Objective: Fast progression (FP) represents a desperate situation for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. We aimed to develop a predictive framework based on machine learning (ML) methods to identify FP in advanced NSCLC patients using blood test biomarkers.
Methods And Analysis: We extracted data of 1546 atezolizumab-treated patients from four multicentre clinical trials.

Silver (Ag) possesses potent antimicrobial properties and is used as a coating for medical devices. The impact of silver ions released from orthopedic implants on the differentiation and osteoid formation of different osteogenic cells has yet to be systematically studied. In the present study, human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and primary human osteoblasts (hOBs) were exposed to different static Ag concentrations (0, 0.

Bone marrow metastasis (BMM) causes pancytopenia and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), resulting in rapid mortality. The incidence of this disease is likely underestimated, with confirmed BMM occurring at approximately twice the rates expected clinically. The present study describes two detailed cases and includes a literature review of BMM caused by ovarian cancer.

Objective: The expression level of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is the only approved biomarker for predicting response to immunotherapy, yet its efficacy is not always consistent. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) has been associated with tumor aggressiveness and poorer prognosis across various cancer types and may serve as a useful biomarker for monitoring treatment response. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between LDH levels prior to the start of treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and clinical outcomes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Emissions of ethyl acetate (EA) exhaust from industrial sources can cause environmental and health risks. EA can be effectively removed by biological filtration with low operating costs and promising good benefits. This study demonstrated the synergistic effect of using magnetite and pebbles as bio-packing in promoting microbial activity and microbial abundance for EA degradation.
