This study showed that the prevalence of TB and HIV co-infection failed to decrease over the study period, and that, while there was an increasing trend for integration of collaborative services, this was not uniform over time. Aligning and integrating TB and HIV responses are still needed to achieve the target of ending TB and HIV by 2030.

Vacuum drains have been extensively applied to prevent seroma formation after breast surgery. However, the usage of negative suction drainage is mainly determined by surgeon's experience and preferences. The aim of this study is to prospectively compare the drain effect after breast surgery between the low and high vacuum drains.

This prospectively randomized trial (from January 2018 to June 2019) involved 188 patients who were subjected to modified radical mastectomy (group A, n=128) or immediate breast reconstruction with implants (group B, n=60). In each group, patients were randomized to receive high vacuum drain (pressure=-98 kPa) or low vacuum drain (pressure=-12 kPa) after surgery. Days of drain permanence, which means the duration of drainage, was the primary endpoint.

According to the comparison of days of drain permanence, the effect of a low vacuum drain is not inferior to a high vacuum drain in group A (pectoral drain,

<0.001; axillary drain,

<0.001) or group B (submuscular drain,

=0.002). The complications frequently occurred on patients with high vacuum drain (11.7%), such as seroma formation. The expense of low vacuum drain was significantly lower than high vacuum drain in both groups (

<0.01).

The drain effect of the low vacuum drain is not inferior to a high vacuum drain in both group A and group B. The low vacuum drain was effective, relatively cheap, and did not increase the incidence of complications; it is therefore more recommended after breast surgery.

In medulloblastoma (MB), group 3 (G3) patients with

amplification tend to exhibit worse prognosis, thus creating a need for novel effective therapies. As the driver and crucial dependency for

-amplified G3-MB,

has been proven to be a prospective therapeutic target. Here, we aimed to identify novel effective therapeutic strategies against

-amplified G3-MB via targeting

translation.

Major components of translation initiation complex eIF4F were subjected to MB tumor dataset analysis, and

was identified to be a potential therapeutic target of

-amplified G3-MB. Validation was performed through genetic or pharmacological approaches with multiple patient-derived tumor models of

-amplified G3-MB in vitro and in vivo. Underlying mechanisms were further explored by Western blot, quantitative real-time PCR and mass spectrometry (MS) analyses.

MB tumor datasets analyses showed that

was significantly up-regulated in G3-MB patients relative to normal cerebella, positively correlated with

in G3-MB at transcriptional level and a crucial cancer dependency in

-amplified G3-MB cells. ACT001 supplier Targeting

with a CRISPR/Cas9 approach or small-molecule inhibitor silvestrol effectively attenuated growth in multiple preclinical models of

-amplified G3-MB via blocking proliferation and inducing apoptosis. Mechanistically, EIF4A1 inhibition effectively impeded

expression at translational level, and its potency was positively associated with MYC level. Whole-proteome MS analysis of silvestrol-treated cells further unveiled other biological functions and pathways influenced by EIF4A1 inhibition.

Our investigation shows that interrupting

translation by EIF4A1 inhibition could be a potential effective therapeutic approach when treating patients with

-amplified G3-MB.

Family with sequence similarity 234 member B (

), a protein-coding gene, is mainly expressed in brain tissues. Its clinical significance and biological function in tumors, especially in breast cancer (BC), have not been elucidated.

We firstly investigated the expression pattern of

at the mRNA and protein levels using Oncomine, TCGA portal, GEPIA, TIMER, HPA, and UALCAN databases, then applied bc-GenExMiner to assess the associations between expression level of

and clinicopathological features of BC. Besides, we also verified the expression of

expression in clinical BC samples using qRT-PCR. Subsequently, GEPIA, bc-GenExMiner, and TIMER databases were used to analyze the prognostic significance of

in all BC and different molecular subtypes. Finally, we conducted co-expression analysis and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Additionally, we explored the regulatory mechanism of

in BC.

Both bioinformatics analysis and experimental verification confirmed that the

expression was significa be a candidate therapeutic target or prognostic marker for luminal breast cancer.

To evaluate the survival of patients with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) and to correlate these survival rates with the histopathological parameters found in the resection specimen of the tumor.

This retrospective study was based on 27 patients that had been diagnosed and had undergone surgery in the 2nd General and Oncological Surgery Clinic of the County Emergency Hospital in Timisoara, Romania. Data about the patient group were collected from archived patient files over a period of eight years starting from January 2008. The collected data regarded age, tumor size and histopathological type and immunohistochemistry (IHC), presence or absence of tumor embolus in lymphatic or blood vessels and the presence or absence of distant metastases at the time of diagnosis. We evaluated the impact of tumor characteristics on the patients' outcome.

The 12-month survival rates postsurgery were significantly increased if tumors were <5 cm compared to those >5 cm (

=0.046), if nodal status was N0 vs N1-2 (

=0.
