Background

• Anogenital condyloma acuminata (CA) is a benign lesion caused by low-risk HPV.

• A subset of lesions can progress histopathologically, and HIV-related immunosuppression may change their course.

Methods

• Retrospective cross-sectional study of 224 patients with histopathologically confirmed CA at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung (2023–2024).

• Clinical, pathological, and sexual behavior data analysed with chi-square/Fisher tests and logistic regression.

Key Results

• 87 patients (38.8%) were HIV-positive.

• Bisexual orientation, lesion duration over 6 months, and lesion location were independent predictors of HIV positivity.

• Histopathological progression occurred in 13 patients (5.8%), including two squamous cell carcinomas.

Discussion & Conclusion

• HIV is highly prevalent among patients with CA.

• Routine histopathological evaluation is essential to detect malignant potential early.

Background

• Research trends in endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (Endo-DCR) across Asian countries had not been systematically mapped.

Methods

• Bibliometric analysis of the Scopus database, performed in April 2024.

• Data analysed with Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer.

Key Results

• 730 articles were included; publications rose from the early 2000s, with a surge after 2010.

• India and China were the leading contributors in Asia.

• Common keywords included endoscopy, silicone tube, and epiphora; mitomycin C, mucosal flap, and success rate were rarely used.

Discussion & Conclusion

• Endo-DCR publications grew markedly between 1972 and 2023, mostly from India and China.

• Topics such as mitomycin C, mucosal flap, laser, and success rate remain under-researched, pointing to future research opportunities.

Background

• Poor prognosis in metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma may relate to stem cell-related genes.

• This study examined cancer stem cell markers in relation to metastasis extent.

Methods

• Cross-sectional analytical study of prostate specimens from Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital.

• 61 patients aged 50+ (2020–2023) grouped as high-volume disease (n = 38) or low-volume disease (n = 23).

• Immunohistochemistry for CD133, CD44, SOX2, and androgen receptor, scored using H-score.

Key Results

• ISUP grade and PSA level differed significantly between high- and low-volume groups.

• SOX2 expression was significantly associated with metastatic extent.

• The low-volume group showed higher SOX2 expression in the primary tumor.

Discussion & Conclusion

• SOX2 expression in the primary tumor is linked to metastasis extent in castration-naive prostate cancer.

• Different SOX2 levels across sites and stages may reflect the cancer cells’ systemic network.

Background

• Exercise influences gut microbiota and intestinal permeability, but the optimal intensity for gut health is unclear.

Methods

• Male Wistar rats were assigned to control, low (10 m/min), moderate (20 m/min), or high (30 m/min) exercise, five times a week for 8 weeks.

• qPCR measured A. muciniphila, F. prausnitzii, and E. coli; ZO-1 (barrier) and IL-6 (inflammation) mRNA were also assessed.

Key Results

• Moderate intensity increased beneficial A. muciniphila and F. prausnitzii.

• High intensity reduced them and sharply increased E. coli.

• ZO-1 rose at moderate and high intensity; IL-6 also rose, most strongly at high intensity.

Discussion & Conclusion

• Moderate exercise enhanced beneficial gut bacteria and barrier integrity.

• High-intensity exercise promoted E. coli growth and IL-6-mediated inflammation, showing a dose-dependent effect.

Background

• Inflammation plays a central role in ovarian cancer, and IL-6-secreting tumors may carry altered genetic profiles.

• Studies combining IL-6 measurement with genomic profiling are lacking.

Methods

• 45 women undergoing surgery for ovarian tumors (18 malignant, 19 benign, 8 borderline).

• IL-6 was measured in serum and tumor fluid by ELISA.

• High-IL-6 cancers underwent whole-genome sequencing (ONT).

Key Results

• IL-6 levels were consistent between serum and tumor fluid.

• Malignant tumors secreted significantly more IL-6 than benign ones (p = 0.027).

• IL-6-secreting cancers showed alterations in genes including MTRF1, IL-10, IL-6, APC, PAX8, PTGS2, and PACERR.

Discussion & Conclusion

• Ovarian malignancy is marked by high secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

• Inflammation may disrupt the genetic landscape, offering candidate biomarkers and therapeutic targets for future validation.
