AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The potential use of tumour blood flow reductions, induced by the vasodilator hydralazine, in cancer therapy are described. Data obtained in experimental tumour systems indicate that with appropriate scheduling and drug combinations, hydralazine can increase the therapeutic effectiveness of certain chemotherapeutic agents whether used alone or in combination with other modalities such as radiation or hyperthermia.

Purpose: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is an important prognostic factor for rectal cancer. This study aims to introduce a novel cutoff point for CEA within the normal range to improve prognosis prediction and enhance patient stratification in rectal cancer patients.
Methods: A total of 316 patients with stages I to III rectal cancer who underwent surgical tumor resection were enrolled.

Melanoma is an immunogenic tumor. The melanoma tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is made up of a heterogenous mix of both immune and non-immune cells as well as a multitude of signaling molecules. The interactions between tumor cells, immune cells and signaling molecules affect tumor progression and therapeutic responses.

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an immunomodulatory molecule that may play an immunosuppressive role in nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), specifically basal cell carcinoma (BCC). We analyzed the role of IL10 promoter variants in genetic determinants of BCC susceptibility and their association with IL10 mRNA and IL-10 serum levels. Three promoter variants (- 1082 A > G, - 819 T > C, and - 592 A > C) were examined in 250 BCC patients and 250 reference group (RG) individuals.

Are we underestimating pathological fracture risk in malignant bone lesions of the proximal humerus?
Skeletal Radiol
January 2025
Department of Trauma, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery, University Hospital Jena, Am Klinikum 1, 07747, Jena, Germany.
Objective: This study is aimed at evaluating the distribution of metastatic bone disease (MBD), with a particular focus on the humerus, and its association with pathological fractures. Factors for contributing to the underestimation of fracture risk were assessed, including their impact on surgical management.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patient records of patients undergoing surgical treatment for MBD at our institution between 2005 and 2023.
