Article Abstract
Prognostic scoring systems are applied in intensive care units (ICUs) to monitor patients' responses to treatment and guide treatment modalities. These scoring systems are also used as predictors in sepsis, where mortality rates are high. This study aims to compare the scores (APACHE II, SOFA, SAPS II, OASIS) in terms of their role in predicting overall mortality in patients admitted to ICUs with a diagnosis of sepsis or septic shock. Among 740 patients admitted to the tertiary intensive care unit within a 2-year period, 165 patients diagnosed with sepsis and septic shock were included in the study. Demographic data, comorbidities, SOFA, SAPSII, OASIS, and APACHE II scores, invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation requirements and durations, ICU admissions, hospital stays, and 28-day mortalities were retrospectively evaluated. All scoring systems were positively correlated with mortality and CCI score. SAPS II and OASIS showed a higher correlation with mortality compared to other scoring systems, correlated with ICU admission and mechanical ventilation, unlike other scoring systems. The AUC values for the APACHE II, SOFA, SAPS II, and OASIS were 0.803, 0.873, 0.902, and 0.879, respectively. No statistically significant difference was found between the scores ( > 0.05). Compared to commonly used scoring systems, OASIS is a practical tool and serves as a robust scoring system for assessing mortality in ICU patients diagnosed with sepsis.

Institute of Hematology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, 430022, China.
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.
Number of Examined Lymph Nodes in the Highest Quartile Enhances Staging and Prognosis for Patients with Esophageal Cancer Receiving Neoadjuvant Therapy.

Cancer Center, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
Background: The optimal number of examined lymph nodes (ELN) for accurate staging and prognosis for esophageal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of ELN count on pathologic staging and survival outcomes and to develop a predictive model for lymph node positivity in this patient population.
Methods: Data were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and a multicenter cohort.

Background: In tackle-collision sports, the tackle has the highest incidence, severity, and burden of injury. Head injuries and concussions during the tackle are a major concern within tackle-collision sports. To reduce concussion and head impact risk, evaluating optimal tackle techniques to inform tackle-related prevention strategies has been recommended.

Rationale: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are used to identify genetic variants for association with schizophrenia (SCZ) risk; however, each GWAS can only reveal a small fraction of this association.
Objectives: This study systematically analyzed multiple GWAS data sets to identify gene subnetwork and pathways associated with SCZ.
Methods: We identified gene subnetwork using dmGWAS program by combining SCZ GWASs and a human interaction network, performed gene-set analysis to test the association of gene subnetwork with clinical symptom scores and disease state, meanwhile, conducted spatiotemporal and tissue-specific expression patterns and cell-type-specific analysis of genes in the subnetwork.
