Hypertension is associated with the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) and its progression, however, it remains unclear whether antihypertensive medicines alter PCa risk or prognosis. This systematic review evaluat...
The goal of the research was to assess the quantitative relationship between median progression-free survival (PFS) and median overall survival (OS) specifically among patients with relapsed/refractory multipl...
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common types of cancer that affects women’s reproductive system. The risk of endometrial cancer is associated with biologic, behavioral and social determinants of health (...
There is no updated national data regarding the real impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on delaying diagnosis and treatment among patients with lung, and head, and neck cancers in Brazil. This study aimed to anal...
Patients with immunocompromise were suspected to encounter a high risk for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection on early period; however, data is lacking nowadays and immune response remain unc...
The tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins have been reported to play crucial roles in various malignancies. However, the clinical significance of TRIM proteins in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains controversial. This...
Cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) is an important prognostic factor for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We aimed to develop and validate machine learning models that use ultrasound radiomi...
Immunotherapy based on the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is one of the standard treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Non-alcoholic fatty liver Disease (NAFLD) has de...
While there is an understanding of the association between the expression of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) and prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), significance specially to address the re...
In Saudi Arabia, approximately one-third of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage. Late diagnosis is often associated with a worse prognosis. Understanding the risk factors for la...
Aberrant expressions of desmoglein 2 (Dsg2) and desmocollin 2(Dsc2), the two most widely distributed desmosomal cadherins, have been found to play various roles in cancer in a context-dependent manner. Their s...
In the pathogenesis of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), inflammation plays an important role. However, it is unclear whether there is a causal link between inflammation and MPNs. We used a bidirectional, tw...
In low-income countries there is insufficient evidence on hematological, clinical, cytogenetic and molecular profiles among new CML patients. Therefore, we performed this study among newly confirmed CML patien...
Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) Therapy is an FDA-approved therapy in the first line and recurrent setting for glioblastoma. Despite Phase 3 evidence showing improved survival with TTFields, it is not uniform...
Panel gene sequencing is an established diagnostic tool for precision oncology of solid tumors, but its utility for the treatment of cancers of the digestive system in clinical routine is less well documented.
