Decoding Gene Expression Changes in Cerebral Tumors: Before and After Radiotherapy
Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cerebral tumors, particularly in pediatric patients, pose a significant challenge in oncology. Radiotherapy is a crucial component of the multimodal treatment approach for these tumors. Understanding the molecular basis of these tumors, particularly their response to radiotherapy, is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and patient ...

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a recognized complication of radiotherapy. However, calvarial ORN (ORNC) following treatment for cutaneous malignancies is poorly understood. Shedding light on the limited evidence to date, this study aims to summarize existing evidence and highlight the research gaps.

Three and Four Courses of Radiation for Children with Recurrent Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Re‐irradiation (RT2) for children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is increasingly used upon recurrence; however, limited data are available for evaluating additional courses of radiotherapy (RT) for DIPG. The purpose of this case series was to report our institutional experience in treating patients with recurrent DIPG ...

Long‐Term Projections of Childhood Cancer Incidence and Prevalence in Ontario, Canada Until 2040
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The prevalence of childhood cancer continues to rise due to increases in cancer incidence and advances in treatment, leading to better survival. We generated epidemiologic projections for childhood cancer, by cancer type, in Ontario, Canada, until 2040.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Malignant rhabdoid tumors occasionally develop along cranial nerves, but clinical, histopathological, and molecular features have not been examined in larger series. Procedure We retrospectively interrogated data from the European Rhabdoid Registry, EU‐RHAB, to identify malignant rhabdoid tumors affecting cranial nerves.
