Aim: To characterize the differences of dynamic changes for absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) among esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) with or without pembrolizumab, as well as to investigate the clinical and lymphocyte-related organs dosimetric parameters that would impact ALC nadir during nCRT.
Materials And Methods: A total of 216 ESCC patients who received nCRT (with pembrolizumab 144; without pembrolizumab: 72) were identified from a prospective cohort. Weekly and 1-month post-nCRT ALC were identified.

Objective: To test whether race/ethnicity affects stage or grade distribution at upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) diagnosis.
Methods: Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database 2004-2020, UTUC patients were identified. Multivariable logistic regression models tested for the association between race/ethnicity and stage as well as grade at diagnosis according to renal pelvis vs.

Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, 242 Guangji Road, Gusu District, Suzhou, 215000, China.
Purpose: To describe the downsizing post-closure technique for access hemostasis during emergency endovascular repair (EVAR) in ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (RAAA).
Materials And Methods: A cohort of eight patients underwent emergency EVAR through 16 femoral access sites for infrarenal RAAA. The downsizing post-closure technique, which involves a reduction in the size of the large-bore access by advancing a 10F sheath, was consistently applied.

Exceptional points (EPs) have been extensively explored in mechanical, acoustic, plasmonic, and photonic systems. However, little is known about the role of EPs in tailoring the dynamic tunability of optical devices. A specific type of EPs known as chiral EPs has recently attracted much attention for controlling the flow of light and for building sensors with better responsivity.

Substituting the molecular metal complexes used in the industrial olefin hydroformylation process is of great significance in fundamental research and practical application. One of the major difficulties in replacing the classic molecular metal catalysts with supported metal catalysts is the low chemoselectivity and regioselectivity of the supported metal catalysts because of the lack of a well-defined coordination environment of the metal active sites. In this work, we have systematically studied the influences of key factors (crystallinity, alkali promoters, etc.
