Summary: MR-detected mandibular nerve involvement (MNI) is a significant prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) in T4 stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients and it has valuable implications for induction chemotherapy (IC) administration. This retrospective study included 792 biopsy-proven NPC patients without metastasis. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that MR-detected MNI was strongly associated with OS, and IC treatment had independent favorable effects on OS.

Summary: The study evaluated the impact of prevertebral space involvement (PSI) and tumor extension on prognosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Results show that PSI is an independent predictor of poor prognosis, with BPMI patients having lower survival rates than PMI patients, and NPC with PSI should be classified as T4 stage.

Summary: The study examines the prognostic value of clinical and radiomic parameters derived from PET/CT and MR for predicting survival among NPC patients. The results indicate that combined radiomic signatures significantly improve survival prognostication when combined with baseline clinical and MR-based radiomic features.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of carotid space involvement (CSI) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and propose a treatment strategy. The study found that CSI was an independent negative prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) in NPC patients without induction chemotherapy (ICT), and it might serve as an imaging marker for identifying eligible candidates for ICT.

Summary: Needle electromyography (EMG) genioglossus involvement is a prognostic factor in ALS, indicating shorter survival time, earlier onset of swallowing difficulties, and severity of dysarthria. Clinical bulbar lower motor neuron (LMN) signs only lead to earlier onset of swallowing difficulties, while EMG masseter abnormalities are not statistically significant in predicting clinical milestones.

Summary: This study analyzed the disparities in positive results and dissemination patterns of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in global immuno-oncology (IO). The results showed that positive trials were predominantly sponsored by pharmaceutical companies and focused on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and multiple IO therapies. Factors such as recent trial start year, upfront registration, large sample size, strict criteria, and survival endpoints were associated with positive results. Trials from Mainland China had a faster publication timeline of positive results but lacked study diversity or full reporting of negative results compared to US and multinational trials. Positive trials had a shorter publication process, more secondary manuscripts, and better dissemination in high-quality journals compared to negative trials. The study suggests improvements in upfront registration, procedural integrity, and inclusion of rival trials reporting negative results for future IO-related reviews.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate risk stratification and select beneficiaries from concurrent chemotherapy (CCRT) combined with induction chemotherapy (IC) in elderly Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Prognostic nomograms were generated based on clinical characteristics and serum biomarkers. The results showed that IC + CCRT significantly improved 5-year survival rates in the high-risk group, specifically in patients younger than 70 years old. TPF and three IC cycles were recommended for treatment.

Summary: This study reveals that the elevated METTL5/TRMT112 and their mediated m6A modification at the 18S rRNA 1832 site (m6A1832) promote oncogenic transformation in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The loss of catalytic activity of METTL5 abolishes its oncogenic functions. Mechanistically, the m6A1832 modification facilitates the assembly of 80S ribosome and promotes the translation of mRNAs with 50 terminal oligopyrimidine (50 TOP) motifs. Furthermore, METTL5 enhances the translation of HSF4b to activate HSP90B1 transcription, which prevents oncogenic mutant p53 (mutp53) protein from degradation and facilitates NPC tumorigenesis and chemoresistance. Overall, this study uncovers an innovative mechanism of rRNA epigenetic modification in cancer.
