Pathological And Molecular Parameters Show No Significant Association With Residual Cancer Burden In Breast Carcinoma, Fishella Aprista Rahmanti, Willy Sandhika, Lusiani Tjandra

Folia Medica Indonesiana

Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) is a validated scoring system that quantifies the amount of tumour remaining after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer, providing prognostic information beyond binary outcomes, such as pathologic complete response (pCR). pCR represents a binary endpoint within various NAC response-grading systems, including RCB, rather than a separate reporting system. This study aimed to assess clinicopathological and molecular predictors of RCB class, including histological grade, histopathological type, molecular subtype, and Ki-67 index. A retrospective study was conducted on 68 patients diagnosed with breast carcinoma who underwent NAC. Descriptive statistics and Pearson, Spearman, and chi-square tests were used …

Cytomegalovirus Associated Enterocolitis And Skin Eruption: A Pediatric Case Misdiagnosed As Acute Appendicitis, Zeynep Busra Balik, Gulsen Akoglu

Journal of Pediatric Infectious Diseases

We present a case of an immunocompetent 2-year-old boy, with cytomegalovirus-associated enterocolitis and petechial skin eruption, initially misdiagnosed as acute appendicitis. Despite abdominal pain, diarrhea and a rash for 15 days, diagnostic laparoscopy revealed no surgical pathology. Dermatological examination identified perifollicular petechiae, leading to a diagnosis of cytomegalovirus infection, which was confirmed by serology. This case emphasizes the importance of considering viral infections in pediatric patients with gastrointestinal and dermatological symptoms. It also highlights the diagnostic value of cutaneous findings in cytomegalovirus infection.

Lipid Biomarkers Predict Pneumonia Risk In Children With Influenza-Mycoplasma Co-Infections: A Retrospective Cohort Study, Kai-Jing Zhang, Xin-Feng Zhao, Xiao-Juan Lv, Xiao-Hui Huang, Jing Huang, Yan-Yan Zhu

Journal of Pediatric Infectious Diseases

Objective: This study evaluates the prognostic value of high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) levels for pneumonia risk in children co-infected with influenza and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 248 children with influenza-MP co-infection (January 1, 2020–October 30, 2024). Participants were grouped into pneumonia (P, n=195) and non-pneumonia (NP, n=53) based on chest imaging. Statistical comparisons of clinical parameters (WBC, lymphocytes, CRP, lipids) utilized Mann-Whitney U and chi-square tests. Variables with P<0.1 were included in logistic binary regression to identify independent risk factors. ROC analysis assessed diagnostic performance. Results: Significant differences were observed in lymphocytes (L), CRP, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C levels between pneumonia and non-pneumonia groups (P < 0.05). CRP, HDL-C, and LDL-C were identified as independent risk factors for determining whether influenza-MP co-infections were complicated by pneumonia. CRP and LDL-C levels were risk factors associated with pneumonia risk (OR > 1), whereas HDL-C levels showed a strong protective factor association (OR < 1). The ROC curve analysis showed that the combined area under the curve (AUC) for HDL-C + LDL-C (0.878) was significantly higher than the AUCs for CRP + HDL-C (0.809), CRP + LDL-C (0.753), HDL-C (0.807), LDL-C (0.737), and CRP (0.601). The clinical DCA shows that HDL-C + LDL-C has a higher diagnostic value than CRP + HDL-C, CRP + LDL-C, HDL-C, LDL-C, or CRP alone. Conclusion: HDL-C and LDL-C levels independently predict pneumonia progression in influenza-MP co-infected children, with dual-marker assessment enhancing diagnostic accuracy.
