Mapping the Grounds for Mortalities in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Through Registry Analyses: A Retrospective Cohort Study of Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults Patients.

Background: Our objective was to identify non-malignant factors that contribute to mortality in children, adolescents and young adults, aiming to improve patient follow-up and reduce mortality rates to achieve better survival outcomes.

Methods: We analyzed 8,239 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases diagnosed between 2000 and 2019 in the USA. Using version 8.

[Subcutaneous nephrovesical bypass in ureteral obstruction].

We performed subcutaneous bypass draining (SBD) of the upper urinary tract (UUT) in 12 patients (3 males, 9 females, mean age 64 years) in 2006-2008. Ureteral obstruction was caused by a tumor in 11 patients, one patient had extended obliteration of the left ureter after resection of the abdominal aorta aneurysm and two plastic operations on the UUT. All the patients with ureteral tumor obstruction had only one functional kidney.

Effect of tea polyphenols on growth of oral squamous carcinoma cells in vitro.

Epidemiologic evidence indicates that both black and green tea is a rich source of flavonoids and other polyphenolic antioxidants which protects against heart disease and cancer. In the current investigation, utilizing human oral squamous carcinoma cell line SCC-25, we have evaluated the effect of three major tea constituents, (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate (ECG) and (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) on cell growth and DNA synthesis. Test agents in concentrations of 50, 80, 100 and 200 microM were incubated in triplicates in DMEM-HAM's F-12 (50: 50) supplemented with 10% calf serum and antibiotics in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air for 72 hrs.

The inhibitory effect of curcumin, genistein, quercetin and cisplatin on the growth of oral cancer cells in vitro.

Epidemiological evidence indicates that plant derived flavonoids and other phenolic antioxidants protect against heart disease and cancer. In the current investigation utilizing human oral squamous carcinoma cell line (SCC-25), we have evaluated the potency of three different plant phenolics, viz., curcumin, genistein and quercetin in comparison with that of cisplatin on growth and proliferation of SCC-25.

The effect of red wine and its components on growth and proliferation of human oral squamous carcinoma cells.

Epidemiologic evidence indicates that red wine may contain phenolic compounds which protect against heart disease and cancer. Resveratrol and quercetin are wine phenolics which possess antioxidant and antimutagenic effects. Resveratrol at 10 and 100 microM induced significant dose-dependent inhibition in human oral squamous carcinoma cell (SCC-25) growth and DNA synthesis.
