Subleaves of nodules or masses of the lung: the arc chord distance/chord length is greater than or equal to 0.4; = 0.3 is the middle lobe; It is less than or equal to 0.2. In the lung, 80% of the lesions were less than 2cm. More than 4cm is mostly malignant. The wall ...
S1676Things Are Not Always What They Seem: A Rare Case of Pancreatic Carcinoma Manifesting Through Cutaneous Metastasis The coexistence of lung nodules on a CT scan with worsening respiratory symptoms in the context of previous would usually signify . The cause of the lung nodules in this 69-yea...
The overexpression of oncogenes and the loss of function of tumor suppressor genes are usually involved in both malignant conversion of the cells and further growth of tumor cells. A new generation of small molecules targeting proliferation pathways, like gefitinib, erlotinib, and imatinib, has been...
The disease state is being controlled by various anti-diabetic drugs acting by various mechanisms, such as by increase in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells by sulphonylureas (e.g., glibenclamide) [120], an enhancement of insulin action by PPAR-γ (peroxisome proliferator activated recepto...
Pancreatic Cancer Pancreatic cancer is a malignant tumor of the pancreas. Pancreatic cancer has been called a "silent" disease because early pancreatic cancer usually does not cause early symptoms. Typically, pancreatic cancer has metastasized (spread to adjacent organs, such as the liver) by the ...
Objective: Due to emerging evidence on the connection between circadian oscillator, cell cycle and oncogenic transformation, we aimed to characterize the circadian clockwork in human benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Design: Clock transcript levels were assessed by quantitative RT-PCR in thyroid ...
Clinical features, including presence of undefined/non-malignant liver nodules (UNMN), were analysed with respect to HCC incidence and recurrence. RESULTS :During a median study time of 17 months in group 1 and 15 months in group 2, de novo HCC developed in 48 patients (yearly incidence 3.1...
