Article Abstract
Cancer prognosis markers are useful for treatment decisions; however, the omics-level landscape is not well understood across multiple cancer types. Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) provides unprecedented access to various types of molecular data, ranging from typical DNA mutations and RNA expressions to more deeply analyzed or whole-genomic features, such as HLA haplotypes and structural variations. We analyzed the PCAWG data of 13 cancer types from 1,514 patients to identify prognosis markers belonging to 17 molecular features in the survival analysis based on the Cox and Lasso regression methods. We found that germline features including HLA haplotypes, neoantigens, and the number of structural variations were associated with overall survival; however, mutational signatures were not. Measuring a few markers provided a sufficient prognostic performance evaluated by c-index for each cancer type. DNA markers demonstrated better or comparable prognostic performance compared to RNA markers in some cancer types. "Universal" markers strongly associated with overall survival across cancer types were not identified. These findings will give insights into the clinical implementation of prognosis markers.

Mediastinal masses often present acutely as medical emergencies, necessitating prompt and accurate diagnosis. Imaging-guided fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) plays a pivotal role in rapidly identifying rare mediastinal tumours and differentiating them from other potential aetiologies, enabling timely intervention. Primary mediastinal germ cell tumours (PMGCTs) constitute approximately 15% of adult mediastinal neoplasms.

Unlabelled: Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a severe complication of solid malignancies, including lung adenocarcinoma, characterized by poor prognosis and diagnostic challenges. This study assesses whether curvilinear peri-brainstem hyperintense signals on MRI are a characteristic feature of LM in lung adenocarcinoma patients.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from multiple centers, encompassing lung adenocarcinoma patients with peri-brainstem curvilinear hyperintense signals on MRI between January 2016 and March 2022.

Introduction: Primary central nervous system vasculitis (primary CNS vasculitis) is a rare inflammatory disorder that affects small-to-medium-sized cerebral vessels, often leading to recurrent strokes. Diagnosis is vague due to non-specific neurological symptoms. Imaging findings, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis and exclusion of systemic vasculitis are essential for diagnosis.

Background: SLC16A3, a highly expressed H + -coupled symporter, facilitates lactate transport via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), contributing to acidosis. Although SLC16A3 has been implicated in tumor development, its role in tumor immunity remains unclear.
Methods: A pan-cancer analysis was conducted using datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, and Genotype-Tissue Expression projects.

The vascular endothelium is responsible for regulating vascular tone, maintaining fluid homeo-stasis, and preventing platelet aggregation, exhibits regulatory properties in vasorelaxation and vasoconstriction - it produces, among others, nitric oxide and endothelin. The imbalance of vasoactive molecules leads to the loss of their function, known as endothelial dysfunction. Impaired endothelial function is observed in people with metabolic disorders, often preceding the onset of the disease by several years.
