Addressing intimate partner violence during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond: how radiologists can make a difference.
Faced with the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries both in Europe and across the world implemented strict stay-at-home orders. These measures helped to slow the spread of the coronavirus but also led to increased mental and ... -
ADGRL4/ELTD1 Silencing in Endothelial Cells Induces ACLY and SLC25A1 and Alters the Cellular Metabolic Profile.
(MDPI, 2019-11-25)Adhesion G Protein-Coupled Receptor L4 (ADGRL4/ELTD1) is an endothelial cell adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR) which regulates physiological and tumour angiogenesis, providing an attractive target for anti-cancer ... -
Adjuvant bevacizumab for melanoma patients at high risk of recurrence: survival analysis of the AVAST-M trial.
(2018-08)Background Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanised monoclonal antibody to vascular endothelial growth factor shown to improve survival in advanced solid cancers. We evaluated the role of adjuvant bevacizumab in melanoma ... -
Adjuvant Olaparib for Patients with BRCA1- or BRCA2-Mutated Breast Cancer.
(MASSACHUSETTS MEDICAL SOC, 2021-06-24)BACKGROUND: Poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitors target cancers with defects in homologous recombination repair by synthetic lethality. New therapies are needed to reduce recurrence in patients with ... -
Adjuvant olaparib in the subset of patients from Japan with BRCA1- or BRCA2-mutated high-risk early breast cancer from the phase 3 OlympiA trial.
(SPRINGER JAPAN KK, 2023-07-01)BACKGROUND: The efficacy and safety of olaparib compared with placebo in the subset of patients from Japan in the phase 3 OlympiA trial (NCT02032823) are reported here and contextualized with reference to the global OlympiA ... -
Adjuvant or early salvage radiotherapy for the treatment of localised and locally advanced prostate cancer: a prospectively planned systematic review and meta-analysis of aggregate data.
(2020-09-28)BACKGROUND:It is unclear whether adjuvant or early salvage radiotherapy following radical prostatectomy is more appropriate for men who present with localised or locally advanced prostate cancer. We aimed to prospectively ... -
Advanced practice roles of therapeutic radiographers/radiation therapists: A systematic literature review.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022-08-01)INTRODUCTION: Advances in Radiotherapy (RT) technology and increase of complexity in cancer care have enabled the implementation of new treatment techniques. Subsequently, a greater level of autonomy, responsibility, and ... -
Advances in targeted alpha therapy for prostate cancer.
(2019-11)Amongst therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, targeted alpha therapy (TαT) can deliver potent and local radiation selectively to cancer cells as well as the tumor microenvironment and thereby control cancer while minimizing ... -

AI delivers Michaelis constants as fuel for genome-scale metabolic models.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2021-10-20)Michaelis constants (Km) are essential to predict the catalytic rate of enzymes, but are not widely available. A new study in PLOS Biology uses artificial intelligence (AI) to accurately predict Km on a proteome-wide scale, ... -
Allele balance bias identifies systematic genotyping errors and false disease associations.
(WILEY, 2019-01-01)In recent years, next-generation sequencing (NGS) has become a cornerstone of clinical genetics and diagnostics. Many clinical applications require high precision, especially if rare events such as somatic mutations in ... -
An alternative NURF complex sustains acute myeloid leukemia by regulating the accessibility of insulator regions.
(WILEY, 2023-12-11)Efficient treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients remains a challenge despite recent therapeutic advances. Here, using a CRISPRi screen targeting chromatin factors, we identified the nucleosome-remodeling factor ... -
An emerging role for IQGAP1 in tight junction control.
(2018-09)IQGAP1 is a scaffold protein involved in the assembly of adherens junctions. Our work has recently revealed a novel role for IQGAP1 in the regulation of tight junctions (TJ) through differential recruitment of claudins to ... -
An evaluation of self-perceived knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of UK oncologists about LGBTQ+ patients with cancer.
(2020-11)Introduction Over one million people in the UK identify as LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning). Research has shown that this population experience differing cancer risk factors compared with ... -
An evaluation of the performance of HapMap SNP data in a Shanghai Chinese population: Analyses of allele frequency, linkage disequilibrium pattern and tagging SNPs transferability on chromosome Iq2I-q25
(2008-02)Background: The HapMap project aimed to catalog millions of common single nucleotide polymorphisms ( SNPs) in the human genome in four major populations, in order to facilitate association studies of complex diseases. To ... -
