Philippine Clinical Practice Guidelines for Periodic Health Examination: Screening for Neoplastic Diseases. (PubMed, Acta Med Philipp)
Through a comprehensive and systematic search of the best available evidence, the Neoplastic Diseases Task Force developed 20 recommendations on screening and risk factor assessment for 10 specific questions on neoplastic diseases. These recommendations serve as guidance on screening neoplastic diseases at the primary care level.

Adjuvant targeted therapy in high-risk stage IB epidermal growth factor receptor-mutant lung cancer: Role of ground-glass opacity components. (PubMed, JTCVS Open)
Adjuvant targeted therapy did not improve long-term survival in stage IB EGFR-mutant NSCLC with high-risk features, although it prolonged DFS in pure-solid tumors. A de-escalation strategy may be considered for postoperative management, particularly in part-solid tumors.

Silencing SGO2 by Oxamic Acid Dissociates Glycolysis and BRCA1-Mediated DNA Repair to Improve the Chemosensitivity of Lung Adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Exploration (Beijing))
In addition, SGO2 compromised the cisplatin (CDDP) sensitivity of LUAD in vitro and in vivo...Silencing SGO2 with OA improved LUAD chemo sensitivity. Our work highlights the potential of SGO2 as a target for therapeutic intervention and OA as a food-bioactive compound for LUAD treatment.

Case Report: The "atoll sign": a case series on an unusual radiological pattern of immune-mediated pneumonitis. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Despite pembrolizumab discontinuation, both patients maintained durable systemic disease control. These cases emphasize the importance of recognizing uncommon radiological patterns such as the atoll sign in patients receiving ICIs, highlighting the need for vigilance even after prolonged therapy and underscoring the potential for sustained oncologic benefit despite treatment discontinuation.

Dual-DNA nanoball-mediated 3D catalytic hairpin assembly for in situ imaging of miRNA-155 in living cells. (PubMed, Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc)
This "split-loading, activation-after-entry" strategy decouples probe delivery from activation, minimizing background leakage, while the rigid nanoball architecture provides robust nuclease protection. Using lung cancer cells as a model, we demonstrate that DNB-3DCHA enables high-contrast, spatiotemporally controlled in situ imaging of miR-155 with excellent specificity and signal-to-noise ratio, offering a promising tool for cancer diagnostics.

Prevalence and characteristics of NTRK fusions in 25,946 patients with non-small cell lung cancer. (PubMed, Lung Cancer)
Pan-TRK IHC has a false-positive rate of ∼4%, particularly in squamous cell carcinomas, underscoring the need for confirmatory NGS to validate IHC findings and assess fusion functionality. Functional NTRK1/2/3 fusions remain exceedingly rare in NSCLC, with a detection rate of 0.03% across our combined cohorts.

Effects of Drugs for the Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Infection on the Expression of Angiotensin-converting Enzyme 2 in vitro. (PubMed, Curr Neuropharmacol)
Data suggest that drugs used in the treatment of MS can modify ACE2 expression; specifically, fingolimod reduces ACE2 expression and may have a protective role against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Single-cell-marker-based subtyping and multi-level analyses uncover the prognostic effects, dysregulations and therapeutic indicative potential of an eight-gene signature in lung adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Cancer Cell Int)
Subtyping based on single-cell derived marker genes and multi-level analyses provide a comprehensive understanding of LUAD biology. The distinct features of C1 and C2 subtypes highlight the need for tailored therapies. The eight-gene signature may serve as a novel prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic indicator.

Impact of Thyroid Transcription Factor-1 Expression on Outcomes of Platinum-Based Chemoimmunotherapy in Advanced or Recurrent Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. (PubMed, Thorac Cancer)
Platinum/PEM/Pembro may be a therapeutic option for TTF-1-negative non-sq NSCLC with good PS and adenocarcinoma histology, although careful management of irAE is required.

Tumour-macrophage crosstalk initiated by NFIC/METTL3 negative feedback loop via exosomal miR-194-5p promotes NSCLC progression. (PubMed, Clin Transl Med)
NFIC/METTL3 negative feedback loop in NSCLC cells suppresses exosomal miR-194-5p via m6A methylation; reduced miR-194-5p deepresses ZNF106 in macrophages, promoting M2 polarization and IL-6 secretion; Macrophage-derived IL-6 activates JAK2/STAT3 in NSCLC cells to upregulate METTL3, forming a positive feedback loop.
