Viability of Tumor Cells in Bone Dust: Implications for Oncologic Skull Base Surgery

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck tumors with skull base involvement may require drilling of tumor infiltrated bone. We hypothesize that bone dust generated during this process contains viable tumor cells that may seed the surgical field. Methods Tumors with gross bone invasion were drilled, and dust was collected for H&E, cell viability analysis, and ...

Cutaneous Pigmentary Changes During Setmelanotide Therapy: Dermoscopic and Confocal Findings in Two Patients

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Setmelanotide is a melanocortin‐4 receptor agonist approved for the treatment of rare forms of genetic obesity. Through off‐target activation of the melanocortin‐1 receptor, it may induce cutaneous pigmentation changes; however, data regarding its effects on melanocytic nevi remain limited.

Targeting the CD47–SIRPα phagocytic checkpoint in cancer: Biology, translational opportunities, and next‐generation therapeutic strategies

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The CD47–SIRPα axis has emerged as a critical innate immune checkpoint that suppresses macrophage‐mediated phagocytosis through a canonical “don't eat me” signal and enables tumor immune evasion. We comprehensively summarize the structural and biological features of CD47 and the molecular mechanisms underlying CD47‐mediated regulation of phagocytosis ...

Neoplastic Risk in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Besides gonadal involvement (hypogonadism, male factor infertility, and testicular hypotrophy), patients with Klinefelter syndrome (KS) may suffer from several extra‐gonadic complications, including neoplastic events. Objective The aim of this review is to summarize all major clinical evidence dealing with the association between KS

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Diagnostic Yield of Brain MRI in Pediatric Short Stature: Hypothalamic–Pituitary Lesions and Incidental Findings in Real‐World Practice

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Brain MRI is widely performed in children with short stature or suspected growth hormone deficiency(GHD) to exclude hypothalamic–pituitary (HP) pathology, yet its diagnostic yield in routine practice is uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence, clinical significance, and distribution of HP and extrahypothalamic abnormalities ...
