Gastric Collision Tumors: An Insight into Their Origin and Clinical Significance
(2015)Collision tumors are rare neoplasms displaying two distinct cell populations developing in juxtaposition to one another without areas of intermingling. They are rare entities with only 63 cases described in English literature. ... -
General anaesthetic and airway management practice for obstetric surgery in England: a prospective, multicentre observational study.
(WILEY, 2020-09-21)There are no current descriptions of general anaesthesia characteristics for obstetric surgery, despite recent changes to patient baseline characteristics and airway management guidelines. This analysis of data from the ... -
Genetic Testing for Cancer Predisposition Syndromes in Adolescents and Young Adults (AYAs)

Genetic Tracing via DNGR-1 Expression History Defines Dendritic Cells as a Hematopoietic Lineage
(CELL PRESS, 2013-08-15)Mononuclear phagocytes are classified as macrophages or dendritic cells (DCs) based on cell morphology, phenotype, or select functional properties. However, these attributes are not absolute and often overlap, leading to ... -
Genomic Abnormalities as Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
(MDPI, 2021-10-09)Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of myeloid stem and progenitor cells in the bone marrow, peripheral blood, and other tissues. AML results from the ... -
Genomic Evolution of Breast Cancer Metastasis and Relapse.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-08-14)Patterns of genomic evolution between primary and metastatic breast cancer have not been studied in large numbers, despite patients with metastatic breast cancer having dismal survival. We sequenced whole genomes or a panel ... -
Germline and Somatic Genetic Variants in the p53 Pathway Interact to Affect Cancer Risk, Progression, and Drug Response.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-04-01)Insights into oncogenesis derived from cancer susceptibility loci (SNP) hold the potential to facilitate better cancer management and treatment through precision oncology. However, therapeutic insights have thus far been ... -
Germline-focused analysis of tumour-detected variants in 49,264 cancer patients: ESMO Precision Medicine Working Group recommendations.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-03-01)BACKGROUND: The European Society for Medical Oncology Precision Medicine Working Group (ESMO PMWG) was reconvened to update its 2018/19 recommendations on follow-up of putative germline variants detected on tumour-only ... -
Germline-focussed analysis of tumour-only sequencing: recommendations from the ESMO Precision Medicine Working Group.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-08-01)It is increasingly common in oncology practice to perform tumour sequencing using large cancer panels. For pathogenic sequence variants in cancer susceptibility genes identified on tumour-only sequencing, it is often unclear ... -
Global, site-specific analysis of neuronal protein S-acylation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-07-05)Protein S-acylation (palmitoylation) is a reversible lipid modification that is an important regulator of dynamic membrane-protein interactions. Proteomic approaches have uncovered many putative palmitoylated proteins ... -
Glucocorticoids inhibit apoptosis during fibrosarcoma development by transcriptionally activating Bcl-x(L)
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2003-05-16)Glucocorticoids influence many physiological processes, and in particular apoptosis, often with opposite effects depending on the cell type examined. We found that during fibrosarcoma development there is a strong increase ... -
Grass-roots junior doctor communication network in response to the COVID-19 pandemic: a service evaluation.
Background COVID-19 was declared a worldwide pandemic on 11 March 2020. Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust provides 1412 inpatient beds staffed by 1200 junior doctors and faced a large burden of COVID-19 admissions.Local ... -
Has COVID-19 had a greater impact on female than male oncologists? Results of the ESMO Women for Oncology (W4O) Survey.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-06-16)BACKGROUND: European Society for Medical Oncology Women for Oncology (ESMO W4O) research has previously shown under-representation of female oncologists in leadership roles. As early reports suggested disproportionate ... -
Head and neck mucosal melanoma: The United Kingdom national guidelines.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2020-10-01)The United Kingdom head and neck mucosal melanoma guideline development group used an evidence-based systematic approach to make recommendations in key areas of uncertainty in the field, including accurate diagnosis and ... -

Hematologic Safety of Radium-223 Dichloride: Baseline Prognostic Factors Associated With Myelosuppression in the ALSYMPCA Trial.
(2017-02)Background Myelosuppression is common in patients with progressive castration-resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases. Radium-223 prolongs overall survival in these patients but may cause myelosuppression; understanding ... -
HER2 Inhibition in Gastric Cancer-Novel Therapeutic Approaches for an Established Target.
(MDPI, 2022-08-06)Gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Human epidermal growth receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression of HER2 gene amplification is present in 20% of gastric cancers and defines a subset amenable to ... -
High concentrations of reactive oxygen species in the BAL fluid are correlated with lung injury in rabbits after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation.
(TOHOKU UNIV MEDICAL PRESS, 2009-11-01)Increased levels of cytokines or reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid are associated with acute lung injury after ischemia/reperfusion. We investigated the correlation of these markers ... -
