The Choice Between Definitive Radiotherapy and Surgery for Cervical Cancer With Different Histology in Current Clinical Practice

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For cervical cancer, the choice between definitive radiotherapy (RT) and surgery has long been a topic of debate. Clinical factors, including histology and tumor burden, have been examined in prior studies. Given recent advances in RT and the incorporation of concurrent chemotherapy, our study seeks to assess the optimal treatment modality for

Synthesis of Samarium‐incorporated X‐ray‐sensitive nanoparticles and hydrogels: Diverse applications in radiation monitoring and dynamic information display

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Sm3+‐doped α‐NaLuF4 and β‐NaLuF4 were synthesized. The X‐ray‐activated persistent luminescence abilities and afterglow properties can be well controlled. Sm3+‐doped β‐NaLuF4 exhibits remarkable afterglow ability. The hexagonal β‐NaLuF4:3%Sm3+‐incorporated hydrogel can be further programmed with other types of hydrogels to enable tunable emission ...

Timing for Radiotherapy Initiation After Dental Extraction and Risk of Osteoradionecrosis in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are advised to undergo dental extraction of teeth with poor prognosis prior to radiotherapy (RT) initiation to prevent osteoradionecrosis (ORN). However, insufficient healing time may result in persistent extraction wounds during RT, which constitute a potential risk factor for ORN, whereas ...
