Taken together, these findings suggest that the phosphorylation of NP may be a critical factor that regulates the temperature sensitivity of influenza A virus.Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains the most aggressive cluster of all breast cancers, which is due to its rapid progression, high probabilities of early recurrence, and distant metastasis resistant to standard treatment. Following the advances in cancer genomics and transcriptomics that can illustrate the comprehensive profiling of this heterogeneous disease, it is now possible to identify different subclasses of TNBC according to both intrinsic signals and extrinsic microenvironment, which have a huge influence on predicting response to established therapies and picking up novel therapeutic targets for each cluster. In this review, we summarize basic characteristics and critical subtyping systems of TNBC, and particularly discuss newly found prospective targets and relevant medications, which were proved promising in clinical trials, thus shedding light on the future development of precision treatment strategies.

Currently, bariatric surgery is the most effective intervention for treating morbid obesity and its complications. Smoking cessation is likely to improve smoking-related comorbidities and decrease postoperative complications. This study evaluated the smoking behaviour and thoughts about smoking cessation of patients more than 18months after bariatric surgery.

A cross-sectional study was performed in patients who underwent bariatric surgery from July 2012 to December 2013. A questionnaire was used to evaluate smoking status, thoughts about the health benefits of cessation and characteristics of previous quit attempts in current and former smokers. Finally, actual bariatric surgery outcomes were evaluated in current, former and never smokers.

Six hundred nine patients (response rate 52.0%) were included. Of them, 101 (16.6%) patients were current smokers, 239 (39.2%) former smokers and 269 (44.2%) patients were lifetime never smokers. Compared with former smokers, current smokers were less aware of the beof successful cessations.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the preferred bariatric procedure in many countries. However, there is one shortcoming of LSG in the long-term follow-up, and this is the onset of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) and erosive esophagitis (EE). Conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is considered an option in patients unresponsive to medical therapy. Currently, there is no evidence of EE improvement or resolution after conversion surgery. In this study, we objectively evaluate the effectiveness of RYGB in management of EE with upper endoscopy (EGD) to identify the significant variables in patients with GERD symptoms post LSG refractory to medical therapy and require conversion surgery.

Over a period of 11years (2008-2019) at Singapore General Hospital, we retrospectively reviewed a prospectively collected database of a cohort of patients whom had conversion surgery to RYGB for refractory GERD and EE after LSG. Patient's endoscopic findings and demographic and anthropometric datctory to medical therapy. Ninety-three percent of our patients achieved complete resolution of their GERD symptoms and significant improvement of erosive esophagitis with significant weight loss after conversion. This study has important implications as LSG is increasingly being performed and a proportion of these will need revision surgery for various reasons, particularly GERD which is extremely prevalent.

Conversion to RYGB after LSG is clinically relevant and may be a feasible solution if patients have ongoing GERD refractory to medical therapy. Ninety-three percent of our patients achieved complete resolution of their GERD symptoms and significant improvement of erosive esophagitis with significant weight loss after conversion. This study has important implications as LSG is increasingly being performed and a proportion of these will need revision surgery for various reasons, particularly GERD which is extremely prevalent.

Following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), positive alterations are observed in gut microbiota and intestinal peptides. Previous studies demonstrated similar alterations observed in cases when pre-probiotics are used without surgery. The aim of this trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of early use of pre-probiotics after RYGB.

The operation and follow-up of the patients were performed at Istanbul University Medical Faculty. Thirty-two patients who had undergone RYGB were randomized to pre-probiotic group (PreProBG, n = 16; 200g/day yogurt plus 10g/day inulin+oligofructose) and probiotic group (ProBG, n = 16; 200g/day yogurt only) for 6months. TAK-242 Blood samples (glucose, insulin, A1c, GLP-1, PYY), anthropometric measurements, and appetite ratings have been evaluated at baseline and 3 (m3) and 6 (m6) months after RYGB.

Initial anthropometric measurements and appetite ratings decreased significantly after surgery and there were no significant differences between the groups. The decrease of area under the ceasurements but also in appetite ratings affects negatively, contrary to expectations. In summary, it should be investigated with new studies that use of pre-probiotics in the late postoperative period may be more effective in patients with weak insulin and incretin response and therefore insufficient weight loss.

Physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep have been linked to the likelihood of maintaining healthy body weight. This study aimed to determine objectively measured movement behaviors before and up to 18months after bariatric surgery and to investigate whether preoperative levels of these movement behaviors and potential changes of these behaviors were associated with changes in body weight and boy composition.

Accelerometer determined total physical activity, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep (for six consecutive days and seven nights) were assessed approximately 3months and 1-2weeks before surgery as well as 6 and 18months after surgery (n = 41). Body weight and body composition (waist circumference, fat mass, and fat-free mass) were determined at each visit.

Mean weight loss 18months after surgery was 42.0 ± 1.9kg. There were no pre- to postoperative improvements in physical activity, sedentary behavior, or sleep. However, greater increases in levels of total physical activity and time spent in MVPA from 3months before to 6months after surgery predicted better weight loss and larger reductions in fat mass and waist circumference.
