(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2023-08-01)
Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer deaths in both sexes combined. Recent years have seen major advances in the diagnostic and treatment options for patients with non-small-cell ...
Terrestrial reproduction and parental care drive rapid evolution in the trade-off between offspring size and number across amphibians.
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2022-01-01)
The trade-off between offspring size and number is central to life history strategies. Both the evolutionary gain of parental care or more favorable habitats for offspring development are predicted to result in fewer, ...
Pre-operative Radiotherapy And Deep Inferior Epigastric Artery Perforator (DIEP) flAp study (PRADA): Aesthetic outcome and patient satisfaction at one year.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023-03-01)
INTRODUCTION: The optimal combination of radiotherapy and breast reconstruction has not yet been defined. Post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) has deleterious effects on breast reconstruction, leading to caution amongst ...

(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) is one of the most common soft tissue sarcoma subtypes and is devastating in the advanced/metastatic stage. Despite the observation of clinical responses to PD-1 inhibitors, ...
A network analysis to identify mediators of germline-driven differences in breast cancer prognosis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-01-16)
Identifying the underlying genetic drivers of the heritability of breast cancer prognosis remains elusive. We adapt a network-based approach to handle underpowered complex datasets to provide new insights into the potential ...
Antigen retrieval and clearing for whole-organ immunofluorescence by FLASH.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-11-27)
Advances in light-sheet and confocal microscopy now allow imaging of cleared large biological tissue samples and enable the 3D appreciation of cell and protein localization in their native organ environment. However, the ...

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a soft tissue sarcoma of smooth muscle origin that can arise in multiple anatomical sites and is broadly classified as extra-uterine LMS or uterine LMS. There is substantial interpatient heterogeneity ...
Overall survival with palbociclib plus endocrine therapy versus capecitabine in postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer in the PEARL study.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022-06-01)
BACKGROUND: An earlier analysis of the PEARL phase III study showed that palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) does not improve progression-free survival (PFS) over capecitabine in aromatase inhibitor-resistant, hormone ...
