Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a known tumor marker increased in lung cancer. Cell-free DNA is present in increased amounts in the plasma of patients with cancer. We performed this study to evaluate the role of CRP, CEA, and cell-free plasma DNA for the detection of lung cancer....
PD-L1 Introduction Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been shown to be an effective new strategy in the treatment of lung cancer, and their use has been established as the stand- ard treatment for patients with locally advanced/meta- static non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), whether in...
Oral medicinal cannabinoids to relieve symptom burden in the palliative care of patients with advanced cancer: a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised clinical trial of efficacy and safety of 1:1 delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). Trials. 2020;21(1):611. Article ...
In order to simplify the impact of medical resection, RFA and HIFU, we provided a decision-making foundation when it comes to medical treatment of cancer of the colon liver metastasis through organized reviews and community meta-analysis (NMA). This research is continuous and the outcomes will ...
In general, higher levels of CRP indicate inflammation, but this measure is known to vary wildly from day to day within the same person and is more useful as an indicator of severe inflammation within a larger population. Are there foods that cause inflammation?...

Comparatively in open resections, ROC analysis suggests day 3 CRP of 207 (ROC area: 0.765, sensitivity: 0.765, specificity: 0.700) is predictive.ConclusionCRP, in both laparoscopic and open rectal resections, has positive predictive value for an anastomotic leak; best seen at day 3. ...

Bone Metastases and Mortality in Prostate Cancer: Can We Be Doing More? A presentation by Neal Shore, MD. Dr. Shore discuss how addressing bone metastatic disease may improve outcomes in patients with advanced prostate cancer and could inform diagnostic and therapeutic consideration...
Lung cancer (LC) is one of the most common and serious types of cancer. Unfortunately, it is not easy to detect in the early stages of the disease due to the absence of symptoms. Many patients have late-stage LC when they are diagnosed, and this is associated with limited treatment opti...
