Article Abstract
There is no recognized serum biomarker to predict the recurrence of endometrial carcinoma (EC). We aimed to explore serum human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and cancer antigen 125 (CA125) as the biomarkers to predict and monitor recurrence of type II EC. 191 patients diagnosed with type II EC were involved for this retrospective study. Comparing recurrent with non-recurrent patients, HE4 levels resulted a statistically significant difference at primary diagnosis and recurrence, respectively (P = 0.002 and P = < 0.001), while CA125 levels resulted statistically significant (P = < 0.001) at recurrence. According to receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the areas under the curve were significant for HE4 levels at primary diagnosis and recurrence predicting recurrence. Furthermore, CA125 levels at recurrence were significant. And the combination of both markers showed the higher sensitivity and specificity than single one. Patients with higher HE4 levels were associated with worse disease-free survival and overall survival, the opposite was true for patients with lower HE4 levels. The preoperative HE4 levels could be used to evaluate the risk factors of type II EC. Which suggested that HE4 levels might associated with the prognosis of type II EC. And combination of HE4 and CA125 could be applied to monitor recurrence during follow-up.

In January 2019, the state of Minas Gerais was struck by an environmental tragedy resulting from the collapse of the Córrego do Feijão Mine Dam, in Brumadinho. On this occasion, the Military Fire Brigade of the State of Rio de Janeiro (CBMERJ) designated specialized teams for emergency intervention, in aid of agents from the local corporation involved in providing care and support to victims and residents of the affected areas. However, these professionals were exposed to mud containing substances that cause harm to health.

Pollination is essential for maintaining biodiversity and ensuring food security, and in Europe it is primarily mediated by four insect orders (Coleoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera). However, traditional monitoring methods are costly and time consuming. Although recent automation efforts have focused on butterflies and bees, flies, a diverse and ecologically important group of pollinators, have received comparatively little attention, likely due to the challenges posed by their subtle morphological differences.

Adolescence is frequently called the second brain maturation period. In Tourette disorder (TD), the clinical trajectory of tics and associated psychiatric co-morbidities vary significantly across individuals during the transition from adolescents to adulthood. In this study, we aimed to identify patterns of resting-state functional connectivity that differentiate adolescents with TD from their neurotypical peers, and to monitor symptom-specific functional changes over time.

Objective: To develop a novel prognostic scoring system for severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) treated with anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T-cell therapy, aiming to optimize risk mitigation strategies and improve clinical management.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included 125 B-ALL patients who received anti-CD19 CAR-T-cell therapy from January 2017 to October 2023. These cases were selected from a cohort of over 500 treated patients on the basis of the availability of comprehensive baseline data, documented CRS grading, and at least 3 months of follow-up.

Small glaciers situated in high mountainous areas are experiencing notable declines, characterized by unprecedented rates of ice loss in recent years. This study investigates the recent changes in surface elevation and mass loss occurring between 2010 and 2023 within the Alamkouh Glacier over three subperiods, one of the biggest glaciers in Iran and the Middle East. These assessments are derived from a combination of high-resolution LiDAR data in 2010 (with a spatial resolution of 20 cm) and multi-temporal surveys conducted using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in 2018, 2020, and 2023 (with spatial resolutions varied from 10 to 20 cm).
