Oropharyngeal cancerTransoral robotic surgeryPurpose: To compare treatment costs and cost-effectiveness for transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in managing early stage tonsil cancer. Materials and methods: Direct treatment costs for surgery and IMRT were ...
Stage IV. End-stage liver disease (ESLD) This stage is characterized by extensive liver damage and significantly reduced liver function. This stage may also involve liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma). Symptoms are severe and can include jaundice, ascites, variceal hemorrhage, hepaticencephalopathy,...

When the risk of ovarian cancer algorithm (ROCA) was combined with TVS for women who had elevated CA-125 (a multimodal screening approach), this approach resulted in a combined specificity of 99.8% with a 22% PPV and a modest increase in the detected early stage EOC c ases10,16. ...
Conventional and non-nodal, leukemic MCL. Both MCL variants are derived from a precursor cell that acquired a cyclin D1 (or cyclin D2 or cyclin D3) translocation at the pre-B cell stage. Conventional MCL (to the left) is hypothesised to follow a differentiation pathway similar to naïve...
Benefitting from the application experience of Chinese Medicine (CM) for influenza and SARS, CM has been used to save patients at the early stage of COVID-19 outbreak in China. Aim of the study In order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM, and compare with Western Medicine (WM) ...
We demonstrated that these new ovarian cancer biomarkers could discriminate ovarian cancer cases from healthy controls. In fact, when we performed a separate analysis of the early stage compared to late stage versus healthy, four markers (ACSL4, ITGB3, ITGA5 and FOLR1) demonstrated higher AUC ...
Transoral resection of tumour is an established technique for the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer; we describe this endoscopic video-assisted method and its success in obtaining clear margins. Most resectable tumours are early stage tonsil tumours requiring a lateral oropharyngeal resection. The ...
