- The recent advantage obtained by next generation sequencing allows a depth investigation of a new “old” kind of noncoding transcript, the circular RNAs. Circular RNAs are nontranslated RNAs, typically nonpolyadenylated, with a resistance to exonucleases that gives them the ability to be more stable than the common linear RNA isoforms. We used a bioinformatic detection tool (CIRCexplorer) to research predictive circRNAs from the next generation sequenced data of five samples of ductal in situ carcinoma (DCIS) and matched adjacent invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Furthermore, we also investigated the circular RNAs expressed in MCF7, an invasive breast ductal carcinoma cell line. We described the genomic context of the predicted circular RNAs and we address the hypothetical possible functional roles. This study showed a perspective of a panel of predictive circRNAs identified and the function that circRNAs could exert.

- The diagnostic evaluation of acute chest pain has been augmented in recent years by advances in the sensitivity and precision of cardiac troponin assays, new biomarkers, improvements in imaging modalities, and release of new clinical decision algorithms. This progress has enabled physicians to diagnose or rule-out acute myocardial infarction earlier after the initial patient presentation, usually in emergency department settings, which may facilitate prompt initiation of evidence-based treatments, investigation of alternative diagnoses for chest pain, or discharge, and permit better utilization of healthcare resources. A non-trivial proportion of patients fall in an indeterminate category according to rule-out algorithms, and minimal evidence-based guidance exists for the optimal evaluation, monitoring, and treatment of these patients. The Cardiovascular Round Table of the ESC proposes approaches for the optimal application of early strategies in clinical practice to improve patient care following the review of recent advances in the early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. The following specific 'indeterminate' patient categories were considered: (i) patients with symptoms and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin <99th percentile; (ii) patients with symptoms and high-sensitivity troponin <99th percentile but above the limit of detection; (iii) patients with symptoms and high-sensitivity troponin >99th percentile but without dynamic change; and (iv) patients with symptoms and high-sensitivity troponin >99th percentile and dynamic change but without coronary plaque rupture/erosion/dissection. Definitive evidence is currently lacking to manage these patients whose early diagnosis is 'indeterminate' and these areas of uncertainty should be assigned a high priority for research.
