Background : Among females, breast cancer has the highest incidence and is the leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Aim : In contrast to invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), the objective of this research is to examine how invasive duct carcinoma (IDC) is managed. Patient and methods : This examined 200 women who were registered in the Al-Azhar University Hospitals database between January 2020 and December 2022 and were diagnosed with nonmetastatic invasive breast cancer. The current investigation included cases with IDC or ILC histology based on the WHO classi fi cation ' s criteria. Results : The patient met the criteria for M0 illness by undergoing primary curative breast surgery, of which 170 (85%) were classi fi ed as IDC and 17 (8.5%) as ILC. The remaining patients were ruled out of further research due to their diagnosis of different histological subtypes, 13 of which had mixed ILC and IDC. Cases with ILC were offered mastectomy more often than those with IDC (79.4 vs. 67.7%). ILC cases had lower levels of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positivity (9 vs. 18%) but higher levels of estrogen receptor-positive illness (83 vs. 70%) and progesterone receptor-positive disease (75 vs. 60%) when compared with IDC individuals. Conclusion : ILC has unique biologic and prognostic characteristics that may call for various treatment modalities.

Background : Obesity affects both children and adults and is a major burden on world health. Focusing on childhood obesity is crucial to preventing its problems and further development as adults. Around the world, the prevalence of this nutritional condition among children has risen to alarming levels. Aim and objectives : To evaluate interleukin 6 (IL6) as a predictive in fl ammatory cytokine and its relation to BMI and lipid pro fi le, in obese and overweight children identifying those more likely to develop further complications, and also to assess the correlation between highly sensitive C-reactive protein as an in fl ammatory marker and obesity. The study also aims to evaluate the usability of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) in the detection of subclinical in fl ammation in obese children. Patients and methods : Case e control study best describes this research. Ninety kids of both sexes participated in the study; their ages ranged from 6 to 12 years. The study was carried out on outpatients and inpatients at the Pediatric Department at Al-Zahraa University Hospital. Results : Among the groups that were compared, there was a discernible dissimilarity in anthropometric measurements, triceps skinfold thickness, correlation between BMI and (PLR, NLR, IL6, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) and glycated hemoglobin, and lipid pro fi le except for low-density lipoprotein. Conclusion : Children who are overweight or obese tend to have higher NLR and PLR ratios than children who are a healthy weight. Children who are overweight or obese have higher levels of in fl ammatory mediators including high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and IL6 compared with the healthy
背景:肥胖症既影响儿童也影响成年人,是世界健康的一大负担。关注儿童肥胖问题对于预防肥胖问题和成年后的进一步发展至关重要。在世界各地,儿童肥胖症的发病率已上升到令人担忧的程度。目的和目标:在肥胖和超重儿童中评估白细胞介素 6(IL6)作为一种预测性诱导细胞因子及其与体重指数(BMI)和血脂的关系,以确定哪些儿童更有可能患上进一步的并发症,同时评估作为诱导指标的高敏 C 反应蛋白与肥胖之间的相关性。该研究还旨在评估中性粒细胞对淋巴细胞(NLR)和血小板对淋巴细胞(PLR)在检测肥胖儿童亚临床炎症中的可用性。患者与方法:病例与对照研究最能说明这项研究。90名男女儿童参加了研究,他们的年龄在6至12岁之间。研究对象是扎赫拉大学医院儿科的门诊病人和住院病人。结果:在进行比较的群体中,人体测量值、肱三头肌皮褶厚度、体重指数与(PLR、NLR、IL6 和高敏 C 反应蛋白)和糖化血红蛋白之间的相关性、除低密度脂蛋白外的血脂指标均存在明显差异。结论:超重或肥胖儿童的 NLR 和 PLR 比率往往高于体重健康的儿童。与健康儿童相比,超重或肥胖儿童的高敏 C 反应蛋白和 IL6 等炎症介质水平较高。
