Effect of anastrozole on bone mineral density and lipid profiles when used to prevent breast cancer in high risk postmenopausal women [PDF]
, 2012 PhDThe role of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) in breast cancer has expanded since their introduction in the mid-1990s. They are superior to tamoxifen in the treatment of postmenopausal women with oestrogen dependant tumours in the metastatic, neoadjuvant ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Cigarette smoking and mammographic breast density among Polish women [PDF]
, 2021 ObjectivesHigh mammographic breast density (MBD) is one of the strongest breast cancer risk factors. The results of some epidemiological studies suggest that one of the lifestyle factors likely altering breast density is cigarette smoking.

Automatic classification of breast density [PDF]
IEEE International Conference on Image Processing 2005, 2005 A recent trend in digital mammography is computer-aided diagnosis systems, which are computerised tools designed to assist radiologists. Most of these systems are used for the automatic detection of abnormalities. However, recent studies have shown that their sensitivity is significantly decreased as the density of the breast increases. This dependence

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Estimation of the Factors Affecting Breast Compression Parameters in Mammography
Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil VidyapeethBackground: Breast cancer which has a high mortality rate is now known to decrease due to early detection with the advent of digital mammography screening. During mammography, compression of the breast is highly variable.

Generalized breast density metrics
Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2018 Mammograms represent data that can inform future risk of breast cancer. Data from two case-control study populations were analyzed. Population 1 included women (N = 180 age matched case-control pairs) with mammograms acquired with one indirect x-ray conversion mammography unit.
