Introduction: Systemic inflammatory and nutritional markers are associated with the prognosis of various cancers. However, their association with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to identify systemic inflammatory and nutritional markers associated with the postoperative prognosis of patients with SNSCC and to clarify the clinical value of these markers.

Materials And Methods: Data from 129 patients with SNSCC were included. The optimal prognostic systemic inflammatory and nutritional markers were identified using the area under the curve. The prognostic value was evaluated using COX regression and subgroup analyses; a nomogram was built based on these data.

Results: The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) and systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) had higher prognostic values than the other indices; their cut-off values were 27.80 and 791.35, respectively. The nomogram included tumor stage, ALI, and tumor primary site; the calibration and decision curves indicated that the model had good clinical value.

Conclusion: The ALI and SII have potential prognostic value for postoperative patients with SNSCC. The nomogram constructed in this study could be used as a tool to assist physicians in making clinical decisions.

Level Of Evidence: 4.

In the present case, a 66-year-old woman presented to the Specialty Hospital (Amman, Jordan) with recurrent post-menopausal bleeding. A pelvic ultrasound scan showed an abnormal endometrial thickness of 8 mm and no adnexal masses. An endometrial biopsy revealed abundant foamy histiocyte infiltration features suggestive of xanthogranulomatous endometritis.

Background: Kyphoplasty (KP) is a well-established procedure with a low complication risk, however, the procedure's safety in patients with comorbidities and in the setting of systemic infection remains uncertain with no clear guidelines. We present a unique case of KP in the setting of recurrent septicemia, which required subsequent salvage vertebrectomy.

In the past decade, the use of immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) has increased across many malignancies, including metastatic renal cell carcinoma as an option for frontline and subsequent lines of therapy. Despite the many therapeutic benefits of ICT, its use is complicated by the potential risk of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). One rare but potentially life-threatening irAE is hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH).

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) offers a promising avenue for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, optimizing immune responses remains a formidable challenge. This study presents the design of RBCm@Pt-CoNi layered double hydroxide (RmPLH), an innovative sonosensitizer for sonodynamic therapy (SDT), aimed at enhancing the efficacy of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors by inducing robust ICD responses.
