Comparison of Acute and Late toxicities with Daily vs. Every-Other-Day Five Fraction Partial Breast Radiation Therapy.
Pract Radiat Oncol
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, Allegheny Health Network, Pittsburgh, PA. Electronic address:
Purpose/objective: Partial breast irradiation (PBI) delivered with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) over five fractions every other day (QOD) represents an attractive, convenient method of delivering adjuvant radiation therapy for well selected patients without compromising oncologic or toxicity outcomes. Condensing this regimen to a week of treatment through consecutive daily delivery may further increase patient convenience, though comparison of toxicities between daily and QOD regimens are limited.
Materials/methods: We retrospectively reviewed 507 patients from an institutional registry undergoing PBI for DCIS or early-stage breast cancer (T1-2N0/x) from 2015 to 2022.
Prophylactic Irradiation for the Prevention of Heterotopic Ossification After Foot Amputation: A Case Series.
J Am Podiatr Med Assoc

‡Department of Plastic Surgery, Medstar Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, DC.
Background: The formation of heterotopic ossification (HO) is a common complication after transosseous partial foot amputation. Development of HO in weightbearing and/or superficial areas can lead to increased pressures, which increases the likelihood of wound formation and pain. Current treatment modalities for HO of the foot include mechanical off-loading and surgical resection; however, prophylactic measures such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, bisphosphonates, and other medical therapies have been attempted previously with mixed efficacy.

Human hair keratin, a natural protein derived from human hair, has emerged prominently in the field of wound repair, showcasing its unique regenerative capabilities and extensive application potential. However, it is a challenge for the keratin to efficiently therapy the impaired wound healing, such as combined radiation-wound injury. Here, we report a keratin/chitosan (KRT/CS) film for skin repair of chronic wounds in in rats with combined radiation-wound injury.

Ovarian cancer (OC) remains one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies, largely due to its late-stage diagnosis and high recurrence rates. Chronic inflammation is a critical driver of OC progression, contributing to immune evasion, tumor growth, and metastasis. Inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-8, as well as key signaling pathways such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), are upregulated in OC, promoting a tumor-promoting environment.

Department of Internal Medicine, Temple University Health System, Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Background: Spontaneous splenic rupture (SSR) is a known complication of hematologic malignancy. Rare cases have been reported in which patients presented with SSR prior to diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). We present a case of atraumatic SSR due to CML presenting as persistent abdominal pain.
