Tretinoin improves the anti-cancer response to cyclophosphamide, in a model-selective manner

open access: yesBMC Cancer
Background Chemotherapy is included in treatment regimens for many solid cancers, but when administered as a single agent it is rarely curative. The addition of immune checkpoint therapy to standard chemotherapy regimens has improved response rates and ...

Inflation, Race, and Legislation—The Erosion in the Real Value of Monetary Compensation for Miners' Occupational Lung Disease in South Africa, 1973–2024

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For much of the 20th century, the South African mining industry had a statutory compensation system for pneumoconiosis and tuberculosis characterized by gross racial inequality. This study examines the impact of inflation over the period 1973–2024 on the real value of miners' lung disease compensation, including the effect of the ...

Neoantigen load as a predictor of relapse in early-stage NSCLC: features that agonise and antagonise prognosis

open access: yesCancer Immunology, Immunotherapy
Background Neoantigen-specific immune responses may help prevent cancer recurrence. We evaluated whether neoantigen load and/or properties could predict survival in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Whole-exome sequencing (WES) data

Exposure to Occupational Inhalants and the Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. Although smoking is a well‐established risk factor for RA, the role of occupational inhalants in RA development is less well recognized.

Ongoing downplaying of the carcinogenicity of chrysotile asbestos by vested interests

open access: yesJournal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2021
Industries that mine, manufacture and sell asbestos or asbestos-containing products have a long tradition of promoting the use of asbestos, while placing the burden of economic and health costs on workers and society.

Cancer pattern in Bhutan (2014–2022): Findings from population‐based cancer registry—A pathway to monitor cancer control activities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? The establishment in 2014 of the population‐based cancer registry (PBCR) of Bhutan created new opportunities for understanding national cancer trends, which previously were anticipated from data in neighbouring countries. This study presents the first nine‐year summary of cancer patterns in Bhutan, derived from PBCR data. From 2014 to 2022,

Integrating polygenic and methylation risk scores for pleural mesothelioma risk stratification

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Asbestos exposure is a major risk factor for pleural mesothelioma (PM). Most asbestos‐exposed individuals do not develop PM, suggesting that it arises from a complex interplay between environmental and genetic factors. This study examined the utility of polygenic risk scores (PRS) and methylation risk scores (MRS) in incorporating genetic ...

Asbestos-related Lung Diseases: A Brief Update

open access: yesThe Journal of Qazvin University of Medical Sciences, 2022
Health risks from asbestos exposures have been evaluated, considering past professional histories when exposures at workplaces were higher than today. A linear no-threshold (LNT) model has been applied, although its relevance is unproven.

ULK4 and CDKN2A polymorphisms influence the risk of developing monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is an asymptomatic precursor to multiple myeloma, sharing substantial genetic features with overt malignancy. Given evidence implicating autophagy in myeloma risk, this study examined whether genetic variations in autophagy‐related genes influence MGUS susceptibility.
