Background: Young breast cancer (YBC) is a subset of breast cancer that is often more aggressive, but less is known about its prognosis. In this study, we aimed to generate nomograms to predict the overall survival (OS) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) of YBC patients.
Methods: Data of women diagnosed with YBC between 2010 and 2020 were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.
Article Synopsis
- About 35% of grassland in the Sanjiangyuan area of China has degraded into black-soil mountain, and artificial grassland has been used to combat this issue.
- The study focused on mixed-sown artificial alpine grassland and compared it to degraded black-soil mountain grassland and natural alpine grassland, analyzing the community structure of soil bacteria and fungi.
- Results showed that planting artificial grasslands significantly improved soil carbon and nitrogen levels, altered microbial community compositions, and indicated that bacteria play a key role in nutrient cycling.

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the importance of a drought-resistant shrub in Northern China's desert areas, highlighting its role in desert rehabilitation and afforestation efforts using the Maxent model for predictive analysis.
- The study identifies environmental factors limiting the shrub's distribution and projects suitable planting areas under current and future climate scenarios, revealing a potential shift towards higher latitudes and further desertification.
- Notably, while the total suitable planting area covers 15.45% of China's land, future changes indicate a decrease in moderately and less suitable habitats, emphasizing the need for the exploration and utilization of the shrub's genetic resources.
Plants can adapt to environmental changes by adjusting their functional traits and biomass allocation. The size and number of flowers are functional traits related to plant reproduction. Life history theory predicts that there is a trade-off between flower size and number, and the trade-off can potentially explain the adaptability of plants.

Background: The wide use of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) is transforming the cancer-treatment landscape. Understanding the treatment-related adverse events (AEs) of ADCs is crucial for their clinical application. We conducted a meta-analysis to analyze the profile and incidence of AEs related to ADC use in the treatment of solid tumors and hematological malignancies.

Overgrazing leads to grassland degradation and productivity decline. Rest-grazing during the regreen-up period can quickly restore grassland and fertilization is a common restoration strategy. However, the effects of rest-grazing time and fertilization on soil microorganisms are unclear in the alpine grasslands.

Tibetan sheep is a unique breed living in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Since MSTN/Smad signaling pathway plays a critical role in the regulation of muscle development, we aimed to study the mutton quality, mRNA expression of main transduction genes in the MSTN/Smad signaling pathway, and the effects of those genes on the mutton quality of Tibetan sheep in this study. Six-month-old Qinghai-Tibetan sheep were selected, slaughtered, and their Longissimus lumborum, semitendinosus muscle, arm triceps, and quadriceps femoris muscle were collected.

Sanjiangyuan National Park (SNP), the first national park in China, is one of the most important biodiversity conservation areas in the Sanjiangyuan National Nature Reserve (SNNR) and even the world. The threatened ungulates play an irreplaceable role in maintaining the ecosystem diversity and stability in SNNR. Here, based on 1434 occurrence records of six ungulates, the maximum entropy model, with two different strategies, was utilized to determine the priority reserves.
