Prostate-specific antigen velocity in a prospective prostate cancer screening study of men with genetic predisposition.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-20)
This corrects the article DOI: 10.1038/bjc.2017.429.
Fine-mapping of prostate cancer susceptibility loci in a large meta-analysis identifies candidate causal variants.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-06-11)
Prostate cancer is a polygenic disease with a large heritable component. A number of common, low-penetrance prostate cancer risk loci have been identified through GWAS. Here we apply the Bayesian multivariate variable ...
Germline variation at 8q24 and prostate cancer risk in men of European ancestry.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-11-05)
Chromosome 8q24 is a susceptibility locus for multiple cancers, including prostate cancer. Here we combine genetic data across the 8q24 susceptibility region from 71,535 prostate cancer cases and 52,935 controls of European ...
Trans-abdominal in vivo placental vessel occlusion using High Intensity Focused Ultrasound.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-09-11)
Pre-clinically, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) has been shown to safely and effectively occlude placental blood vessels in the acute setting, when applied through the uterus. However, further development of the ...
Sequencing of prostate cancers identifies new cancer genes, routes of progression and drug targets.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-05-01)
Prostate cancer represents a substantial clinical challenge because it is difficult to predict outcome and advanced disease is often fatal. We sequenced the whole genomes of 112 primary and metastatic prostate cancer ...
Ki67 Is an Independent Predictor of Recurrence in the Largest Randomized Trial of 3 Radiation Fractionation Schedules in Localized Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-06-01)
PURPOSE: To assess whether the cellular proliferation marker Ki67 provides prognostic information and predicts response to radiation therapy fractionation in patients with localized prostate tumors participating in a ...
Late normal tissue effects in the arm and shoulder following lymphatic radiotherapy: Results from the UK START (Standardisation of Breast Radiotherapy) trials.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2018-01-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Adjuvant lymphatic radiotherapy (LNRT) is recommended for selected axillary node positive women with early breast cancer. We investigated whether hypofractionated LNRT is safe combined with ...
Mendelian randomisation study of the relationship between vitamin D and risk of glioma.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-02-05)
To examine for a causal relationship between vitamin D and glioma risk we performed an analysis of genetic variants associated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels using Mendelian randomisation (MR), an approach ...
