The sarcoma ring trial: a case-based analysis of inter-center agreement across 21 German-speaking sarcoma centers.

Purpose: The management of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) at reference centers with specialized multidisciplinary tumor boards (MTB) improves patient survival. The German Cancer Society (DKG) certifies sarcoma centers in German-speaking countries, promoting high standards of care. This study investigated the variability in treatment recommendations for localized STS across different German-speaking tertiary sarcoma centers.

Metastasis-directed stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with breast cancer: results of an international multicenter cohort study.

Metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) for oligometastatic breast cancer (≤ 5 metastases) has shown little effect in specific scenarios of randomized trials. Therefore, we aimed to assess outcomes after metastasis-directed stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) in various clinical scenarios. We conducted an international retrospective cohort study in thirteen centers including breast cancer patients receiving SRT to any metastatic site.

Assessing maximal sprinting speed in soccer - criterion validity of commonly used devices.

This study aimed to investigate the criterion validity of commonly used devices to assess maximal sprinting speed (MSS) in soccer. Thirty elite youth soccer players completed three trials of a 30-m sprint test to assess MSS. All sprints were simultaneously captured via a radar gun (Stalker ATS II), timing gates (Smartspeed Pro, Fusion Sport), a magnetic timing system (Humotion SmarTracks) and a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) (Kinexon Perform GPS Pro).

Protocol for feeding strategy and proteomics analysis of zebrafish Danio rerio using S-trap and iTRAQ techniques.

Yeast serves as a functional alternative and sustainable protein source in aquaculture. This protocol outlines feeding strategy and intestinal proteome analysis of zebrafish (Danio rerio), using S-trap for digestion, iTRAQ, and mass spectrometry for protein quantification. Additionally, it details the analysis of chemical components in feed and functional assessments via Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Eukaryotic Orthologous Group (KOG), and Gene Ontology (GO).

Gliosarcoma: A Multi-Institutional Analysis on Clinical Outcomes and Prognostic Factors.

Purpose: This study describes oncological outcomes and investigates prognostic factors for patients with gliosarcomas (GSM).

Methods: Histopathologically confirmed GSM patients who underwent treatment at five European institutions were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: We analyzed 170 patients with a median clinical follow-up time of 9.
