Purpose: Synchronous esophageal (EC) and rectal carcinoma (RC) is a rare and challenging condition, particularly in curative-intended treatment. Especially locally advanced tumors may not be suitable for primary resection and require individual multimodal treatment. This review examines curative-intended management of synchronous EC and RC.

The present study analyzed the impact of age on the causes of death (CODs) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using machine learning approaches. A total of 2841 patients (1037 classified as older, ≥ 60 years and 1804 as younger, < 60 years) were enrolled. Variations in the CODs between the two age groups were analyzed before and after applying inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).

Purpose: A comprehensive literature review was undertaken to understand the effects and underlying mechanisms of cranial radiotherapy (RT) on the hippocampus and hippocampal neurogenesis as well as to explore protective factors and treatments that might mitigate these effects in preclinical studies.
Methods: PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Embase were queried for studies involving the effects of radiation on the hippocampus and hippocampal neurogenesis. Data extraction followed the Animal Research Reporting of In Vivo Experiments (ARRIVE) guidelines, and a risk of bias assessment was conducted for the included animal studies using the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation (SYRCLE) risk of bias tool.

Background: Radiotherapy is the primary treatment modality for most head and neck cancers (HNCs). Despite the addition of chemotherapy to radiotherapy to enhance its tumoricidal effects, almost a third of HNC patients suffer from locoregional relapses. Salvage therapy options for such recurrences are limited and often suboptimal, partly owing to divergent tumor and microenvironmental factors underpinning radioresistance.

Objective: Opinions regarding the use of ADMs are currently divided. While their positive contribution to reconstructive breast surgery is evident, the results of studies vary depending on specific procedures, patient selection, and techniques employed.
