P1.059. Calcium-Channel Blocker Use and Survival After Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced ESCC
Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Adjuvant and Neo-Adjuvant Therapies Background Calcium-channel blockers (CCBs) are commonly prescribed for cardiovascular disease. Beyond hemodynamic effects, experimental studies suggest that CCBs may modulate tumor biology through interference...

P1.057. Early Recurrence After Neoadjuvant Therapy and Esophagectomy for Locally Advanced ESCC
Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Adjuvant and Neo-Adjuvant Therapies Background Despite improved interventions with radical esophagectomy accompanied by perioperative systematic therapy, recurrence remains frequent in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). A...

P1.245. Real-Time AI-Based Thoracic Duct Recognition During Thoracoscopic Esophagectomy
Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – technique Background Thoracic duct injury during thoracoscopic esophagectomy may result in postoperative chylothorax, a serious complication associated with increased morbidity. However, intraoperative id...

Background: Humoral immunity targeting hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) is critical for viral clearance. However, the phenotypic, repertoire, and metabolic features of HBsAg-specific B cells in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remain incompletely defined. Methods: HBsAg-s...

Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of asthma: from bench to bedside
Asthma is a heterogeneous chronic airway disease arising from a complex interplay of genetic susceptibility and environmental exposures. Key pathobiological features include dysregulated immune responses (particularly type 2 inflammation), structural airway remodeling, and mucus...
