[TFE3-rearranged perivascular epithelioid cell tumors: a clinicopathological analysis of eight cases].

To investigate the clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular genetic characteristics of TFE3-rearranged perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa). Eight cases of PEComa with TFE3 rearrangement diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from January 2014 to July 2022 were collected. Three were consultation cases and 5 were collected from our hospital; 7 cases were resection specimens and 1 case was a needle biopsy specimen.

Association between Mean Arterial Pressure during the First 24 Hours and Clinical Outcome in Critically Ill Stroke Patients: An Analysis of the MIMIC-III Database.

Abnormal blood pressure is common in critically ill stroke patients. However, the association between mean arterial pressure (MAP) and mortality of critically ill stroke patients remains unclear. We extracted eligible acute stroke patients from the MIMIC-III database.

Precise medicine of programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 inhibitor immunotherapy combined radiotherapy for inoperable advanced lung cancer: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Programmed cell death-1/programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors are a group of immune checkpoint inhibitors immunotherapy for cancer treatment. These immune checkpoint inhibitors are becoming first-line treatments for several types of cancer. Radiotherapy for cancer is a traditional treatment and the therapeutic effect is not satisfactory due to the side effect of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Safety and Efficacy of the Metabolic Profiling of the BIMRT Utilizing 18F FDG PET-CT.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-FDG-PET/CT) guided intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for patients with peritoneal metastases.

Patients And Methods: A total of 55 patients with peritoneal metastases were treated with 18F-FDG-PET/CT-guided IMRT (BIMRT) from January 2012 to January 2019. They were prescribed with a fraction of the median dose of 2 Gy to a total dose of 50.

Clinical complete regression after local radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy for stage IV rectal cancer: A case report.

Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer worldwide with about 0.8 million new cases annually. Improving patient survival remains a challenge for clinicians.

Cervus and cucumis peptides combined umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells therapy for rheumatoid arthritis.

Cervus and cucumis peptides (Lugua polypeptides, LG) are traditional Chinese medicine, which are active components of polypeptide extracted from Sika deer bone and melon seed, and they contain bone induced polypeptide biological factors. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell, (UC-MSC) have tissue repair multiple effects, anti-inflammatory, and immune regulation function, which become a very promising start in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment. Hence, LG combined UC-MSC can significantly enhance the UC-MSC treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Efficacy and Safety of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: A Prospective Phase I/II Study.

Background: The traditional anti-inflammation disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have limited therapeutic effects in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. We previously reported the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) treatment in RA patients that were observed for up to 8 months after UC-MSC infusion. The aim of this study is to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of UC-MSC along with DMARDs for the treatment of RA.

Radiotherapy combined with cytokine-induced killer cell therapy for liver metastasis from rectal cancer: A case report.

Rationale: Colorectal cancer is the most common type of cancer leading to death; approximately 10% to 25% of rectal cancer patients present with synchronous colorectal liver metastases. However, the management of synchronous colorectal liver metastases is difficult, especially for patients unable to tolerate chemotherapy or surgery. To date, the optimum treatment of colorectal liver metastasis patients remains controversial, and the curative effect is unsatisfactory.

F-FDG-PET/CT-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy for 42 FIGO III/IV ovarian cancer: A retrospective study.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the curative effect of fludeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-FDG-PET/CT)-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for 42 patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage III/IV ovarian cancer. Between January 2012 and December 2015, 42 patients with FIGO stage III/IV ovarian cancer who were treated with F-FDG-PET/CT-guided IMRT at the Department of Radiation Oncology were analyzed. A total of 21 patients who exhibited recurrence following surgery and 11 patients who were unable to tolerate or rejected surgery received 5-10 cycles of chemotherapy only.
