Article Abstract

Purpose: Numerous studies have emphasised the importance of necroptosis in the malignant progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, whether necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) can be used to predict the prognosis of CRC remains to be revealed.

Methods: Patients with CRC were divided into two clusters based on the expression of NRGs, and prognosis was compared between the two clusters. A prognostic model was established based on NRGs, and its predictive efficiency was validated using Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curves, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and a nomogram. Immune infiltration, single-cell and drug sensitivity analyses were used to examine the effects of NRGs on the prognosis of CRC.

Results: The prognostic model served as a valid and independent predictor of CRC prognosis. Immune infiltration and single-cell analyses revealed that the unique immune microenvironment of CRC was regulated by NRGs. Drug sensitivity analysis showed that patients in the high- and low-risk groups were sensitive to different drugs. In addition, was found to play an important role in regulating the malignant progression of CRC.

Conclusion: This study provides novel insights into precision immunotherapy based on NRGs in CRC. The NRG-based prognostic model may help to identify targeted drugs and develop more effective and individualised treatment strategies for patients with CRC.

Background: Previous studies indicated that over-dissection of lymph nodes might impair the efficacy of immunotherapy. This study aims to explore the prognostic value of ypN + status and the impact of lymph node dissection (LND) on survival after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (NICT) for esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC).

Methods: This double-center retrospective study enrolled 206 consecutive ESCC patients who underwent NICT followed by esophagectomy between 2018 and 2024.

Whole blood (WB) transcriptomics offers a minimal-invasive method to assess patients' immune system. This study aimed to identify transcriptional patterns in WB associated with clinical outcomes in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We performed RNA-sequencing on pre-treatment WB samples from 145 patients with advanced cancer.

Active and Passive Cardiac Index as Complementary Predictors of Outcomes After LVAD Implantation.

J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg

Introduction: Goals of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy includes low rates of right ventricular failure (RVF) and favorable survival outcomes. However, conventional metrics often fail to capture its physiologic complexity. We evaluated the prognostic utility of the Active Cardiac Index (ActCI) and Passive Cardiac Index (PasCI)-which reflect cardiac output driven by active RV contractility and passive venous return, respectively.

Background: Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) is a critical medical emergency and is a common cause of illness and death in individuals with liver cirrhosis.

Objective: The point of this study was to check how well the albumin-to-bilirubin ratio (ALBI) and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores could predict how these patients would do in the future.

Methods: The Imam Khomeini Hospital gastroenterology department conducted a retrospective examination.
