The Prognostic and Risk Factors for Children With High-Risk Mature B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: A Retrospective Multicenter Study.

Backgrounds And Aims: Our previous study (CCCG-BNHL-2015) reported the treatment strategies and outcomes of pediatric B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) in China which showed that children in low-risk groups already have a dramatically favorable prognosis. However, for high-risk groups, the prognosis still needs to be improved. In this study, we aimed to identify the factors influencing prognosis in high-risk groups (stage III and stage IV).

The ketogenic diet modulates tumor-associated neutrophil polarization via the AMOT-YAP/TAZ axis to inhibit colorectal cancer progression.

Despite significant advances in the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), the prognosis for late-stage patients remains poor, highlighting the urgent need for new preventive and therapeutic strategies. Recent studies have focused on the ketogenic diet (KD) and its metabolite, β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), for their tumor-suppressive effects and modulation of inflammatory responses. Using the azoxymethane (AOM) / dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mouse CRC model, we found that the ketogenic diet and BHB inhibit pro-tumor N2-type tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) while promoting the polarization of TANs towards the anti-tumor N1 type.

Prognostic and Immunotherapeutic Role of TACC3 in Pancancer and Its Impact on Proliferation and Docetaxel Resistance in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Introduction: Transforming acidic coiled-coil containing protein 3 (TACC3) exerts a vital role in cancer progression by modulating cell division and facilitating tumor growth. Given the lack of comprehensive research on the pancancer implications of TACC3, our study aimed to analyze the functional role of TACC3 in pancancer and validate it through experimental investigations in lung adenocarcinoma.

Methods: We first employed various bioinformatics techniques to investigate the expression and prognostic significance of TACC3 in pancancer.

Impaired emotional multimodal integration in inhibition of return in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder in children. Previous studies have shown that children with ADHD have impaired processing of emotional stimuli, but it is unclear whether their ability to integrate multimodal emotional stimuli is impaired and at which processing pathway this impairment exists. The present study investigated the ability of children with ADHD to integrate emotional audiovisual stimuli under different emotional conditions, and the effect of audiovisual integration on IOR to reveal the impaired processing pathway of their emotional audiovisual integration.

Identifying Typologies of Symptoms and Functional Impairments in Chinese Children With Leukemia and Their Population Characteristics: A Latent Profile Analysis.

Background: Symptom distress and functional impairments in children with leukemia directly affect their quality of life.

Objectives: To identify subgroups of symptom distress and functional impairments in Chinese children with leukemia and to examine the associations of the latent classes with individual characteristics.

Methods: This multicenter cross-sectional survey study recruited children with leukemia who received chemotherapy in 4 hospitals in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong Province.

Role of mir-32-3p in the diagnosis and risk assessment of osteoporotic fractures.

Background: Osteoporotic fractures (OPF) are fractures that occur with low-energy injuries or during daily activities, representing a serious consequence of osteoporosis (OP). With the worsening of population aging, the number of OPF patients continues to expand, causing a significant burden on families and society. Consequently, it is significant to diagnose and analyze OPF at the molecular level.

[Clinical features and risk factors of cholestasis in small for gestational age preterm infants].

Objectives: To investigate the clinical features and risk factors of cholestasis in small for gestational age (SGA) preterm infants.

Methods: This study selected SGA preterm infants born at less than 37 weeks of gestation and admitted to the Department of Neonatology, Children's Hospital of Soochow Universitywithin 24 hours after birth. The infants were divided into two groups: a cholestasis group and a non-cholestasis group.

Enteral micronutrient supplementation and neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm or low birth weight infants: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

The association of enteral micronutrient supplementation and the neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm or low birth weight (LBW) infants is controversial. This research was prospectively registered (CRD42023454034). We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycInfo, ClinicalTrials.

Walking pace is a protective factor for rheumatoid arthritis: a mendelian randomization study.

Walking pace is a simple and functional form of exercise and a strong predictor of health, but little is known about its causal association with rheumatoid arthritis. This study aimed to investigate the causal effect of WP on the developing RA using Mendelian randomization analysis. The genetic variation associated with WP was selected as an instrumental variable from the latest genome-wide association studies.

Small Molecule Compound DHPA Screened by Computer-Aided Drug Design and Molecular Dynamics Simulation Inhibits Neuroblastoma Cell Proliferation by Targeting TrkB.

Neuroblastoma (NB) is a rare and malignant pediatric solid tumor. Due to its heterogeneity, it poses significant challenges for treatment, resulting in a high mortality rate. This study aimed to identify new therapeutic drugs by modeling the TrkB receptor from PDB 4AT5 and conducting virtual screening of compounds from the YaTCM database (containing 47,696 compounds derived from 6220 Traditional Chinese Medicines).

[Analysis of the changes of bacterial spectrum and drug resistance in sputum culture of ICU children in a hospital of pediatric in Jiangsu Province from 2017 to 2022].

To investigate the changes of the distribution and drug resistance profile of bacteria from ICU children with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province from 2017 to 2022. From January 2017 to December 2022, a cross-sectional observational study on the bacterial spectrum analysis among intensive care unit (ICU) children with LRTI was conducted in Children's Hospital of Soochow University. The bacteria was cultivated by culture methods from sputum samples, and identified by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.

Accessibility of and Barriers to Long-Term Follow-Up Care for Childhood Cancer Survivors.

Importance: Childhood cancer survivorship programs and long-term follow-up (LTFU) practices are inadequate in most regions of China.

Objective: To understand the clinician and caregiver perceptions of LTFU care and to identify barriers to adherence to LTFU care in mainland China.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This survey study had a 2-phase sequential mixed-methods approach, consisting of a cross-sectional survey followed by semistructured interviews.

Intracellular osteopontin potentiates the immunosuppressive activity of mesenchymal stromal cells.

Introduction: Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-based cell therapy is a promising approach for various inflammatory disorders based on their immunosuppressive capacity. Osteopontin (OPN) regulates several cellular functions including tissue repair, bone metabolism and immune reaction. However, the biological function of OPN in regulating the immunosuppressive capacity of MSCs remains elusive.
