Cancers are driven by alterations in diverse genes, creating dependencies that can be therapeutically targeted. However, many genetic dependencies have proven inconsistent across tumors. Here we describe SCHEMATIC, a strategy to identify a core network of highly penetrant, actionable genetic interactions.

Article Synopsis
  • Microbially induced corrosion (MIC) affects environmental issues, such as interactions with radioactive waste and the role of microbes in environmental cleanup.
  • A step-by-step protocol for preparing bacterial biofilms for analysis using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is discussed, comparing three techniques: no desalination, centrifugal spinning (CS), and water submersion (WS).
  • Results show that CS significantly reduces media peaks and enhances biological signals, revealing chemical changes in glass exposed to a specific bacterial biofilm over three months, indicating MIC effects.

Background: The aim of this retrospective observational study was to investigate the geographical or sex differences in patients with synchronous colorectal liver metastases (sCRLM) in terms of assessment by a multidisciplinary team conference (MDT), curative treatment, and overall survival.

Method: All sCRLM patients in the South-East Health Care Region of Sweden from 2009 to 2015 were included (n = 615). Data were derived from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Registry, Swedish Registry of Liver and Bile Surgery and medical records.
