Exploring the genetic associations and causal relationships between antibody responses, immune cells, and various types of breast cancer.

Background: There may be potential associations between various pathogens, antibody immune responses, and breast cancer (BC), but the specific mechanisms and causal relationships remain unclear.

Methods: First, multiple Mendelian randomization (MR) methods were used for univariable MR analysis to explore potential causal relationships between 34 antibody immune responses (related to 12 pathogens), 46 antibody immune responses (related to 13 pathogens), antibody responses post-COVID-19 vaccination, 731 immune cell types, and various BC subtypes (including overall BC, ER-positive, ER-negative, Luminal A, Luminal B, Luminal B HER2-negative, HER2-positive, and triple-negative BC). The primary results were then subjected to reverse MR analysis, heterogeneity testing using Cochran's Q, and horizontal pleiotropy testing.

Summary of Outpatient Visits for Characteristic Nursing in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The aim of this study was to investigate the practical outcomes of traditional Chinese medicine specialty nursing clinics in the clinical setting. Outpatient services have become increasingly popular for seeking medical care. Establishing traditional Chinese medicine specialty nursing clinics can meet the medical needs of the general public, and provide patients with convenient and efficient medical services.
