What's New? Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) lesions can spontaneously regress, especially in women aged under 30. Better predictive biomarkers are needed to improve risk stratification for active surveillance. This prospective multicenter cohort study evaluated HPV genotyping, p16/ki67 expression, and FAM19A4/miR124‐2 methylation ...

Abstract Racial and ethnic differences in drug disposition and response may have a significant impact on its risk‐benefit balance. Therefore, it is important to examine whether an investigational drug has characteristics that make the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and efficacy likely to be affected by intrinsic and extrinsic ethnic factors based on ...

Abstract Corticosteroids are effective anti‐cancer agents for treating hematologic malignancies in children. However, avascular necrosis (AVN) is a common and debilitating adverse effect, leading to bone death and impacting long‐term quality of life. This study aimed to uncover the genetic factors contributing to corticosteroid‐induced AVN in a well ...

The association between white blood cell count and relative risk of non-small cell lung cancer
Background High abundance of eosinophils has been proved to associated with favorable disease progression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the previous observational studies, but the causal relationship remains unclear. It is also unclear whether
