Targeted drugs have revolutionized the treatment of advanced non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the understanding of how cardiac comorbidity and toxicity affect the clinical outcomes of patients following targeted therapy remains limited. In a 14‑year cohort, cardiac comorbidities and toxicities among patients with stage‑IV NSCLC treated with targeted therapy were identified.

Article Synopsis
  • Chemotherapy can cause heart damage (cardiotoxicity), influenced by various factors, including the role of RNAs in both cancer and heart failure.
  • Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which make up a large part of our genetic material, can serve as valuable biomarkers and therapeutic tools for detecting and treating diseases related to cardiotoxicity.
  • The study focuses on the role of ncRNAs in Cardio-Oncology, aiming to enhance understanding of their impact and improve early detection and management of heart issues linked to chemotherapy.

Article Synopsis
  • A study surveyed 66,448 COVID-19 patients in China to investigate the clinical characteristics and factors affecting asymptomatic infections and the resolution of symptoms.
  • Results showed that common symptoms included upper respiratory issues, and factors like being male, younger than 60, and vaccinated were linked to asymptomatic cases and faster recovery from symptoms.
  • The findings emphasized the importance of vaccination and suggested that while Chinese medicine might help, proper guidance is essential for its use in treating COVID-19.

Objective: This study aims to examine the nutritional status of individuals diagnosed with esophageal cancer and compare the nutritional indicators and intestinal flora between malnourished and non-malnourished patients. The findings aim to contribute to the early prevention of malnutrition and the development of interventions targeting the intestinal flora to treat esophageal cancer.

Methods: An 80-patient sample of hospitalized individuals with esophageal cancer was selected from the radiotherapy department of our hospital between July 2021 and July 2022 to evaluate NRS2002 scores and PG-SGA scores.

Objective: SAPHO (Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis and Osteitis) syndrome is a heterogeneous disease that clinically manifests as chronic inflammatory osteoarticular and dermatological lesions. Few reports have described familial clustering of SAPHO syndrome cases. This research aimed to illustrate the family aggregation of SAPHO syndrome and investigate the prevalence of autoimmune disorders among SAPHO syndrome patients and first-degree relatives in a large cohort.

Secukinumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-17 (IL-17), has exhibited encouraging results in the therapeutic management of palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP). The development of alopecia areata (AA) is closely related to IL-17, and IL-17A inhibitors were considered as a potential treatment modality. Therefore, the development of AA during secukinumab treatment for PPP is a rare adverse event that has been rarely reported worldwide.

Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is an uncommon clinical syndrome with the signs of skin problems and osteoarthropathy as its main features. The pathogenesis of SAPHO syndrome has not been fully elucidated, and multiple complications may be present, including thrombosis. A 39-year-old male patient was diagnosed with SAPHO syndrome, complicated by multiple venous thrombosis of the left lower limb.

Immune heterogeneity in cardiovascular diseases from a single-cell perspective.

Front Cardiovasc Med

April 2023

China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Guang'anmen Hospital, Beijing, China.

A variety of immune cell subsets occupy different niches in the cardiovascular system, causing changes in the structure and function of the heart and vascular system, and driving the progress of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The immune cells infiltrating the injury site are highly diverse and integrate into a broad dynamic immune network that controls the dynamic changes of CVDs. Due to technical limitations, the effects and molecular mechanisms of these dynamic immune networks on CVDs have not been fully revealed.
