Article Abstract

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and postoperative chemotherapeutics interact in the tumor micro-environment. This interaction has not been well investigated in gastric cancer. A total of 129 patients were divided into high or low TILs based on the median number of positive CD3 and FoxP3 T cells, which was assessed by immunocytochemistry. Cox regression analysis showed that the stage III disease with shorter overall survival was significant. The analysis showed that high numbers of CD3 or FoxP3 T cells have better clinical outcomes in FOLFOX-treated patients. High CD3 and FoxP3 T-cell infiltration was associated with better clinical outcomes in patients with gastric cancer treated with FOLFOX, suggesting TILs incorporated into algorithms to improve the therapeutic efficacy of optimal chemotherapy.

Since the release of the Supreme Court decision in June 2022, researchers have been working to better understand the impact that the growing number of abortion restrictions are having on the provision of and access to abortion services in the United States (US). Less is known about the impact of abortion restrictions on the provision of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services more broadly, including at clinics that do not directly offer abortion. Between November 2023 and February 2024, we conducted interviews with SRH managers, clinic managers, and other administrators at publicly funded SRH clinics around the US to generate evidence on the effects of state-level abortion restrictions on the provision of abortion and related services, such as pregnancy options counselling and abortion referrals, at facilities providing contraceptive services.

Sex and intimacy are generally considered to be vital to an individual's psychological wellbeing. As such, anything that affects a person's ability to engage in sex and intimacy has the potential to significantly impact their mental health. It is well known that stoma-forming surgery can leave ostomates with body-image issues and a profound feeling of lack of control over their body.

m6A-Mediated Methylation Patterns and Their Association With Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Cancer Rep (Hoboken)

September 2025

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou Dushu Lake Hospital, Medical Centre of Soochow University, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.

Background: Epigenetic regulation significantly affects immune responses in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, the role of RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, especially in obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) within LUAD, is not well understood.

Methods: This study examined m6A modification patterns in 973 LUAD patients using 23 regulatory genes.
