Impact of Pelvic Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer on Global Metabolic Profiles and Microbiota-Driven Gastrointestinal Late Side Effects: A Longitudinal Observational Study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-12-01)PURPOSE: Radiation therapy to the prostate and pelvic lymph nodes (PLNRT) is part of the curative treatment of high-risk prostate cancer. Yet, the broader influence of radiation therapy on patient physiology is poorly ... -
Impact of pharmacogenomic DPYD variant guided dosing on toxicity in patients receiving fluoropyrimidines for gastrointestinal cancers in a high-volume tertiary centre.
(BMC, 2023-04-26)BACKGROUND: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is a key enzyme in the metabolism of fluoropyrimidines. Variations in the encoding DPYD gene are associated with severe fluoropyrimidine toxicity and up-front dose reductions ... -
Impact of Spontaneous Extracranial Bleeding Events on Health State Utility in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Results from the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 Trial.
(WILEY, 2017-08-11)BACKGROUND: The impact of different types of extracranial bleeding events on health-related quality of life and health-state utility among patients with atrial fibrillation is not well understood. METHODS AND RESULTS: The ... -
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the management of colorectal cancer in Denmark.
<h4>Introduction</h4>The COVID-19 pandemic has had a global impact on cancer care but the extent to which this has affected the management of colorectal cancer (CRC) in different countries is unknown. CRC management in ... -
Impact of the cystic fibrosis mutation F508del-CFTR on renal cyst formation and growth.
(AMER PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2012-10-15)In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the protein product of the gene defective in cystic fibrosis (CF), plays a crucial role in fluid accumulation, ... -
Impact of the menstrual cycle on commercial prognostic gene signatures in oestrogen receptor-positive primary breast cancer.
(SPRINGER, 2021-11-01)PURPOSE: Changes occur in the expression of oestrogen-regulated and proliferation-associated genes in oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast tumours during the menstrual cycle. We investigated if Oncotype® DX recurrence ... -
Impact of tumour histological subtype on chemotherapy outcome in advanced oesophageal cancer.
(2017-08)Aim To investigate the impact of histology on outcome in advanced oesophageal cancer treated with first-line fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy.Methods Individual patient data were pooled from three randomised phase III ... -
Impact of type of full-field digital image on mammographic density assessment and breast cancer risk estimation: a case-control study.
(2016-09-26)Background Full-field digital mammography, which is gradually being introduced in most clinical and screening settings, produces two types of images: raw and processed. However, the extent to which mammographic density ... -
Impact of Ultra High-risk Genetics on Real-world Outcomes of Transplant-eligible Multiple Myeloma Patients.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-02-01)Refined prediction of early relapse following standard-of-care (SoC) autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) could inform real-world risk-stratified post-ASCT strategies. We ... -
Impact of Variable RNA-Sequencing Depth on Gene Expression Signatures and Target Compound Robustness: Case Study Examining Brain Tumor (Glioma) Disease Progression.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018-09-13)PURPOSE: Gene expression profiling can uncover biologic mechanisms underlying disease and is important in drug development. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is routinely used to assess gene expression, but costs remain high. Sample ... -
Impairment of a distinct cancer-associated fibroblast population limits tumour growth and metastasis
Abstract Profiling studies have revealed considerable phenotypic heterogeneity in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) present within the tumour microenvironment, however, functional characterisation of different CAF subsets ... -
Impairment of a distinct cancer-associated fibroblast population limits tumour growth and metastasis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-06-10)Profiling studies have revealed considerable phenotypic heterogeneity in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) present within the tumour microenvironment, however, functional characterisation of different CAF subsets is ... -
Implementation of platform trials in the COVID-19 pandemic: A rapid review.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2022-01-01)MOTIVATION: Platform designs - master protocols that allow for new treatment arms to be added over time - have gained considerable attention in recent years. Between 2001 and 2019, 16 platform trials were initiated globally. ... -
Implementation of Whole-Body MRI (MY-RADS) within the OPTIMUM/MUKnine multi-centre clinical trial for patients with myeloma.
(SPRINGER, 2022-07-28)BACKGROUND: Whole-body (WB) MRI, which includes diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and T1-w Dixon, permits sensitive detection of marrow disease in addition to qualitative and quantitative measurements of disease and response ... -
Implementing diffusion-weighted MRI for body imaging in prospective multicentre trials: current considerations and future perspectives.
(SPRINGER, 2018-03-01)UNLABELLED: For body imaging, diffusion-weighted MRI may be used for tumour detection, staging, prognostic information, assessing response and follow-up. Disease detection and staging involve qualitative, subjective ... -
Implementing interventions to reduce antibiotic use: a qualitative study in high-prescribing practices.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-01-23)BACKGROUND: Trials have shown that delayed antibiotic prescriptions (DPs) and point-of-care C-Reactive Protein testing (POC-CRPT) are effective in reducing antibiotic use in general practice, but these were not typically ... -
