Purpose: Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) have high recurrence rates. We aimed to identify recurrence patterns in OKCs and the onset of second primary OKCs in non-syndromic and syndromic patients.
Material And Methods: Patients with OKCs reporting to our department from 1998 to 2021 (23 years) were retrospectively evaluated using demographic, clinical (age, sex, location, and size), histopathological, radiographic, and treatment data. All patients were followed-up for > 3 years and evaluated for OKC recurrence. Patients with naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) were evaluated separately.
Results: We included 38 and 13 patients in the non-syndromic and syndromic OKC groups, respectively. The recurrence rates were 15.8 and 21.4% in the non-syndromic and syndromic groups, respectively; 8.9% of patients exhibited a second recurrence and 1.8% a third recurrence. No second primary OKCs were observed in the non-syndromic group; 76.9% of patients in the syndromic group developed at least one.
Conclusion: We found a higher recurrence rate in patients with NBCCS compared with patients with non-syndromic OKCs (21.4 versus 15.8%). The probability of developing a second primary OKC in patients with NBCCS was higher compared with that in patients with non-syndromic OKCs (76.9 versus 0%). No statistically significant risk factors for OKC recurrence were identified.

Background: Sacubitril/valsartan is a widely used cardiovascular agent characterized by its dual inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and neprilysin. However, existing evidence on the safety of sacubitril/valsartan is primarily limited to clinical studies; this results in an inability to provide a timely update on associated adverse events.
Aim: To mine and systematically describe adverse events related to sacubitril/valsartan from September 2015 to June 2024 using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.

Single-cell surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has emerged as a powerful tool for precision medicine owing to its label-free detection, ultrasensitivity, and unique molecular fingerprinting. Unlike conventional bulk analysis, it enables detailed characterization of cellular heterogeneity, with particular promise in circulating tumor cell (CTC) identification, tumor microenvironment (TME) metabolic profiling, subcellular imaging, and drug sensitivity assessment. Coupled with microfluidic droplet systems, SERS supports high-throughput single-cell analysis and multiparametric screening, while integration with complementary modalities such as fluorescence microscopy and mass spectrometry enhances temporal and spatial resolution for monitoring live cells.

Background And Purpose: To date, no consensus guidelines have been published that systematically guide delineation of primary and nodal Clinical Target Volumes (CTVs) in patients who require post-operative radiotherapy (PORT) for mucosal Head and Neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). As a result, significant individual, institutional and national variation exists in the way that CTVs are delineated in the post-operative setting, leading to considerable heterogeneity in radiotherapy treatment.
Methods: A multi-disciplinary group of experts convened by the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) set-out principles for the multi-disciplinary management of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC).

The objective of this research was to use a network toxicology approach to examine the possible toxicity of the cigarette toxicants nicotine and coal tar that cause osteoporosis (OP) as well as its molecular processes. We determined the primary chemical structures and 128 targets of action of tar and nicotine using the Swiss Target Prediction, NP-MRD, and PubChem databases. We discovered that genes including DNAJB1, CCDC8, LINC00888, ATP6V1G1, MPV17L2, PPCS, and TACC1 had a disease prognostic guiding value by LASSO analysis and differential analysis of GEO microarray data.

Introduction: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), originates primarily from lymph nodes, with a small proportion arising extranodally in sites such as the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system. Given the general absence of lymphoid tissue in the bladder, primary bladder DLBCL is exceptionally rare.
Case Presentation: This case report describes an 83-year-old male patient with a bladder mass, initially suspected as cystitis glandularis, ultimately diagnosed via pathological examination as DLBCL.
