The prognostic value of changes in Ki67 following neoadjuvant chemotherapy in residual triple-negative breast cancer: a Swedish nationwide registry-based study.
Breast Cancer Res Treat
January 2025
Department of Oncology, Institute of Clinical Sciences, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how changes in the Ki67 biomarker before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) affect survival in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
- Among 1,777 TNBC patients analyzed, most showed a decrease in tumor size and Ki67 levels after NACT, though many had no change or experienced treatment discontinuation.
- Patients with unchanged Ki67 had significantly worse overall and disease-specific survival compared to those with decreased Ki67, emphasizing the need for personalized treatment strategies based on ongoing monitoring of this biomarker.
Preliminary Evidence for Perturbation-Based tACS-EEG Biomarkers of Gamma Activity in Alzheimer's Disease.
Int J Geriatr Psychiatry

Precision Neuroscience & Neuromodulation Program, Gordon Center for Medical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by impaired inhibitory circuitry and GABAergic dysfunction, which is associated with reduced fast brain oscillations in the gamma band (γ, 30-90 Hz) in several animal models. Investigating such activity in human patients could lead to the identification of novel biomarkers of diagnostic and prognostic value. The current study aimed to test a multimodal "Perturbation-based" transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation-Electroencephalography (tACS)-EEG protocol to detect how responses to tACS in AD patients correlate with patients' clinical phenotype.

BMC Neurol
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100053, China.
Background: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare yet significant neurological disorder with high mortality. Understanding its evolving characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes, particularly in Chinese patients after the COVID-19 pandemic, is critical for developing effective preventive and therapeutic strategies.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 471 CVST cases from Xuanwu Hospital, comparing data before (2013-2017, n = 243) and after (2021-2023, n = 228) the COVID-19 pandemic.
