Spiradenoma is a rare benign skin adnexal tumor with unknown incidence and prevalence, typically affecting young to middle-aged adults without a sexual predilection. A 59-year-old woman presented with a palpable lesion in the suprapubic region that had been there for 20 years and had become enlarged over the past 2 months. Physical examination revealed a firm, non-tender, subcutaneous mass, approximately 2 cm in size, in the right pubic region. Ultrasound revealed a hypoechoic, heterogeneous lesion with a well-defined border, measuring 2.37 × 0.94 × 1.67 cm, without hypervascularity. Therefore, the patient underwent excision of the subcutaneous tumor. The pathology report confirmed the diagnosis of spiradenoma of the pubis. Histochemistry showed that the inner luminal cells were positive for CK7, and the outer basaloid cells were positive for p63. CD56 and CD117 were focally positive. With an accurate diagnosis and appropriate surgical excision, the prognosis for spiradenoma is generally excellent. However, a long-term follow-up is advisable.

Background/aims: Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSC) are multipotent adult cells commonly used in regenerative medicine as advanced therapy medicinal products. The expansion of these cells in xeno-free supplements is highly encouraged by regulatory agencies due to safety concerns. However, the number of supplements with robust performance and consistency for hMSC expansion are limited.

Purpose: Prior sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) thresholds for diagnosing male infertility and predicting assisted reproduction technology (ART) outcomes fluctuated between 15 and 30%, with no agreed standard. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the sperm DFI on early embryonic development during ART treatments and establish appropriate DFI cut-off values.

Methods: Retrospectively analyzed 913 couple's ART cycles from 2021 to 2022, encompassing 1,476 IVF and 295 ICSI cycles, following strict criteria.

Background: Ovarian cancers (OC) and cervical cancers (CC) have poor survival rates. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play a pivotal role in prognosis, but shared immune mechanisms remain elusive.

Methods: We integrated single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) to explore immune regulation in OC and CC, focusing on the PI3K/AKT pathway and FLT3 as key modulators.

Department of Key Laboratory of Ningxia Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine, Institute of Medical Sciences, Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, Ningxia, 750004, China.

Background: In this study, we aimed to explore the association between baseline and early changes in the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the 30-day mortality rate in patients having anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5)-positive dermatomyositis with interstitial lung disease (DM-ILD).

Methods: Overall, 263 patients with anti-MDA5 DM-ILD from four centers in China were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the impact of baseline NLR on the 30-day mortality rate in patients with anti-MDA5-positive DM-ILD.
