Reconceptualizing Aplastic Anemia—Seed, Worm, Soil
Aplastic anemia (AA) encompasses a group of hematological syndromes often misdiagnosed, resulting in a decrease in the overall blood cell count and representing a form of bone marrow failure. We reinterpret AA based on the “seed, worm, and soil” doctrine.

Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine

This study developed a simple, low‐cost scoring system using routine complete blood count (CBC) and derived immune‐inflammatory indicators (LYM%, PLT, PCT, and PLT × LYM) for early diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) in 1662 children. Age‐stratified analysis confirmed that key indicators remained significantly higher in the pneumonia ...
