACI-related targets, were collected from public databases.

Drug checking services (DCS) are entities that allow recreational drug users to have street drug samples analyzed. Diverse analytical methods are applied for DCS, ranging from test strips to mass spectrometry (MS). This work evaluates the performance and utility of common methodologies used for DCS operating with off-site drug testing, while additionally assessing the potential of gas chromatography coupled to vapor phase infrared spectroscopy (GC-IR).

Aim: The prognostic factors and a nomogram applicable to breast cancer (BC) patients with bone metastasis (BM) who received first-line chemotherapy have not been extensively studied. This study aimed to identify prognostic factors and construct a prognostic nomogram to predict overall survival (OS) in this population.
Methods: Data for BC patients with BM undergoing first-line chemotherapy were retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2010 to 2016.

Background: The substance use crisis continues to progress. Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) are prescribed to reduce opioid use and related harms; however, many individuals continue to use substances while on treatment. The objective of this study was to describe the temporal and demographic trends of the agreement between self-reported and urine tested substances.
