Estimating blood loss after birth: Using simulated clinical examples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Aim: To determine the accuracy of the estimation of blood loss using simulated clinical examples. Setting: Over 100 attendees came together at a seminar about postpartum haemorrhage in June 2006. Five blood loss assessment stations were constructed, each

Highly multiplexed digital PCR assay for simultaneous quantification of variant allele frequencies and copy number alterations of KRAS and GNAS in pancreatic cancer precursors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples

Germline variants in CDKN2A wild‐type melanoma prone families

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Among melanoma‐prone families, wild‐type for CDKN2A and CDK4, some have pathogenic variants in genes not usually linked to melanoma. Furthermore, rare XP‐related variants and variants in MC1R are enriched in such families. Germline pathogenic variants in CDKN2A are well established as an underlying cause of familial malignant melanoma. While pathogenic

Targeting the AKT/mTOR pathway attenuates the metastatic potential of colorectal carcinoma circulating tumor cells in a murine xenotransplantation model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

Anaemia, blood loss and colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common cancer worldwide and strikes both sexes. The age-adjusted 5-year survival in Sweden was 60% in the early 21 st century.

Inhibitor of DNA binding‐1 is a key regulator of cancer cell vasculogenic mimicry

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Elevated expression of transcriptional regulator inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1) promoted cancer cell‐mediated vasculogenic mimicry (VM) through regulation of pro‐angiogenic and pro‐cancerous genes (e.g. VE‐cadherin (CDH5), TIE2, MMP9, DKK1). Higher ID1 expression also increased metastases to the lung and the liver.

INTRAOPERATIVE BLOOD LOSS IN HEAD AND NECK CANCER OPERATIONS: A RETROSPECTIVE OBSERVATIONAL STUDY IN A TERTIARY CARE SURGICAL ONCOLOGY CENTER IN CENTRAL INDIA

open access: yesNational Journal of Medical Research, 2020
Introduction: Head and Neck cancer surgical operations are often associated with major blood loss requiring substitution, usually by homologous blood transfusion. The goal of this study is to retrospectively examine the intraoperative blood loss for the

Safety and efficacy of tranexamic acid for prevention of obstetric haemorrhage. An updated systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background. A number of clinical systematic review and meta-analysis have been published on the use of tranexamic in the obstetric setting. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of tranexamic acid in reducing blood ...

MET and NF2 alterations confer primary and early resistance to first‐line alectinib treatment in ALK‐positive non‐small‐cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Alectinib resistance in ALK+ NSCLC depends on treatment sequence and EML4‐ALK variants. Variant 1 exhibited off‐target resistance after first‐line treatment, while variant 3 and later lines favored on‐target mutations. Early resistance involved off‐target alterations, like MET and NF2, while on‐target mutations emerged with prolonged therapy.

Relationship Between Surgery Timing and Hidden Blood Loss in Proximal Femoral Nailing of Pertrochanteric Fractures in Elderly Patients

open access: yesPhilippine Journal of Orthopaedics
Objectives. Pertrochanteric fractures, commonly incurred by the elderly from low-energy falls, require surgical management. Visible blood loss in the perioperative period is inconsistent with the big drop in hemoglobin seen postoperatively.
