Oncologists' Satisfaction with Virtual Care: A Questionnaire.

Introduction: Although virtual care (VC) has become an integral part of oncology care and healthcare delivery, clinicians' perspectives on and satisfaction with this modality are not well understood.

Methods: Using a National Network Forum framework and expert panel review, we developed a questionnaire to measure oncologists' satisfaction with VC. The questionnaire was distributed to Canadian oncologists through medical society email lists (n = 1541).

Artichoke phytocomplex modulates serum microRNAs in patients exposed to asbestos: a first step of a phase II clinical trial.

Background: Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a highly aggressive tumor associated with asbestos exposure. There are few effective treatment options for mesothelioma, and patients have a very poor prognosis. Mesothelioma has the potential to represent an appropriate disease to prevent because of its strong association with asbestos exposure and the long latency from exposure to the disease on-set.

Prognostic associations of 25 hydroxy vitamin D in NCIC CTG MA.21, a phase III adjuvant randomized clinical trial of three chemotherapy regimens in high-risk breast cancer.

Low vitamin D levels have been associated with poor breast cancer outcomes in observational studies. We examined the association of vitamin D blood levels with relapse-free survival (RFS), breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS), and overall survival (OS) in the MA.21 randomized clinical trial.
