Objective: This study analyzed the prognosis of patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) after loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) and elucidated the predictive value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and margin condition in relation to prognostic recurrence.

Methods: A total of 209 patients were included, with 46 cases in the recurrence/residual group, 156 cases in the no recurrence/residual group, and 7 cases lost to follow-up. General information, past history and comorbid underlying diseases, laboratory tests, and other relevant clinical information were compared between the two groups. The ROC curves were plotted to assess the diagnostic values of NLR, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocytes. Log-rank test was conducted to plot the Kaplan Meier curves to assess the occurrence of recurrence/residual. Risk factors for the occurrence of recurrence/residual in patients during follow-up were analyzed.

Results: Patients with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection, positive margins, and higher PLR and NLR had a higher risk of recurrence/residual at follow-up. HR-HPV infection, positive margins, and higher levels of PLR and NLR showed significant hazard ratios. High NLR, positive margins, and HR-HPV infection resulted in poor prognosis and the occurrence of recurrence or residual.

Conclusion: NLR levels and positive margins may be markers for predicting HSIL recurrence/residual lesions after LEEP.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the risk of left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), which can progress to heart failure if undetected. Echocardiography, a non-invasive and cost-effective imaging tool, provides real-time assessment of left ventricular (LV) function and enables early detection of myocardial dysfunction using advanced techniques such as tissue Doppler imaging and strain analysis. Diabetic patients are particularly prone to LVD due to chronic hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and systemic inflammation, leading to myocardial fibrosis, microvascular dysfunction, and oxidative stress.

Context: Some studies suggests that mind-body therapies may be helpful for people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) for symptom management. PwMS have reported benefits from Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE); however, only limited research exists on the potential benefits of TRE.

Objective: The study intended to determine whether an eight-week intervention of Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE), a mind-body therapy, could primarily reduce fatigue and secondarily decrease other MS-related symptoms and to explore new, experimental outcome measures-sleep, hand motor function, gait function, cognitive function, or mood-for use in future research on TRE for PwMS.

Introduction: Although osteosarcoma represents the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children, they comprise only 0.2% of all cancers. Osteosarcoma frequently involves long bones; however, 8% of osteosarcomas involve the skull or mandible.

Background: An increasing number of studies to date have found preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features valuable in predicting the prognosis of rectal cancer (RC). However, research is still lacking on the correlation between preoperative MRI features and the risk of recurrence after radical resection of RC, urgently necessitating further in-depth exploration.

Aim: To investigate the correlation between preoperative MRI parameters and the risk of recurrence after radical resection of RC to provide an effective tool for predicting postoperative recurrence.
