Antiemesis Corticosteroids Potentiate Checkpoint Blockade Efficacy by Normalizing the Immune Microenvironment in Metastatic Murine Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
Corticosteroids improve the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade therapy in metastatic murine breast cancer. By normalizing the tumor immune microenvironment, corticosteroids reduce immunosuppressive signals, restore T‐cell function, and promote antitumor immune responses, resulting in enhanced tumor control.

Retinal Capillary Density Reduction Contributes to Dysthyroid Optic Neuropathy via an L‐Arginine‐NO Pathway: A Metabonomics and Clinical Trial Study

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Oxidative stress induces endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) uncoupling and L‐arginine depletion, reducing nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability in vascular endothelium and contributing to decreased retinal capillary density (RCD) in dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON).

Efficacy of primary microvascular decompression versus subsequent microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurosurgery, 2017
OBJECTIVETrigeminal neuralgia (TN) is characterized by intermittent, paroxysmal, and lancinating pain along the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Microvascular decompression (MVD) directly addresses compression of the trigeminal nerve. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patients undergoing MVD as their first surgical intervention ...

Outcomes and Risk Factors in Oncologic Temporal Bone Surgery: A Head and Neck‐Specific NSQIP Analysis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 774-783, March 2026.
Abstract Objective Advanced temporal bone and parotid gland malignancies are rare and difficult to manage. However, complications of oncologic temporal bone surgery have not been systematically categorized. We aim to detail the postoperative outcomes of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) and mastoidectomy for otologic oncology patients, and ...
