Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) stands as one of the most lethal forms of cancer with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. The hallmark of PDAC is its resistance to conventional therapies, urging the exploration of targeted therapeutic approaches. In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding the oncogenic pathways driving PDAC development and progression. This article provides an overview of the clinical and preclinical strategies targeting these pathways, offering insights into promising avenues for the treatment of this deadly cancer.

An ultrasensitive DNA-biomacromolecule system or technology has the capability to detect and analyze DNA molecules with exceptional sensitivity. DNA, serving as the fundamental genetic material in living organisms, holds critical significance in numerous biological processes and finds extensive applications in diagnostics and research. Ultrasensitive DNA-biomacromolecule technologies are specifically engineered to identify and quantify minute amounts of DNA molecules within a given sample. Employing diverse detection methodologies such as fluorescence, electrochemical sensing, nanopore sequencing, or amplification techniques like polymerase chain reaction, these technologies enable scientists to achieve remarkably precise and sensitive detection of DNA molecules, even when present in exceedingly low concentrations.

Lung cancer is a complex disease with diverse molecular subtypes, and traditional treatment approaches such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy have limitations in effectively managing advanced stages of the disease. Targeted therapies, which focus on specific molecular alterations driving cancer growth, have emerged as a breakthrough in lung cancer treatment.

Targeted therapies exploit specific molecular aberrations in cancer cells, including gene mutations, amplifications, or rearrangements. These alterations may activate signaling pathways involved in tumor growth and survival. By inhibiting these aberrant molecular targets, targeted therapies aim to disrupt tumor growth and improve patient outcomes.

It emphasizes the importance of public health campaigns, education, and policy interventions in creating a societal shift towards healthier choices and reducing the burden of lung cancer.

Lung cancer is a significant public health concern, accounting for a substantial number of cancer-related deaths globally. Despite advances in treatment, prevention remains the most effective strategy to combat this disease. This article highlights the importance of promoting healthy lifestyles and creating awareness to prevent lung cancer.

Background: Breast Cancer (BC) is still a global public health issue that affects both industrialized and developing nations. It is the type of cancer that affects women most frequently in sub-Saharan African nations, particularly in Ethiopia. Despite the overwhelming difficulty, Ethiopian researchers have not yet identified the factors linked to mortality. Aside than that, there aren't many studies in this field. Therefore, the main goal of this analysis was to identify the most important factors that contributed to BC patients in Northern Ethiopia having shorter survival times.

Methods: 146 women in Northern Ethiopia who had BC were the subjects of an institutional-based retrospective cross-sectional study design that ran from September 12, 2015, to March 9, 2019. The STATA 14 program was used to conduct the statistical analysis. In order to identify predictors, a log-normal regression model and the Kaplan-Meier curve were both used.

Results: In Northern Ethiopia, the overall death rate prevalence was 18.5%. Retrospective monitoring of the chosen patients lasted an estimated 28.12 months on average. The age range of patients was 23-78 years with a median of 48 years. The multivariable Lognormal model analysis revealed, being distant metastatic ATR=0.52, CI=(0.341, 0.787), regional metastatic (ATR=0.63, (0.423, 0.924)), age (ATR=0.98, 95% CI: (0.968-0.997), baseline tumor size (ATR=0.98, 95% CI: (0.968, 0.996), clinical stage IV ATR= 0.48, 95% CI: (0.297-0.789), illiterate ATR=0.52, 95% CI: (0.325-0.823), and Rural residence ATR=0.68, 95% CI: (0.516-0.904) were found to be critical risk factors of time to death breast cancer patients.

Conclusion: The prevalence fatality rate among BC patients in Northern Ethiopia remains a serious public health issue, the research showed. Being clinical stage IV, distant and regional metastasis, illiteracy education level, baseline tumor size, rural residence, and old Age were discovered to be the most significant risk factors for patients' time to death. As a result, the government and other interested parties must address educational possibilities; raising awareness about the diagnosis of advanced disease and providing helpful advice on screening programs in a timely manner will lower the death rate and increase patient survival.
