Conference 2024: Building an innovative scientific research ecosystem for microbiome and One Health.

The Conference 2024 provides a platform to promote the development of an innovative scientific research ecosystem for microbiome and One Health. The four key components - Technology, Research (Biology), Academic journals, and Social media - form a synergistic ecosystem. Advanced technologies drive biological research, which generates novel insights that are disseminated through academic journals.

[Outcomes of assisted reproductive technology for patients with different types of teratozoospermia].

Objective: To discuss the outcomes of ICSI in infertile patients with globozoospermia (GS), acephalic spermatozoa syndrome (ASS) or teratozoospermia with miniacrosome and irregular-headed sperm defect (TMRHS).

Methods: This retrospective study included 3 cases of GS, 3 cases of ASS and 2 cases of TMRHS undergoing ICSI. We analyzed the rates of fertilization, cleavage, blastocyst formation, implantation, clinical pregnancy and live birth in the three groups of patients.

The prognostic value of preoperative inflammation-based prognostic scores and nutritional status for overall survival in resected patients with nonmetastatic Siewert type II/III adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.

Background: Immune and nutritional status of patients have been reported to predict postoperative complications, recurrence, and prognosis of patients with cancer. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to explore the prognostic value of preoperative inflammation-based prognostic scores [neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR)] and nutritional status [prognostic nutritional index (PNI), body mass index (BMI), hemoglobin, albumin, and prealbumin] for overall survival (OS) in adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG) patients.

Methods: A total of 355 patients diagnosed with Siewert type II/III AEG and underwent surgery between October 2010 and December 2011 were followed up until October 2016.
