Whole-genome Sequencing of Reed-sternberg Cells Identifies Outcome Determinants in Hodgkin Lymphoma

This study utilized whole-genome sequencing of purified Hodgkin and Reed–Sternberg cells from 76 patients to identify specific somatic copy number variations and mutational signatures linked to clinical outcomes, ultimately developing the TRACER-HL model to effectively stratify relapse risk in classical Hodgkin lymphoma.

How to Translate Early Detection of NAFLD in Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome: A Machine-Learning Model Integrating the Atherogenic Index of Plasma

This study demonstrates that an interpretable meta-analytical multi-task learning model utilizing the dynamic atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) outperforms traditional methods in predicting early cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome transitions in patients with NAFLD, establishing AIP as a superior predictive biomarker for proactive clinical risk interception.

Real-world implementation of a ventilation feedback device during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a population-based observational study from a French prehospital system

This population-based observational study from a French prehospital system reveals a significant gap between protocol and real-world usage of ventilation feedback devices during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, with only 28.9% utilization despite a mandate, while exploratory data suggest potential clinical benefits that warrant further investigation with robust implementation strategies.

Epileptic Seizures at Presentation in Surgically Resected NSCLC Brain Metastases: Prevalence, Predictors, and Prognostic Significance

In a retrospective study of 299 patients with surgically resected NSCLC brain metastases, seizures at presentation occurred in 25.1% of cases and were independently predicted by younger age, immunotherapy use, and absence of intracranial pressure symptoms, yet while seizure occurrence alone did not impact overall survival, a composite score incorporating seizure status along with age, tumor count, and immunotherapy use successfully stratified patients into distinct survival tiers.

STK19 inhibition engages PANoptosis-like inflammatory cell death through NRAS-associated signaling in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This study demonstrates that inhibiting STK19 with ZT-12-037-01 exerts potent anti-leukemic effects in Acute Myeloid Leukemia by suppressing NRAS-associated pro-survival signaling and inducing a PANoptosis-like inflammatory cell death program, thereby reducing tumor burden and prolonging survival in preclinical models.

Early Cardiopulmonary Adaptation Following Arteriovenous Fistula Creation in Pre- Dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease Patients: A Prospective Echocardiographic Study

This prospective echocardiographic study demonstrates that arteriovenous fistula creation in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients induces early cardiopulmonary adaptation characterized by increased left ventricular volume loading, augmented cardiac output, and elevated pulmonary pressures while preserving systolic function, with proximal fistulas associated with a greater pulmonary hemodynamic burden.

HoLEP for Large and Mega Glands: Real-World Outcomes and Evidence of Size-Enhanced Efficiency

This study demonstrates that Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) for mega glands (>200 mL) is not only safe with comparable short-term outcomes to large glands (120–200 mL) but also exhibits superior enucleation speed and energy efficiency, suggesting the procedure may be size-enhanced rather than merely size-independent.
