SNP interaction pattern identifier (SIPI): an intensive search for SNP-SNP interaction patterns.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2017-03-15)
MOTIVATION: Testing SNP-SNP interactions is considered as a key for overcoming bottlenecks of genetic association studies. However, related statistical methods for testing SNP-SNP interactions are underdeveloped. RESULTS: ...
Genome-wide association analysis of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma identifies pleiotropic risk loci.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-01-23)
B-cell malignancies (BCM) originate from the same cell of origin, but at different maturation stages and have distinct clinical phenotypes. Although genetic risk variants for individual BCMs have been identified, an agnostic, ...
Volumetry of the dominant intraprostatic tumour lesion: intersequence and interobserver differences on multiparametric MRI.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2017-03-01)
OBJECTIVE: To establish the interobserver reproducibility of tumour volumetry on individual multiparametric (mp) prostate MRI sequences, validate measurements with histology and determine whether functional to morphological ...
Catch my drift? Making sense of genomic intra-tumour heterogeneity.
(ELSEVIER, 2017-04-01)
The cancer genome is shaped by three components of the evolutionary process: mutation, selection and drift. While many studies have focused on the first two components, the role of drift in cancer evolution has received ...
Adolescent and young adult (AYA) lymphoma survivors report lower health-related quality of life compared to a normative population: results from the PROFILES registry.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Trying to simultaneously achieve developmental milestones and cope with a life-threatening disease may place adolescents and young adults (AYAs) at risk for impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL) later ...
Normal Tissue Complication Probability (NTCP) Modelling of Severe Acute Mucositis using a Novel Oral Mucosal Surface Organ at Risk.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2017-04-01)
AIMS: A normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) model of severe acute mucositis would be highly useful to guide clinical decision making and inform radiotherapy planning. We aimed to improve upon our previous model ...
Development of the SIOPE DIPG network, registry and imaging repository: a collaborative effort to optimize research into a rare and lethal disease.
(SPRINGER, 2017-04-01)
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare and deadly childhood malignancy. After 40 years of mostly single-center, often non-randomized trials with variable patient inclusions, there has been no improvement in ...
Novel therapeutic approaches in chondrosarcoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2017-03-01)
Chondrosarcoma is a malignant tumor of bones, characterized by the production of cartilage matrix. Due to lack of effective treatment for advanced disease, the clinical management of chondrosarcomas is exceptionally ...
A generalized framework unifying image registration and respiratory motion models and incorporating image reconstruction, for partial image data or full images.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2017-06-07)
Surrogate-driven respiratory motion models relate the motion of the internal anatomy to easily acquired respiratory surrogate signals, such as the motion of the skin surface. They are usually built by first using image ...
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy to Study Glycolytic Metabolism During Autophagy.
(ELSEVIER ACADEMIC PRESS INC, 2017-01-01)
Cancer cells undergoing starvation- and treatment-induced autophagy were found to exhibit reduced intracellular lactate, reduced rates of steady-state lactate excretion and reduced real-time pyruvate-lactate exchange rates, ...
