Racial and ethnic disparities in treatment-related heart disease mortality among US breast cancer survivors.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2023-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Racial and ethnic disparities in heart disease mortality by initial treatment type among breast cancer survivors have not been well described. METHODS: We included 739 557 women diagnosed with first primary ...
A CT-based radiomics classification model for the prediction of histological type and tumour grade in retroperitoneal sarcoma (RADSARC-R): a retrospective multicohort analysis.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2023-11-01)
BACKGROUND: Retroperitoneal sarcomas are tumours with a poor prognosis. Upfront characterisation of the tumour is difficult, and under-grading is common. Radiomics has the potential to non-invasively characterise the ...
Pineoblastoma segregates into molecular sub-groups with distinct clinico-pathologic features: a Rare Brain Tumor Consortium registry study.
(SPRINGER, 2020-02-01)
Pineoblastomas (PBs) are rare, aggressive pediatric brain tumors of the pineal gland with modest overall survival despite intensive therapy. We sought to define the clinical and molecular spectra of PB to inform new treatment ...
The impact of restricted length of treatment field and anthropometric factors on selection of head and neck cancer patients for treatment on the MR-Linac.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2020-07-01)
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the impact of a restricted craniocaudal (CC) field length of <20 cm on the selection of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients who can be treated on the MR-Linac using a single isocentre ...
Disease consequences of higher adiposity uncoupled from its adverse metabolic effects using Mendelian randomisation.
(eLIFE SCIENCES PUBL LTD, 2022-01-25)
BACKGROUND: Some individuals living with obesity may be relatively metabolically healthy, whilst others suffer from multiple conditions that may be linked to adverse metabolic effects or other factors. The extent to which ...
Relationship of self-reported body size and shape with risk for prostate cancer: A UK case-control study.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2020-09-17)
INTRODUCTION: Previous evidence has suggested a relationship between male self-reported body size and the risk of developing prostate cancer. In this UK-wide case-control study, we have explored the possible association ...
Patterns of Care, Tolerability, and Safety of the First Cohort of Patients Treated on a Novel High-Field MR-Linac Within the MOMENTUM Study: Initial Results From a Prospective Multi-Institutional Registry.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-11-15)
PURPOSE: High-field magnetic resonance-linear accelerators (MR-Linacs), linear accelerators combined with a diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner and online adaptive workflow, potentially give rise to novel ...
Analysis of rare disruptive germline mutations in 2135 enriched BRCA-negative breast cancers excludes additional high-impact susceptibility genes.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer has a significant heritable basis, of which ∼60% remains unexplained. Testing for BRCA1/BRCA2 offers useful discrimination of breast cancer risk within families, and identification of additional ...
Hypofractionated breast radiotherapy for 1 week versus 3 weeks (FAST-Forward): 5-year efficacy and late normal tissue effects results from a multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised, phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-05-23)
BACKGROUND: We aimed to identify a five-fraction schedule of adjuvant radiotherapy (radiation therapy) delivered in 1 week that is non-inferior in terms of local cancer control and is as safe as an international standard ...
DNA methylation of the long intergenic noncoding RNA 299 gene in triple-negative breast cancer: results from a prospective study.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-16)
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer subtype associated with a high rate of recurrence and poor prognosis. Recently we identified a hypermethylation in the long noncoding RNA 299 (LINC00299) ...
