Ectopic Production of Parathyroid Hormone and Production of Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein in Dedifferentiated Endometrial Carcinoma Induced Severe Hypercalcemia.

Hypercalcemia is a significant complication in cancer patients, primarily caused by parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) and, rarely, by parathyroid hormone (PTH) production from tumors. We report a case of severe hypercalcemia in a woman with uterine cancer who exhibited elevated PTH and PTHrP levels. Surgical intervention revealed dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma.

A Pragmatic Method to Integrate Data From Preexisting Cohort Studies Using the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) Study Data Tabulation Model: Case Study.

Background: In recent years, many researchers have focused on the use of legacy data, such as pooled analyses that collect and reanalyze data from multiple studies. However, the methodology for the integration of preexisting databases whose data were collected for different purposes has not been established. Previously, we developed a tool to efficiently generate Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) data from hypothetical clinical trial data using the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) SDTM.

Genistein Induces Antiproliferative Activity and Apoptosis in Human Osteosarcoma Saos-2 Cells.

Background/aim: Genistein (4', 5, 7-trihydroxyisoflavone) and daidzein (4', 7-dihydroxyisoflavone) are isoflavones derived from soybean and have anti-cancer effects in various cells. However, the effects of genistein and daidzein on the human osteosarcoma cell line Saos-2 has not been investigated before.

Materials And Methods: Human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells were treated with genistein for 24 and 48 hours.

A Pragmatic Method to Integrate Data from Pre-existing Cohort Studies using the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) Study Data Tabulation Model: Practical use of REDCap2SDTM.

Background: In recent years, many researchers have focused on legacy data utilization, such as pooled analyses that collect and re-analyze data from multiple studies. However, the methodology for the integration of pre-existing databases whose data were collected for different purposes has not been established. Previously, we developed a tool to efficiently generate Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) data from hypothetical clinical trial data using the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) SDTM.

Efficacy of Integrated Online Mindfulness and Self-compassion Training for Adults With Atopic Dermatitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Quality of life (QOL) of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) is reported to be the lowest among skin diseases. To our knowledge, mindfulness and self-compassion training has not been evaluated for adults with AD.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of mindfulness and self-compassion training in improving the QOL for adults with AD.
