The PTEN tumor suppressor regulates the PIK3CA/AKT1 pathway, and its inactivation significantly contributes to tumorigenesis and progression in hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative (HR + /HER2 -) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). In ~ 5% of these patients, PTEN loss, primarily due to gene deletions, leads to aberrant PI3K signaling and enhanced oncogenic potential. Findings from the CAPItello-291 study further establish PTEN together with PIK3CA and AKT1 as a predictive biomarker for Capivasertib, a pan-AKT inhibitor, in these patients.

Objectives: Postoperative pain remains a significant concern in endodontics. The main aim of this clinical trial was to assess the impact of various obturation technique and sealer types on post-obturation pain and sealer extrusion in single-visit nonsurgical root canal treatments.

Materials And Methods: Study participants were recruited through consecutive sampling from patients referred to the Endodontic Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Institution University, diagnosed as asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

Observing differential spin currents by resonant inelastic X-ray scattering.

Nature

September 2025

National Synchrotron Light Source II, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY, USA.

Controlling spin currents, that is, the flow of spin angular momentum, in small magnetic devices, is the principal objective of spin electronics, a main contender for future energy-efficient information technologies. A pure spin current has never been measured directly because the associated electric stray fields and/or shifts in the non-equilibrium spin-dependent distribution functions are too small for conventional experimental detection methods optimized for charge transport. Here we report that resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) can bridge this gap by measuring the spin current carried by magnons-the quanta of the spin wave excitations of the magnetic order-in the presence of temperature gradients across a magnetic insulator.

Background And Objective: While whole-gland therapies for localized prostate cancer (PCa) offer excellent oncological outcomes, these can impact patients' quality of life (QoL) through serious side effects. Focal therapy using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to preserve QoL. However, data on the psychological impact of HIFU remain rare.

Inferior Vena Cava Ultrasound to Guide Decongestion in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

JACC Heart Fail

September 2025

German Center for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK); Heart Center Leipzig, Department of Internal Medicine/Cardiology, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany.

Background: Residual congestion at hospital discharge after an episode of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is associated with poor prognosis. There is no consensus on how optimal decongestion should be assessed.

Objectives: This study aims to determine whether decongestive therapy guided by ultrasound measurements of inferior vena cava (IVC) diameters leads to greater reductions in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels from baseline to hospital discharge as compared with decongestion treatment guided by clinical assessment alone.
