Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical outcomes after a transumbilical single-site laparoscopic-assisted Soave operation (TSLSO) for Hirschsprung disease (HD) in children, with a 10-year follow‑up results assessment.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 165 children with HD from January 2013 to January 2023. The operation method was a TSLSO.

Article Synopsis
  • - Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are diverse tumors that originate from neuroendocrine cells, with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) being the most common type.
  • - Recent studies show that GEP-NENs are becoming more prevalent and may have a more aggressive nature than previously thought, leading to limited life expectancy for patients.
  • - The review highlights the need for improved research on diagnosis and management of GEP-NENs, addressing current limitations in understanding their epidemiology, clinical features, and treatments.

Article Synopsis
  • Immunotherapies targeting ligand-receptor interactions (LRIs) are being developed for treating colorectal cancer (CRC), but their impact on the disease's progression and treatment effectiveness remains unclear.
  • The study analyzed over 55,000 single-cell RNA sequencing samples and additional data from 1,411 CRC patients to understand LRIs' roles in tumor microenvironment, immunotherapy response, and patient prognosis.
  • Findings include identifying CRC subtypes based on LRIs, establishing a prognostic model linked to these interactions, and suggesting potential targets for CRC therapy, improving risk assessments for patients.

Ferroptosis is a form of iron-dependent programmed cell death. Regulation of ferroptosis in tumor cells is a novel treatment modality. The present study aimed to investigate ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and construct a prognostic model for colon adenocarcinoma (COAD).

A co-catalyst of (PPh3)AuCl/AgOTf for the intermolecular hydroamination of allenes with sulfonamides is shown. The reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions for differently substituted allenes giving N-allylic sulfonamides in good yields with high regioselectivity and E-selectivity.
