Clinical Significance of PD‐L1 and HLA Expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Response to Immunotherapy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study evaluated immune‐related biomarkers in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors after postoperative recurrence. PD‐L1 expression in tumor‐associated macrophages and tumor cells, together with HLA class I downregulation and HLA‐DR expression, were associated with favorable responses to immunotherapy.

Predicting the Efficacy of Adjuvant Chemotherapy Using Immuno‐Nutritional and Inflammatory Markers in Elderly Patients With Stage III Colorectal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine whether immuno‐nutritional and inflammatory markers could serve as predictors of the outcomes of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for stage III colorectal cancer in elderly patients. Postoperative lymphocyte‐to‐monocyte ratio and postoperative C‐reactive protein‐to‐albumin ratio accurately predicted the efficacy of ...

Lymphocyte‐C‐Reactive Protein Ratio as Promising New Marker for Predicting Surgical Site Infection in Children With Ulcerative Colitis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infection (SSI) is a major complication after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA) in pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC), significantly impairing quality of life. The lymphocyte‐to–C‐reactive protein ratio (LCR), a composite marker of systemic inflammation and immune/nutritional status, has emerged as a potential ...

Single‐Incision Laparoscopy‐First Strategy in Crohn's Disease: Risk Factors for Conversion and Surgical Outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this retrospective study of 289 patients with Crohn's disease undergoing a single‐incision laparoscopy‐first (SILS‐first) strategy, conversion to open surgery was required in only 11.8% of cases. Fistula formation, colon resection, and smoking history were identified as independent risk factors for conversion, while postoperative complications and ...

Contribution for the structural characterization of the particles of light weight expanded clay aggregates [PDF]

, 2010
The use of light weight expanded clay aggregates to built road embankments is nowadays a common practice mainly when very soft soil foundations are present. There are good reasons to think that the knowledge of the nature of the structure of the material

Prediction of Long‐Term Prognosis in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using the National Clinical Database Risk Calculator

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the value of the National Clinical Database (NCD) risk calculator in predicting surgical outcomes and long‐term prognosis in patients undergoing resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We retrospectively analyzed data from 210 patients with HCC who underwent initial hepatic resection, assessing the relationship ...

Severe ADEM‐Like Neuroinflammatory Disease and Cerebrovascular Fragility With Recurrent Pseudoaneurysms and Moyamoya in a Familial Germline CBL Mutation: Expanding the Clinical Phenotype

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterozygous germline variants in CBL disrupt its function as a negative regulator of the Ras/MAPK pathway, classically predisposing to Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) and moyamoya. We describe two affected siblings carrying a paternally inherited CBL variant (c.1210 T> C, p.

Strain‐Release Pentafluorosulfanylation of Carbonyl‐Containing Disubstituted Bicyclobutanes: A Fortuitous Path to SF5‐Containing Oxa[2.1.1]bicyclohexanes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A regio‐ and diastereoselective method for strain‐release pentafluorosulfanylation of carbonyl‐containing 1,3‐disubstituted [1.1.0]bicyclobutanes (BCBs) was developed that led to several fortuitous discoveries. For instance, the resultant SF5‐cyclobutanes (SF5‐CBs) exhibit close SF5⋯C═X contacts (X = C, N, O) and provide synthetic access to a new class
