Department of Urology, Jinling Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University, Nanjing, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Advanced seminoma patients face a serious challenge with up to 30% exhibiting resistance to cisplatin, leading to a high mortality risk, and limited treatment options beyond traditional therapies like chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
  • A study utilized advanced statistical methods to identify immune-related genes, leading to the development of a prognostic signature that predicts patient survival more accurately than existing risk factors.
  • Results indicated that patients identified as high-risk had significantly lower progression-free survival, and certain molecular compounds could effectively target the identified genes, suggesting potential for immunotherapy in these patients.

The prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is generally poor. Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising therapeutic modality, demonstrating remarkable potential for substantially prolonging the overall survival of individuals afflicted with LUAD. However, there is currently a lack of reliable signatures for identifying patients who would benefit from immunotherapy.

Background: High relapse rates remain a clinical challenge in the management of breast cancer (BC), with distant recurrence being a major driver of patient deterioration. To optimize the surveillance regimen for distant recurrence after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), we conducted a comprehensive analysis using bioinformatics and machine learning approaches.

Materials And Methods: Microarray data were retrieved from the GEO database, and differential expression analysis was performed with the R package 'Limma'.

Myocardial infarction (MI), caused by continuous ischemia and hypoxia of the coronary artery, is one of the major causes of human mortality. This study aimed to investigate the role of notoginsenoside R1 (NGR1) in MI therapy. and models of MI were established by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-treatment of H9C2 cells and through the ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery of rats, respectively.
