Impact of marital status on survival in patients with follicular lymphoma.

Although marital status has been associated with survival in several cancers, evidence regarding its prognostic relevance in follicular lymphoma (FL), an indolent lymphoma characterized by prolonged survival, remains limited. In this population-based study using the SEER database, we identified 23,434 adult patients diagnosed with FL between 2013 and 2022. Propensity score matching was performed to balance baseline characteristics, and survival outcomes were assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards models. In the overall cohort, unmarried patients were more likely to b

Dissecting the Crosstalk Between Nrf2 and NF-κB Response Pathways in Drug-Induced Toxicity.

Nrf2 and NF-κB are important regulators of the response to oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. Previous pharmacological and genetic studies have confirmed crosstalk between the two. The deficiency of Nrf2 elevates the expression of NF-κB, leading to increased production of inflammatory factors, while NF-κB can affect the expression of downstream target genes by regulating the transcription and activity of Nrf2. At the same time, many therapeutic drug-induced organ toxicities, including hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, pulmonary toxicity, dermal toxicity, and neurotoxi

Etodolac improves collagen induced rheumatoid arthritis in rats by inhibiting synovial inflammation, fibrosis and hyperplasia.

Synovial hyperplasia is the main cause of chronic rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the mechanism of synovial hyperplasia is still unclear. Etodolac (ETD) is a selective COX-2 inhibitor for relieving pain and stiffness in RA, but the disease modifying effect is still lack of evidence. Proteomics method was used to study the differential proteome of synovial tissue in collagen induced arthritis (CIA) in rats. With the help of STRING analysis, the upregulated proteins enriched in the cluster of complement and coagulation cascades and platelet degranulation were highlighted, these proteins with fibr

Gaucher disease, state of the art and perspectives.

Knowledge about Gaucher disease (GD), considered a model for rare diseases, has considerably increased since its discovery. The pathophysiology of this lysosomal disorder is better known, and specific therapies that can control many aspects of the disease have been developed, particularly for the most common form, Type 1 GD. Yet, in part because of the rarity of GD, but also because of a lack of awareness by physicians, diagnostic delay too often leads to a belated management of patients having accumulated comorbidities. Gaucher cells, the most visible consequence of glucocerebrosidase deficie

A Comparative Study of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) Versus No ASCT in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma: A Single-Institution Experience From South India.

Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is a clonal plasma cell malignancy with significant morbidity and mortality. Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been a cornerstone in the treatment of newly diagnosed MM, but its role in the era of novel therapeutic agents remains under evaluation. Data from Indian populations are limited, particularly in the context of ASCT outcomes. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of ASCT versus no ASCT in newly diagnosed MM patients treated at a single institution in South India. Methodology A retrospective analysis was conducted among 59 patients diagn

На пути к более точному присвоению неблагоприятного явления в нескольких клинических испытаниях миэломы.

Неблагоприятное явление (ВЭ) атрибуция и отчетность в ходе многочисленных клинических испытаний миэломы (ММ) основываются на системах, разработанных для цитотоксичной химиотерапии, которые плохо подходят для современного терапевтического ландшафта. В ходе этого обзора выявляются систематические ограничения на каждом этапе представления докладов об ОЭ и предлагаются всеобъемлющие рамки реформы, адаптированные к ММ. Ошибки начинаются с идентификации AE и накапливаются на каждом последующем этапе - терминологической классификации, классификации степени тяжести и присвоения причинно-следственной с

Unraveling the Neurological Complexity of Polyneuropathy, Organomegaly, Endocrinopathy, Monoclonal Protein, and Skin Changes Syndrome: A Report of a Challenging Case of a Young Woman and Cutting-Edge Advancements in the Field.

POEMS syndrome-characterized by polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M-protein, and skin changes-is an uncommon and complex paraneoplastic disorder encompassing a diverse array of symptoms. Here we report the challenging case of a 34-year-old female who sought medical attention at the emergency department due to distal lower limb weakness. She was breastfeeding her first child at that time. Her condition rapidly deteriorated, making it difficult for her to perform simple tasks independently. Initially, she struggled with activities like jumping or climbing stairs. Eventually, her abil

Pre-Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Lung Computed Tomography as an Alternative to the Pulmonary Function Test during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The pulmonary function test (PFT) is an important test for risk stratification before allogeneic transplantation (allo-HCT). However, it might be preferable to avoid PFT as much as possible in the recent era of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), because PFT requires forced expirations and might produce aerosols, increasing the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Therefore, we tried to predict normal PFT results before allo-HCT based on computed tomography (CT) findings. This study included 390 allo-HCT recipients at our center for whom lung CT images and PFT results before allo-HCT were available

Osteoprotective Roles of Green Tea Catechins.

Osteoporosis is the second most common disease only secondary to cardiovascular disease, with the risk of fracture increasing with age. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance between osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis processes. Osteoclastogenesis may be enhanced, osteoblastogenesis may be reduced, or both may be evident. Inflammation and high reactive oxygen enhance osteoclastogenesis while reducing osteoblastogenesis by inducing osteoblast apoptosis and suppressing osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation. Catechins, the main polyphenols found in green tea with potent anti-oxida

A systems-pharmacology analysis of herbal medicines used in health improvement treatment: predicting potential new drugs and targets.

For thousands of years, tonic herbs have been successfully used all around the world to improve health, energy, and vitality. However, their underlying mechanisms of action in molecular/systems levels are still a mystery. In this work, two sets of tonic herbs, so called Qi-enriching herbs (QEH) and Blood-tonifying herbs (BTH) in TCM, were selected to elucidate why they can restore proper balance and harmony inside body, organ and energy system. Firstly, a pattern recognition model based on artificial neural network and discriminant analysis for assessing the molecular difference between QEH an

Ferroptosis and its emerging role in esophageal cancer.

The occurrence and development of tumors involve a series of life activities of cells, among which cell death has always been a crucial part in the research of tumor mechanisms and treatment methods. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic form of cell death, which is characterized by lipid peroxidation accumulation and further cell membrane rupture caused by excessive production of intracellular oxygen free radicals dependent on iron ions. Esophageal cancer is one of the common digestive tract tumors. Patients in the early stage are mainly treated with surgery, and the curative effect is awe-inspiring

Acupuncture combined with methylcobalamin for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with multiple myeloma.

BACKGROUND: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) seriously affects the quality of life of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) as well as the response rate to chemotherapy. Acupuncture has a potential role in the treatment of CIPN, but at present there have been no randomized clinical research studies to analyze the effectiveness of acupuncture for the treatment of CIPN, particularly in MM patients. METHODS: The MM patients (104 individuals) who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned into a solely methylcobalamin therapy group (500 μg intramuscular methylcobalamin injec

Advances in Extracellular Matrix-Associated Diagnostics and Therapeutics.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the common denominator of more than 50 chronic diseases. Some of these chronic pathologies lead to enhanced tissue formation and deposition, whereas others are associated with increased tissue degradation, and some exhibit a combination of both, leading to severe tissue alterations. To develop effective therapies for diseases affecting the lung, liver, kidney, skin, intestine, musculoskeletal system, heart, and solid tumors, we need to modulate the ECM's composition to restore its organization and function. Across diverse organ diseases, there are common denom

Menorrhagia due to uterine amyloidosis in familial Mediterranean fever: case-based review.

Amyloidosis is described by the deposition of misfolded proteins in the tissues. Amyloidoses are classified into two as systemic and localized. Out of the systemic forms, AL (light chain) amyloidosis is the most prevalent type; however, amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is more frequently encountered in the rheumatology practice. AA amyloidosis stands out as a major complication of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Splenic and renal involvement is more likely in FMF-associated systemic amyloidosis. The involvement of thyroid and adrenal glands has also been described, although infrequently. Amyloid
