Article Abstract
Mitochondria play a crucial role in adapting to fluctuating energy demands, particularly in various heart diseases. In addition to functional analyses such as the measurement of ROS or ATP, analysis of mitochondrial ultrastructure can be used to draw further conclusions about their functions and effects in tissue. In this protocol, we introduce a set of measurements to compare the ultrastructural and functional characteristics of human left ventricular mitochondria, using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Measured parameters included mean size in µm, elongation, count, percental mitochondrial area in the measuring frame, and a conglomeration score. We also introduce a novel method of defining hydropic mitochondria as a comparable evaluation standard. With this cluster of measurement parameters, we aim to contribute a protocol for studying human mitochondrial morphology, distribution, and functionality.

Hospital Management Research Center, Health Management Research Institute, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Introduction: Metastatic breast cancer (mBC) is a major global health challenge. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), including trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), and sacituzumab govitecan (SG), offer clinical benefits but are associated with high costs, making cost-effectiveness assessments essential for policy decisions.
Methods: This systematic review analyzed economic evaluations comparing T-DM1, T-DXd, and SG with conventional treatments in breast cancer.
Strategies for Tailoring Patient-Centered Technologies Across the Cancer Continuum: Protocol for a Scoping Review.

Division of Cancer Prevention and Control, Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Columbus, OH, United States.
Background: In the United States, cancer is more prevalent in racial and ethnic minority groups and in rural-dwelling and low-income people. Compared with White people of non-Hispanic descent, Black and African American people have higher cancer mortality and Hispanic people are more likely to be diagnosed with infection-related cancers. In addition, people who live in persistent poverty areas are more vulnerable to cancer mortality.

Background: Telemedicine has revolutionized the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in primary care by improving access to health care services and enhancing health outcomes. Despite these advancements, it remains unclear whether telemedicine has reduced access inequalities among different demographic and socioeconomic groups.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the most important demographic and socioeconomic factors associated with telemedicine use among individuals with T2DM in primary care.
Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of non-germinal center type with BCL-6 positivity in the kidney: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep

Department of Urology, The Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Dali University, Chuxiong, Yunnan 675000, China. Electronic address:
Introduction And Importance: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma, yet primary renal involvement is rare, constituting less than 1 % of renal malignancies. A case of non-germinal center B-cell-like (non-GCB) DLBCL with BCL-6 positivity is particularly unique. Conventionally, BCL-6 is linked to germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) subtypes.
