Article Synopsis
  • Ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS) is a non-invasive breast cancer type that makes up about 25% of breast cancer cases, but it often leads to unnecessary aggressive treatment despite many cases never progressing to invasive cancer.
  • A study analyzed 197 breast tissue samples to explore molecular changes in DCIS, using techniques like mRNA expression and DNA analysis to compare progressing versus non-progressing cases.
  • The research found significant molecular differences among DCIS subtypes and between DCIS and invasive breast cancer, highlighting the complexity of DCIS and the need for more tailored approaches to assess risk and treatment.

BACKGROUNDDespite an overall poor prognosis, about 15% of patients with advanced-stage tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) survive 10 or more years after standard treatment.METHODSWe evaluated the tumor microenvironment of this exceptional, understudied group using a large international cohort enriched for long-term survivors (LTS; 10+ years; n = 374) compared with mid-term (MTS; 5-7.99 years; n = 433) and short-term survivors (STS; 2-4.

Plasma Ghrelin and Risks of Sex-Specific, Site-Specific, and Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis.

Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev

December 2024

Nutrition and Metabolism Branch, International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigated the potential link between ghrelin, a hormone, and colorectal cancer using a two-sample Mendelian randomization approach, analyzing data from over 54,000 participants.
  • - Results showed no significant association between genetically predicted plasma ghrelin levels and colorectal cancer risk, even when considering factors like sex, cancer subsite, and age at diagnosis.
  • - The findings contribute to the existing evidence suggesting that plasma ghrelin levels do not play a causal role in the development of colorectal cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • Blood products, specifically RBC transfusions, are commonly used in critically ill patients, prompting a detailed review of current practices and evidence to guide healthcare providers.
  • A panel of experts evaluated existing literature and developed specific questions regarding RBC transfusions, ultimately analyzing 23 key studies to form strong and conditional recommendations.
  • Overall, a restrictive transfusion strategy was found to be safer for most critically ill patients, decreasing RBC use without raising the risk of death or complications; however, it may not be suitable for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
