Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: Friend or Foe

open access: yesMaedica - A Journal of Clinical Medicine
Most breast cancers require neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the response to primary systemic therapy (PST) is crucial for deciding on the surgical technique and predicting patient outcomes. However, chemotherapy also brings numerous side effects, with cardiovascular issues being some of the most significant, common and challenging to manage.We present the

Engineered TIGIT‐Blockade Membrane Vesicles Synergize with Microwave Ablation to Mediate Liver Metastases Eradication

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microwave ablation (MWA) represents a highly effective and clinically significant therapeutic modality for the treatment of liver metastases. This study develops engineered cell membrane vesicles to specifically target the transition zone of MWA for liver metastases. This strategy can inhibit VEGF‐mediated immunosuppression, block CD155/TIGIT signaling

FomA‐Containing Outer Membrane Vesicles of Fusobacterium Nucleatum Facilitate Bladder Cancer Lymphatic Metastasis via IL‐6‐Dependent M2b Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Urinary Fusobacterium nucleatum–derived outer membrane vesicles are shown to promote bladder cancer lymphatic metastasis. The vesicle protein FomA activates TLR2/NF‐κB signaling in tumor cells, induces IL‐6 secretion, and drives M2b macrophage polarization and VEGF‐C–dependent lymphangiogenesis, revealing a microbiota‐driven mechanism linking tumor ...

Proposal of Early Drain Exchange After Pancreatoduodenectomy From the View of Reducing Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To mitigate the progression of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), appropriate drain management is required, and exchanging drainage tubes is commonly performed. However, the optimal timing of the first drain exchange has not yet been determined.

Enhancing Surgical Efficiency and Cost‐Effectiveness With TaTME‐Combined Robot‐Assisted Surgery for Lower Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Robot‐assisted rectal surgery (RAS) offers improved dexterity and visualization; however, the high cost of equipment and consumables remains a major challenge for hospital management. At our institution, we have adopted a combined approach using transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) for lower rectal cancers, aiming to shorten ...

To Evaluate Whether Pretreatment CA19‐9 and DUPAN‐2 Levels Can Serve as Predictive Markers to Guide the Choice Between NAT and Upfront Surgery in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
NAT‐GS was significantly more effective only in patients with one tumor marker above the reference range, comparing those who achieved 12‐month MRFS with those who did not. ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, with early recurrence severely affecting prognosis even after curative resection.
