Pregnancy-related complications (PRC) impact maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality and place a huge burden on healthcare systems. Thus, effective diagnostic screening strategies are crucial. Currently, national and international guidelines define patients at low risk of PRC exclusively based on their history, thus excluding the possibility of identifying patients with de novo risk (patients without a history of disease), which represents most women. In this setting, previous studies have underlined the potential contribution of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) to detect patients at risk of PRC...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a slowly progressive condition characterized by decreased kidney function, tubular injury, oxidative stress, and inflammation. CKD is a leading global health burden that is asymptomatic in early stages but can ultimately cause kidney failure. Its etiology is complex and involves dysregulated signaling pathways that lead to fibrosis. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is a central mediator in promoting transdifferentiation of polarized renal tubular epithelial cells into mesenchymal cells, resulting in irreversible kidney injury...

INTRODUCTION: Immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV) in adults has a variable disease course, with patients often developing gastrointestinal and renal involvement and thus contributing to higher mortality. Due to understudied molecular mechanisms in IgAV currently used biomarkers for IgAV visceral involvement are largely lacking. Our aim was to search for potential serum biomarkers based on the skin transcriptomic signature. METHODS: RNA sequencing analysis was conducted on skin biopsies collected from 6 treatment-naïve patients (3 skin only and 3 renal involvement) and 3 healthy controls (HC) to get insight into deregulated processes at the transcriptomic level...

INTRODUCTION: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC), the sixth most widespread malignancy in the world, accounts for 90% of all cases of oral cancer. The primary risk factors are tobacco chewing, alcohol consumption, viral infection, and genetic modifications. OSCC has a high morbidity rate due to the lack of early diagnostic methods. Nowadays, liquid biopsy plays a vital role in the initial diagnosis of oral cancer. ctNAs extracted from saliva and serum/plasma offer meaningful insights into tumor genetics and dynamics...

Condylar resorption is an aggressive and disability form of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) degenerative disease, usually non-respondent to conservative or minimally invasive therapies and often leading to surgical intervention and prostheses implantation. This condition is also one of the most dreaded postoperative complications of orthognathic surgery, with severe cartilage erosion and loss of subchondral bone volume and mineral density, associated with a painful or not inflammatory processes. Because regenerative medicine has emerged as an alternative for orthopedic cases with advanced degenerative joint disease, we conducted a phase I/IIa clinical trial (U1111-1194-6997) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous nasal septal chondroprogenitor cells...

BACKGROUND: Tracheobronchial schwannomas are extremely rare, which account for lower than 0.2% in all pulmonary tumors. In large part because of the rarity and insufficient reported clinical details, tracheobronchial schwannoma lacks guidelines or expert consensus for diagnosis and treatment, and the delay in diagnosis can range from months to years. The main treatment option is surgery. Endoscopic intervention can also be selected. An increasing number of thoracic surgery cases were performed on the robotic platforms in recent years...

BACKGROUND: Salivary gland-like tumors are extremely unusual in the breast, and their histology is very similar to primary salivary gland neoplasms. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), a common salivary gland tumor, displays an infrequent occurrence in the breast, accounting for a mere 0.2-0.3% incidence. Given its rarity, it is critical to accurately distinguish it from metastatic cases before diagnosing it as a primary breast MEC for appropriate treatment. Currently, there is no consensus on the treatment of MEC, and there is a paucity of literature highlighting the ideal treatment modality, especially for estrogen receptor (ER)-positive cancers...

Adamantinoma (AD) is a rare, slow-growing primary malignant bone tumor characterized by a biphasic morphology of clusters of epithelial cells and spindle cell osteofibrous components. A strong relationship between AD and osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) has been proposed, while fibrous dysplasia (FD) has been rarely associated with AD. We present an AD case that was followed and histologically evaluated 3 times over 6 years with different morphological patterns. The tumor in the primary biopsy and after complete resection showed classical features of AD and osteofibrous-like pattern, while the recurrent lesion presented with exclusively spindle cell morphology and was thus diagnosed as FD...

The search for reliable and easily accessible biomarkers in Parkinson's disease is receiving a growing emphasis, to detect neurodegeneration from the prodromal phase and to enforce disease-modifying therapies. Despite the need for non-invasively accessible biomarkers, the majority of the studies have pointed to cerebrospinal fluid or peripheral biopsies biomarkers, which require invasive collection procedures. Saliva represents an easily accessible biofluid and an incredibly wide source of molecular biomarkers...

Despite recent advances in cancer immunotherapy, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unresponsive due to an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, which is characterized by the abundance of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Once identified, CAF-mediated immune inhibitory mechanisms could be exploited for cancer immunotherapy. Siglec receptors are increasingly recognized as immune checkpoints, and their ligands, sialic acids, are known to be overexpressed by cancer cells. Here, we unveil a previously unrecognized role of sialic acid-containing glycans on PDAC CAFs as crucial modulators of myeloid cells...

Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) is a tumor-agnostic biomarker for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. However, MSI status is not routinely tested in prostate cancer, in part due to low prevalence and assay cost. As such, prediction of MSI status from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained whole-slide images (WSIs) could identify prostate cancer patients most likely to benefit from confirmatory testing to evaluate their eligibility for immunotherapy and need for Lynch syndrome testing. Prostate biopsies and surgical resections from prostate cancer patients referred to our institution were analyzed...

Lymphoma, the most prevalent hematologic tumor originating from the lymphatic hematopoietic system, can be accurately diagnosed using high-resolution ultrasound. Microscopic ultrasound performance enables clinicians to identify suspected tumors and subsequently obtain a definitive pathological diagnosis through puncture biopsy. However, the complex and diverse ultrasonographic manifestations of lymphoma pose challenges for accurate characterization by sonographers. To address these issues, this study proposes a Transformer-based model for generating descriptive ultrasound images of lymphoma, aiming to provide auxiliary guidance for ultrasound doctors during screening procedures...

BACKGROUND: Among oral biopsies, small incisional tissues, have to be preserved all through the processing and embedding to ensure optimal visualization of all the mucosal layers without compromise. Optimal tissue orientation is the most critical step in tissue processing for demonstration of definitive morphology in the sections, which is often more challenging in cases of minute/small or thinner sections using routine paraffin techniques to evaluate accurate diagnosis. Some modification is needed to handle these samples to get a better result...
