We observed no difference in cobalamin or holotranscobalamin levels when comparing patients diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (n = 161, 18%) to patients without lung cancer (n = 742, 80%), while transcobalamin showed minor differences. Haptocorrin was significantly higher in those with...
neoplasia and tumorgrowth.Methods: Study group included twenty four newly diagnosed cases with cancer and 26 age matched controls.Serum homocysteine, vitamin B12 and folate levels were estimated.Results: The study confirms the finding of higher homocysteine levels in cancer patients when compared to ...
Elevated plasma vitamin B12 levels (cobalamin, Cbl) are associated with increased short-term cancer risk among patients referred for this laboratory measurement. We aimed to assess prognosis in cancer patients with elevated plasma Cbl. We conducted a population-based cohort study using data from Danis...
That is to say, plasma folate levels were significantly lower in cases of lung cancer compared to controls (p < 0.001). There was no significantly difference between groups with regard to B12 levels (mean B12 level was 234 ± 99 and 240 ± 104 ng/ml in the patients with lung cancer ...
A substantial proportion of patients referred for plasma vitamin B12 (cobalamin [Cbl]) measurement present with high Cbl levels, which have been reported in patients with different cancer types. However, the cancer risk among patients with newly diagnosed high Cbl levels has not been adequately exam...
B vitamins such as folate (B9), B6, and B12 are key in one carbon metabolism, which generates methyl donors for DNA methylation. Several studies have linked differential methylation to self-reported intakes of folate and B12, but these estimates can be i
Introduction Vitamin B12 deficiency is a recognised problem in patients after surgery for OG cancer owing to the implications of surgery on gastric acid and intrinsic factor (IF) production (which are needed for Vitamin B12 metabolism). However it is postulated that for some patients with OG cance...

A total of 136 (4.0%) who received folic acid plus vitamin B12 vs 100 (2.9%) who did not receive such treatment died from cancer (HR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.07-1.79; P = .01). A total of 548 patients (16.1%) who received folic acid plus vitamin B12 vs 473 (13.8%) who did not ...
OBJECTIVE: To determine plasma levels of homocysteine, folate, and vitamin B12 in patients with laryngeal cancer and a control group. DESIGN: Analysis of homocysteine, folate, and vitamin B12 levels in 25 consecutive untreated patients with laryngeal carcinoma and 80 healthy control participants. The...
