The need for consensus on delineation and dose constraints of dentofacial structures in paediatric radiotherapy: Outcomes of a SIOP Europe survey.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2023-11-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Children receiving radiotherapy for head-and-neck tumours often experience severe dentofacial side effects. Despite this, recommendations for contouring and dose constraints to dentofacial structures ...
Chronic airflow obstruction attributable to poverty in the multinational Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease (BOLD) study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2023-09-01)
Poverty is strongly associated with all-cause and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) mortality. Less is known about the contribution of poverty to spirometrically defined chronic airflow obstruction (CAO)-a key ...
JMJD6 Is a Druggable Oxygenase That Regulates AR-V7 Expression in Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-02-15)
Endocrine resistance (EnR) in advanced prostate cancer is fatal. EnR can be mediated by androgen receptor (AR) splice variants, with AR splice variant 7 (AR-V7) arguably the most clinically important variant. In this study, ...
Perspectives on ENCODE.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-07-30)
The Encylopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project launched in 2003 with the long-term goal of developing a comprehensive map of functional elements in the human genome. These included genes, biochemical regions associated ...
The kinase polypharmacology landscape of clinical PARP inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-17)
Polypharmacology plays an important role in defining response and adverse effects of drugs. For some mechanisms, experimentally mapping polypharmacology is commonplace, although this is typically done within the same protein ...
Patient-Reported Outcomes Over 5 Years After Whole- or Partial-Breast Radiotherapy: Longitudinal Analysis of the IMPORT LOW (CRUK/06/003) Phase III Randomized Controlled Trial.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2019-02-01)
PURPOSE: IMPORT LOW demonstrated noninferiority of partial-breast and reduced-dose radiotherapy versus whole-breast radiotherapy for local relapse and similar or reduced toxicity at 5 years. Comprehensive patient-reported ...
Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for testicular cancer, including variants near DAZL and PRDM14.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-06-01)
Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men and is notable for its high familial risks. So far, six loci associated with TGCT have been reported. From genome-wide association study (GWAS) ...
Developing and validating a simple urethra surrogate model to facilitate dosimetric analysis to predict genitourinary toxicity.
(Elsevier BV, 2024-05-01)
PURPOSE: The urethra is a critical structure in prostate radiotherapy planning; however, it is impossible to visualise on CT. We developed a surrogate urethra model (SUM) for CT-only planning workflow and tested its geometric ...
Brachytherapy for rhabdomyosarcoma: Survey of international clinical practice and development of guidelines.
(Elsevier BV, 2024-04-07)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to address the lack of published data on the use of brachytherapy in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma by describing current practice as starting point to develop consensus ...
A step and shoot intensity modulated technique for total body irradiation.
(Elsevier BV, 2019-06-01)
INTRODUCTION: Total body irradiation (TBI) is a part of the conditioning regimen for bone marrow transplant.At the Royal Marsden (Sutton, UK) and Rigshospitalet (Copenhagen, Denmark), we introduced a step and shoot IMRT ...
