Management of brown tumor of spine with primary hyperparathyroidism
Medicine, 2019 Rationale: Brown tumor (BT) is a rare benign lesion in skeletal system. It is especially rare secondary to primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT). The differential diagnosis can be misleading due to its diversified clinical characteristics.

Spores of Clostridium engineered for clinical efficacy and safety cause regression and cure of tumors in vivo. [PDF]
, 2014 Spores of some species of the strictly anaerobic bacteria Clostridium naturally target and partially lyse the hypoxic cores of tumors, which tend to be refractory to conventional therapies. The anti-tumor effect can be augmented by engineering strains to

A survey of open questions in adaptive therapy: bridging mathematics and clinical translation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Adaptive therapy is a dynamic cancer treatment protocol that updates (or "adapts") treatment decisions in anticipation of evolving tumor dynamics. This broad term encompasses many possible dynamic treatment protocols of patient-specific dose modulation or dose timing.

Brown tumor of multiple facial bones associated with primary hyperparathyroidism
Medicine, 2018 Rationale: Only 4.5% of brown tumors involve facial bones; of these, solitary bone involvement is usual. Brown tumors of multiple facial bones are extremely rare.

Developing a Machine Learning-Based Clinical Decision Support Tool for Uterine Tumor Imaging [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a rare but aggressive malignancy. On imaging, it is difficult to differentiate LMS from, for example, degenerated leiomyoma (LM), a prevalent but benign condition. We curated a data set of 115 axial T2-weighted MRI images from 110 patients (mean [range] age=45 [17-81] years) with UTs that included five different tumor ...

A rare occurrence of primary hyperparathyroidism with brown tumor in the left maxilla
Gülhane Tıp DergisiBrown tumors are rare skeletal manifestations of hyperparathyroidism. It is a form of osteitis fibrosa cystica caused by hyperparathyroidism due to excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone. Then, hypercalcemia results in excessive osteoclastic activity

Early Detection and Localization of Pancreatic Cancer by Label-Free Tumor Synthesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Early detection and localization of pancreatic cancer can increase the 5-year survival rate for patients from 8.5% to 20%. Artificial intelligence (AI) can potentially assist radiologists in detecting pancreatic tumors at an early stage. Training AI models require a vast number of annotated examples, but the availability of CT scans obtaining early ...
