Encapsulated Papillary Carcinoma Membrane Characteristics

Encapsulated Papillary Carcinoma Membrane Characteristics Overview This study focused on encapsulated papillary carcinoma (EPC), a type of breast carcinoma characterized by a thick fibrous capsule-like structure surrounding the tumor, often interpreted as a thickened basement membrane (BM). The primary objective was to investigate the geometric properties of the EPC capsule and determine

Ibrutinib Treatment In Waldenström Macroglobulinemia

Ibrutinib Treatment In Waldenström Macroglobulinemia Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) is a rare type of non-hogdkins lymphoma driven by the gene mutation MYD88L265P. Ibrutinib, the first approved treatment, is effective but can cause side effects. A study found that 27% of WM patients needed to reduce Ibrutinib doses due to side effects like

Eyelid Carcinoma (SGC): A Tool To Predict Recurrence

Eyelid Carcinoma (SGC): A Tool To Predict Recurrence Overview Eyelid sebaceous gland carcinoma (SGC) is a highly malignant condition with a significant recurrence risk. This study aimed to create a predictive nomogram for SGC recurrence based on risk factors.   A retrospective study involving 391 patients from one hospital (304) and grassroots hospitals (87)

Stomach Cancer: A Meta-Analysis Of Robotic Surgery Complications

Stomach Cancer: A Meta-Analysis Of Robotic Surgery Complications Gastric or stomach cancer prevalence varies significantly around the world, with higher rates in Asia, Africa, South America, and Eastern Europe. However, in the United States, stomach cancer is a growing concern due to its increased occurrence in the elderly population and its

Postoperative Delirium In The NICU: Hormonal Risk Factors

Postoperative Delirium In The NICU: Hormonal Risk Factors In neurosurgery, pituitary adenoma ranks as the second most common brain tumor. Recent advances in endoscope-assisted transsphenoidal surgery have revolutionized tumor resection, reducing complications. However, postoperative complications, particularly endocrine-related issues, remain critical in neurosurgical intensive care units (NICUs). Notably, postoperative delirium, intricately linked

IGF-1 Levels In Pediatric Low-Grade Gliomas

IGF-1 Levels In Pediatric Low-Grade Gliomas Overview This study investigated elevated insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels in children with low-grade glioma (LGG). Elevated IGF-1 levels in LGG are not well understood. The research aimed to determine the prevalence, connections with growth, body mass index (BMI), pituitary function, and tumor behavior in

Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Survivors: Secondary Malignancy Risk

Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Survivors: Secondary Malignancy Risk The number of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases is rising, with an estimated 81,560 new diagnoses in the US in 2021. As survival rates improve, more NHL survivors face potential late effects, including secondary malignancies (SM) linked to treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. This research revisits

Uterine Leiomyosarcoma: A Meta-Analysis Of Systemic Therapy Effectiveness

Uterine Leiomyosarcoma: Systemic Therapy Effectiveness Overview Uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) is an aggressive type of mesenchymal tumor linked to a bleak prognosis. The primary treatment for advanced uLMS is systemic chemotherapy, although the most effective regimen remains uncertain. To address this, we conducted an extensive analysis, including both meta-analysis and metaregression, aiming to

Bedside Pediatric Early Warning System: A Validation Study

Bedside Pediatric Early Warning System: A Validation Study Overview   Conducted in an 80-bed pediatric oncology specialty hospital in the Netherlands, this research was initiated to evaluate the predictive utility of the adapted Bedside Pediatric Early Warning System (BedsidePEWS) score. This study aimed to explore the correlation of this score with unanticipated transfers

Massage Therapy For Oncology Patient Pain

Massage Therapy For Oncology Patient Pain Overview This study aimed to investigate the impact of massage therapy (MT) as a nonpharmacologic approach for addressing various symptoms experienced by children, adolescents, and young adults with hematologic and/or oncologic conditions. The researchers focused on two patient groups: those with sickle cell disease (SCD) and
