Three-hundred and fifty nine out-patients with no signs of breast disease, who had been seen at the Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic for problems related to their perimenopausal state, were also screened at the Breast Pathology Center to exclude the presence of hormone-sensitive neoplastic disease, in view of possible hormone therapy. The breast cancer incidence detected (1.7%), and the importance of thermography in evaluating the metabolic-functional aspects of the breast, confirm the utility of breast screening in all perimenopausal patients.

Background: Breast cancer is a frequently diagnosed malignant disease and the primary cause of mortality among women with cancer worldwide. The therapy options are influenced by the molecular subtype due to the intricate nature of the condition, which consists of various subtypes. By focusing on the activation of receptors, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase can be utilized as an effective drug target for therapeutic purposes of breast cancer.

Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality, with aggressive, treatment-resistant tumors posing significant challenges. Current combination therapies and imaging approaches often fail due to disparate pharmacokinetics and difficulties correlating drug delivery with therapeutic response. In this study, we developed radionuclide-activatable theranostic nanoparticles (NPs) comprising folate receptor-targeted bimetallic organo-nanoparticles (Gd-Ti-FA-TA NPs).

Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a pivotal role in the development, prognosis, and treatment of breast cancer. This study aimed to develop a Treg-associated gene signature that contributes to predict prognosis and therapy benefits in breast cancer.
Methods: Treg-associated genes were screened based on single-cell RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) in TISCH2 database and the bulk RNA-seq in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Background: Despite advances in modern medicine, an increasing number of breast cancer (BC) patients are turning to complementary and alternative medicine, such as phytotherapy. Instead of being prescribed by breast medical oncologists, patients are often seeking out phytotherapy themselves. They typically resort to herbal medicine as an alternative treatment to alleviate symptoms and side effects and enhance their quality of life during cancer treatment.

National Centre for Radiotherapy, Oncology and Nuclear Medicine, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra, Ghana.
Background: Cancer is a major public health challenge in West Africa, with a significant proportion of cancer-related deaths attributed to distant metastasis. De novo metastatic cancer (DnMC), where metastasis is detected at diagnosis, presents considerable therapeutic challenges, particularly in limited-resource settings where novel treatments are often unavailable and/or unaffordable.
Aim: To determine the prevalence, incidence and clinicopathological characteristics of patients diagnosed with DnMC at a major radiotherapy center in West Africa.
