Article Synopsis
- Radiation esophagitis is a common and bothersome side effect of high-dose thoracic radiation therapy, and a new technique called Contralateral Esophagus Sparing Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (CES-IMRT) aims to reduce this issue in lung cancer treatment.* -
- A study involving 183 non-small cell lung cancer patients found that those who received CES-IMRT experienced significantly less frequent and severe pain related to esophagitis compared to those who did not receive this technique.* -
- While CES-IMRT improved pain management, it did not affect other important outcomes like disease progression or survival rates, suggesting this approach is effective without compromising overall cancer treatment results.*
Randomized controlled trials between dorsal root ganglion thermal radiofrequency, pulsed radiofrequency and steroids for the management of intractable metastatic back pain in thoracic vertebral body.

Department of Anaesthesia, ICU and Pain Management, National Cancer Institute, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt.
Background: Bone metastasis is a complication of various cancers causing severe pain. The current modalities for the treatment of metastatic axial pain include pharmacological, surgical and vertebral augmentation techniques, each of which has its own challenges.
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF), thermal radiofrequency (RF) and steroids on dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in patients with thoracic axial pain due to vertebral metastasis.
Early Clinical Outcomes of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy/Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy Combination in Comparison with Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy Alone in Oropharynx Cancer Patients.

March 2021
Samsung Medical Center, Department of Radiation Oncology, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul 06351, Korea.
Purpose: To report the early clinical outcomes of combining intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) in comparison with IMRT alone in treating oropharynx cancer (OPC) patients.
Materials And Methods: The medical records of 148 OPC patients who underwent definitive radiotherapy (RT) with concurrent systemic therapy, from January 2016 till December 2019 at Samsung Medical Center, were retrospectively reviewed. During the 5.

From the Department of Medicine, University Health Network (JJL); Department of Anesthesia, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (AQA); Institute of Human Nutrition, Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, New York (HRG); Department of Biostatistics, Dalla Lana School of Public Health (JJM); Department of Medicine (CMB); Institute for Health Policy Management and Evaluation, University of Toronto (CMB); and Department of Medicine, Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (CMB).
Physician misconduct is of serious concern to patient safety and quality of care. Currently, there are limited data on disciplinary proceedings involving internal medicine (IM) physicians.The aim of this study was to investigate the number and nature of disciplinary cases among IM physicians compared with those of other disciplined physicians.

In this study, a sensitive, specific, precise and accurate method for lisonopril quantitative determination in human serum was developed and validated. The method comprises lisinopril isolation from serum by means of solid-phase extraction followed by its quantification by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Chromatographic separation was performed at 55 degrees C on Kromasil C(18) 5 micrometer 250x3.
