RAIDS atlas of significant genetic and protein biomarkers in cervical cancer

open access: yesJournal of Gynecologic Oncology, 2023
Loss of function in epigenetic acting genes together with driver alterations in the PIK3CA pathway have been shown significantly associated with poor outcome in cervical squamous cell cancer. More recently, a CoxBoost analysis identified 16 gene alterations and 30 high level activated proteins to be of high interest, due to their association with ...

Effects of occipital-atlas stabilization in the upper cervical spine kinematics: an in vitro study [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
AbstractThis study compares upper cervical spine range of motion (ROM) in the three cardinal planes before and after occiput-atlas (C0–C1) stabilization. After the dissection of the superficial structures to the alar ligament and the fixation of C2, ten cryopreserved upper cervical columns were manually mobilized in the three cardinal planes of ...

Dystopic Os odontoideum: A rare cause of atlantoaxial instability

open access: yesJournal of Spinal Surgery, 2017
Os odontoideum is a relatively common developmental anomaly of the craniovertebral junction (CVJ), which is usually an incidental finding on spine imaging. But the dystopic variety of os odontoideum is uncommon and can be baleful.

Yin Yang 1 is associated with cancer stem cell transcription factors (SOX2, OCT4, BMI1) and clinical implication. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The transcription factor Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is frequently overexpressed in cancerous tissues compared to normal tissues and has regulatory roles in cell proliferation, cell viability, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, metastasis and drug/immune resistance.

Cervical Spinal Stenosis and Myelopathy Due to Atlas Hypoplasia

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Medical Association, 2007
This paper describes a patient who presented at our hospital with neurologic symptoms due to congenital cervical spinal stenosis at the atlas level. Congenital atlantal stenosis is usually due to hypoplasia of the posterior arch of the atlas. It is a rare cause of spinal stenosis, and only 12 symptomatic patients with isolated atlantal stenosis have ...
