Colorectal Cancer: A Nomogram To Predict Metastases

Colorectal Cancer: A Nomogram To Predict Metastases Overview This study addresses the imperative task of identifying risk factors associated with distant metastasis in early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC), aiming to enhance understanding of its etiology and facilitate preventive treatments. The research, utilizing data from EOCRC patients in the SEER database (2010-2015), seeks to

Tongue Tumor Staging Using Artificial Intelligence

Tongue Tumor Staging Using Artificial Intelligence Overview This study addresses the critical issue of misdiagnosis in determining the stage of tongue tumor development, which can lead to varied treatment approaches and hinder patients from receiving appropriate care. The research aims to establish an automatic recognition system for different stages of tongue tumors,

Busulfan Exposure And Malignancy Risk

Busulfan Exposure And Malignancy Risk Overview The occurrence of secondary malignancies linked to busulfan exposure is deemed low but remains insufficiently characterized. Given the rising use of this alkylating agent in pre-gene therapy conditioning for nonmalignant hematologic disorders, a more precise understanding of busulfan's potential contribution to subsequent malignancy risk is essential.

Insulin Resistance Used To Assess Malignancies In Women

Insulin Resistance Used To Assess Malignancies In Women Overview In this prospective multicenter real-world cohort study involving 571 patients diagnosed with female reproductive system malignancies, the prognostic significance of insulin resistance (IR) and systemic inflammation was investigated. The cohort, with a mean age of 52 years, predominantly comprised individuals with cervical cancer

Thromboembolism Risk In Pregnant Oncology Patients

Thromboembolism Risk In Pregnant Oncology Patients Overview This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in pregnant individuals with active malignancy compared to those without malignancy. The study, based on seven cohort studies encompassing 5,928 individuals with both active malignancy and pregnancy, yielded the following key findings:  

Testicular Cancer And Psychological Distress

Testicular Cancer And Psychological Distress In 2020, testicular cancer (TC) affected 74,458 men, representing 0.4% of global cancer cases. Predominant among young men of European descent, TC's primary treatment involves orchiectomy, boasting a substantial 95% 5-year survival rate.  However, the aftermath includes enduring psychological distress, with 20% of men grappling with emotional

Spontaneous Bladder Rupture In Bladder Cancer Patients
