Targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has improved survival across multiple cancer types, but the variability in patient response h…

[BACKGROUND] Although both the immune and hematopoietic systems play important roles in prostate cancer (PCa), few studies have comprehensively investigated the combined influence of these systems on PCa risk. [METHOD] The datasets used to…

[BACKGROUND] Contemporary, systematic comparisons of prostate cancer (PCa) across the entire age spectrum regarding incidence, pathology, treatment, and long-term outcomes remain lacking. [METHODS] Patients were identified from the Surveil…

Recent studies have revealed that the long-recognized link between the historically defined group and colorectal cancer is largely driven by . This species, along with two others ( and ), was recently reclassified as distinct from , highli…

The inhibitory receptor leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2), expressed on myeloid cells like monocytes and tumor-resident myeloid cells, sustains an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and promotes tumor progression. Pha…

[BACKGROUND] Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) are therapeutic agents for relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL). Previous indirect treatment comparisons are limited in simultaneously comparing multiple intervent…

[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES] The phase angle, which is associated with cellular health, has garnered increasing attention as a noninvasive and objective method for nutritional assessment. However, the association between malnutrition and pha…

[AIM] Conventional therapies in Japan for relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (r/r LBCL) require intravenous infusion (IV), while epcoritamab is administered subcutaneously. Despite the expected quality of life (QOL) improvement fr…

[BACKGROUND] The treatment strategy for intestinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and the role of surgery warrant reevaluation. [METHODS] This study analyzed clinical data from a cohort of 12,047 patients diagnosed with intestinal NHL, extract…

[BACKGROUND] Maintenance therapy is an integral component of treatment for B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and has demonstrated clinical efficacy. However, features of immune activation and an increased thrombotic risk may persi…

Tensins are a family of adhesion proteins that play a role in constructing the cytoskeleton, as well as in intracellular and extracellular communication. Their expression was evaluated in 22 pancreatic cancer patients using the immunohistoc…

[BACKGROUND] Ischemic preconditioning of parathyroid glands (IPCP) is biologically plausible but clinical evidence is limited. In this single-center randomized trial (ChiCTR2000039788), we compared IPCP versus control during total thyroidec…

[OBJECTIVE] To compare the effects of exercise-based interventions on cardiometabolic health and fatigue in men with prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). [METHODS] A comprehensive search for Randomized controlled s…

[BACKGROUND] Antiviral therapies for hepatitis B or C virus may be associated with reduced risk of tumor recurrence and mortality of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing curative treatments, compared to untreated patients…

[OBJECTIVE] To explore psychological distress and its influencing factors, including hope, rumination, and fear of disease progression, among spouses of patients diagnosed with familial clustering of hepatitis B virus (HBV) -related hepatoc…

[OBJECTIVE] Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) has improved outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with peritoneal metastases (PM), yet evidence regarding perioperative risk and long-term …

[AIM] Inadequate adherence to colorectal cancer screening reduces individual and population level health benefits. Blood-based tests offer a new modality that may help patients overcome barriers, but there are concerns about the impact of p…

[BACKGROUND] Indigenous communities in Canada have high age-standardized rates of cancer mortality. Remote communities in Canada's northern territories have a high proportion of Indigenous residents and disproportionately low utilization ra…

[PURPOSE] Large vision-language models (VLMs), such as GPT-4.1 and GPT-4o, have shown strong potential in medical tasks. However, their application in lossless 3D medical image analysis is still underexplored. This study proposes a GPT-base…

Accurate prognosis of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is crucial for enhancing patient care and treatment outcomes. Despite the advancements in deep learning, the task of overall survival prediction in NSCLC has not fully leveraged these…
