Article Abstract

Objectives/hypothesis: This study offers an update on the epidemiologic and prognostic factors and treatment-specific outcomes in patients diagnosed with sinonasal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Methods: National Cancer Database was queried from 2004 to 2016 for patients with sinonasal DLBCL. Univariate Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox-regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association of suspected prognostic factors with overall survival (OS).

Results: A total of 2,222 patients with sinonasal DLBCL were analyzed. OS was 62% at 5 years and 42% at 10 years. Prognostic factors associated with increased survival included African-American race (HR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.33-0.70), chemotherapy (HR: 0.30, CI: 0.25-0.35), and radiation (HR: 0.80, CI: 0.69-0.93). Prognostic factors associated with decreased survival included patients with Charlson-Deyo scores of 1 (HR: 1.51, CI: 1.25-1.84), 2 (HR: 2.25, CI: 1.67-3.03), and 3 (HR: 2.36, CI: 1.49-3.74) and patients with Lugano stage III (HR: 1.69, CI: 1.09-2.62) and IV (HR: 1.96, CI: 1.46-2.64) disease. Stage-based split multivariate analysis was performed and revealed chemotherapy was independently associated with increased OS in patients with stage I (HR: 0.24, CI: 0.19-0.30), II (HR: 0.17, CI: 0.11-0.28), and IV (HR: 0.41, CI: 0.26-0.64) disease. Radiotherapy was independently associated with increased OS in patients with stage I disease only (HR: 0.67, CI: 0.55-0.83), while immunotherapy was an independent prognostic factor in patients with stage IV disease only (HR: 0.60, CI: 0.37-0.98).

Conclusion: This study is the largest to date to analyze the association of demographic features and treatment modalities with OS in patients with sinonasal DLBCL. It is the first to investigate the association of immunotherapy with OS in this population. A combination treatment of immunochemotherapy or radioimmunochemotherapy confers increased survival, particularly in patients with advanced disease.

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with its prognosis influenced by factors such as tumor clinical stage, histological type, and the patient's overall health. Recent studies highlight the critical role of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in the tumor microenvironment. Perturbations in LEC function in gastric cancer, marked by aberrant activation or damage, disrupt lymphatic fluid dynamics and impede immune cell infiltration, thereby modulating tumor progression and patient prognosis.

Background: Disruptive behavior and emotional problems - especially anxiety - are common in children and frequently co-occur. However, the role of co-occurring emotional problems in disruptive behavior intervention response is unclear. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of an indicated prevention program in children with disruptive behavior problems with vs.

Background: The treatment of mandibular angle fractures remains controversial, particularly regarding the method of fixation. The primary aim of this study was to compare surgical outcomes following treatment with 1-plate versus 2-plate fixation across two oral and maxillofacial surgery clinics. The secondary aim was to evaluate associations between patient-, trauma-, and procedure-specific factors with postoperative complications and to identify high-risk patients for secondary osteosynthesis.

Background: Current scoring systems for hypertriglyceridaemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) severity are few and lack reliability. The present work focused on screening predicting factors for HTG-SAP, then constructing and validating the visualization model of HTG-AP severity by combining relevant metabolic indexes.

Methods: Between January 2020 and December 2024, retrospective clinical information for HTG-AP inpatients from Weifang People's Hospital was examined.

Background: Thyroid nodules (TNs) are frequent and often benign. Accurately differentiating between benign and malignant nodules is crucial for proper management. This research aims to use ultrasonography to examine TNs and identify possible risk factors in order to improve patient outcomes and diagnostic accuracy.
