Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of the preoperative lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) for postoperative adverse events in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).
Methods: A retrospective study of the clinical data collected in our hospital between March 2015 and January 2024 was performed on 290 patients diagnosed with ATAAD who underwent surgical treatment and met the inclusion criteria for patient selection. The included patients were divided into a low LMR group (<1.

Background: Dual regimen dolutegravir/lamivudine (DOL/3TC) showed potent efficacy and favourable safety in both antiretroviral therapy-naïve and -experienced patients, but data from real life about naive people with high-level viremia are still lacking.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of people living with HIV (PLWH) who were naive to antiretroviral therapy, had baseline HIV-1 RNA ranging from 100000 to 500000 copies/mL, and initated DOL/3TC. Virological efficacy and changes in immunological parameters after 12 months of treatment were evaluated and compared with highly viremic PLWH who started a triple antiretroviral combination.

The association between primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and microscopic colitis (MC) has been explored in limited studies, suggesting potential shared pathophysiological mechanisms. This systematic review aimed to investigate this relationship by analyzing studies identified through comprehensive searches in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Two studies met the inclusion criteria: a case series of 12 patients and a case report, collectively analyzing 13 cases.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of C-reactive protein to albumin (CRP/Alb) ratio in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with transcatheter intra-arterial therapy combined with molecular targeted agents (MTAs) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors.
Methods: Medical records of 271 consecutive patients with HCC receiving this combination therapy in China between 2019 and 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were identified using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses.

Background: Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) is a personalized immunotherapy. The efficacy of TIL-ACT has been demonstrated prospectively in patients with advanced melanoma but is not limited to melanoma patients. Many patients are refractory to TIL-ACT, however, or their cancer becomes resistant.
