Oral carcinoma is a common disease that poses challenges in treatment management, especially for advanced cases. Adjuvant therapies, such as radiation and chemoradiation therapy, are typically used for advanced oral cancer patients. However, there is uncertainty regarding the use of adjuvant therapy for early-stage patients with certain soft histological parameters. The UICC manual of clinical oncology suggests that adjuvant therapy for such parameters is desirable but not essential. These parameters include perineural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, single nodal positivity, and patterns of invasion, which complicate the decision-making process for including adjuvant therapy. This review aims to provide evidence-based literature for effectively managing this patient group and developing treatment protocols based on current evidence.

To assess whether metabolic syndrome can be used as a reference index to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer (BC). Seventy cases of female BC patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment and surgical treatment at the Glandular Surgery Department of Hebei Provincial People's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected, and clinical data such as puncture pathology were recorded. The clinical data were analyzed by 1-way analysis using the χ2 test, and further multifactorial logistic regression analysis was performed for statistically significant differences.

Background: Chronic nonhealing neuropathic foot ulcers affect approximately 15% to 30% of patients with diabetes mellitus and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Although current strategies to address these chronic wounds include a multifactorial approach, clinical outcomes remain poor and warrant improvement. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), derived from autologous or allogeneic blood, is an emerging regenerative product that aims to serve as an adjuvant to standard diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) treatment.
