    Abstract Background: Multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMTs) are rare type of cancer, especially when solid tumors are the first and lymphoma is the second primary malignancy. We report a patient with heterochronous MPMTs consisting of prostate cancer and rectal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
    Case summary: We report a 77-year-old male patient diagnosed with prostate cancer who was treated with radiation therapy and one year of endocrine therapy with bicalutamide (50 mg per day) and an extended-release implant of goserelin (1/28 d). Seven years later, rectal DLBCL with lung metastases was found.
    Conclusion: Although rare, the possibility of prostate cancer combined with a double primary cancer of DLBCL can provide a deeper understanding.

    Abstract Outbreaks of viral diseases seriously jeopardize people's health and cause huge economic losses. At the same time, virology provides a new perspective for biology, molecular biology and cancer research, and it is important to study the discovered viruses with potential applications. Therefore, the development of immediate and rapid viral detection methods for the prevention and treatment of viral diseases as well as the study of viruses has attracted extensive attention from scientists. With the continuous progress of science and technology, especially in the field of bioanalysis, a series of new detection techniques have been applied to the on-site rapid detection of viruses, which has become a powerful approach for human beings to fight against viruses. In this paper, the latest research progress of rapid point-of-care detection of viral nucleic acids, antigens and antibodies is presented. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of these technologies are discussed from the perspective of practical application requirements. Finally, the problems and challenges faced by rapid viral detection methods and their development prospects are discussed.

    Abstract Background: Hypertrophic scars, commonly occurring after trauma or surgery in critical areas like the head and joints, pose significant challenges to both physical and mental health due to their impact on skin function and aesthetics. While the complex pathogenesis involves fibroblast activation and collagen deposition, effective treatments are lacking, underscoring the importance of exploring pathogenesis and targeted therapies. Hesperidin, a bioactive compound in citrus fruits with diverse health benefits, including anti-fibrotic and anti-angiogenic effects, is the focus of this study with the aim of investigating its impact on hypertrophic scar formation, given its potential to promote blood flow and improve skin microcirculation.
    Objective: This study aimed to observe the inhibitory effect of topical hesperidin on hypertrophic scars in rabbits.
    Methods: A total of 8 healthy adult New Zealand white rabbits were used to establish a rabbit hypertrophic scarring animal model. Five wounds were created on each rabbit's two ears, with three wounds on the left ear (groups A, B, and C) and two wounds on the right ear (groups D and E). After six days of wound drying postoperatively, the wounds were locally treated with medication as followed: group A, 0.1% hesperidin; group B, 1% hesperidin; group C, 1% triamcinolone acetonide; group D, Vaseline; and group E, blank control without any medication. After 28 days, the scar tissue samples were collected for histological examination.
    Results: The results showed that the scar texture of groups B and C was softer and lighter in color, and the number of fibroblasts, capillaries, and inflammatory cells in the tissue was significantly less than those in the other three groups. The hypertrophic scar indices of groups B and C were significantly smaller than those of groups A, D, and E, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There were no significant difference between groups B and C.
    Conclusion: Topical application of hesperidin demonstrated promising potential for reducing hypertrophic scar formation in rabbits.

    Abstract Sensory information transmitted to the brain activates neurons to create a series of coping behaviors. Understanding the mechanisms of neural computation and reverse engineering the brain to build intelligent machines requires establishing a robust relationship between stimuli and neural responses. Neural decoding aims to reconstruct the original stimuli that trigger neural responses. With the recent upsurge of artificial intelligence, neural decoding provides an insightful perspective for designing novel algorithms of brain-machine interface. For humans, vision is the dominant contributor to the interaction between the external environment and the brain. In this study, utilizing the retinal neural spike data collected over multi trials with visual stimuli of two movies with different levels of scene complexity, we used a neural network decoder to quantify the decoded visual stimuli with six different metrics for image quality assessment establishing comprehensive inspection of decoding. With the detailed and systematical study of the effect and single and multiple trials of data, different noise in spikes, and blurred images, our results provide an in-depth investigation of decoding dynamical visual scenes using retinal spikes. These results provide insights into the neural coding of visual scenes and services as a guideline for designing next-generation decoding algorithms of neuroprosthesis and other devices of brain-machine interface.

    Abstract Importance: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is caused by autoantibodies that disrupt the neuromuscular junction. The neonatal fragment crystallizable receptor (FcRn) antagonists, efgartigimod and rozanolixizumab, reduce immunoglobulin G (IgG) level in the circulation and alleviate symptoms in patients with generalized MG.
    Objective: To examine the efficacy and safety profile of batoclimab, a monoclonal IgG1 antibody, in patients with generalized MG.
    Design, setting, and participants: This was a multicenter randomized clinical trial conducted from September 15, 2021, to June 29, 2022, at 27 centers in China. Adult patients 18 years or older with generalized MG were screened, and those who were antibody positive were enrolled.
    Intervention: Eligible patients received batoclimab or matching placebo in addition to standard of care. Each treatment cycle consisted of 6 weekly subcutaneous injections of batoclimab, 680 mg, or matching placebo followed by 4 weeks of observation. A second treatment cycle was conducted in patients who required continuing treatment.
    Main outcome and measure: The primary outcome was sustained improvement, as defined by a 3-point or greater reduction in the Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score from baseline for 4 or more consecutive weeks in the first cycle in individuals who were positive for acetylcholine receptor or muscle-specific kinase antibodies.
    Results: A total of 178 adult patients with generalized MG were screened, 132 were randomly assigned, 131 tested positive for antibodies, and 1 tested negative for antibodies. A total of 132 patients (mean [SE] age, 43.8 [13.6] years; 88 women [67.2%]) were enrolled. The rate of sustained MG-ADL improvement in the first cycle in antibody-positive patients was 31.3% (20 of 64) in the placebo group vs 58.2% (39 of 67) in the batoclimab group (odds ratio, 3.45; 95% CI, 1.62-7.35; P = .001). The MG-ADL score diverged between the 2 groups as early as week 2. The mean (SE) maximum difference in MG-ADL score reduction occurred 1 week after the last dose (day 43, 1.7 [0.3] in the placebo group vs 3.6 [0.3] in the batoclimab group; group difference, -1.9; 95% CI, -2.8 to -1.0; nominal P < .001). The rates of treatment-related and severe treatment-emergent adverse events in patients were 36.9% (24 of 65) and 7.7% (5 of 65) in the placebo group vs 70.1% (47 of 67) and 3.0% (2 of 67) in the batoclimab group, respectively.
    Conclusions and relevance: Batoclimab increased the rate of sustained MG-ADL improvement and was well tolerated in adult patients with generalized MG. Clinical effects and the extent of IgG reduction were similar to those previously reported for efgartigimod and rozanolixizumab. Future studies of large sample size are needed to further understand the safety profile of batoclimab.
