Exploring the Effects of Frailty and Sarcopenia on Dysphagia in Head and Neck Cancer: A Scoping Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty and sarcopenia may influence head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment outcomes, including dysphagia. Current understanding of this relationship, however, remains limited. This scoping review aimed to synthesize existing evidence on the relationship between frailty and/or sarcopenia and dysphagia in adults with HNC.

Pretreatment Cachexia Index Is Associated With Severe Treatment Toxicity and Overall Survival in HPV‐Negative Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Cancer cachexia is characterized by skeletal muscle loss, poor nutrition, and systemic inflammation and is common in head and neck cancer. We evaluated whether the Cachexia Index (CXI) predicts treatment toxicity and survival in HPV‐negative HNSCC.

The Association Between Muscle Health and Quality of Life in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer: A Systematic Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) are at risk of impaired muscle health due to metabolic disturbances, reduced nutritional intake, and treatment‐related toxicities. Because muscle health supports physical capacity and independence, its decline may affect quality of life (QoL).

Longitudinal Associations of Oxaliplatin Treatment With Chemotherapy‐Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Colorectal cancer Survivors up to 2 Years Post‐Treatment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a potentially long‐term consequence of oxaliplatin‐based chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC). Oxaliplatin dosing is based on body surface area (BSA), but lean body mass (LBM) may influence susceptibility to long‐term CIPN.

Discrepant Urinary Findings Between Dipstick Protein and Sulfosalicylic Acid Test in a Patient With Hyaline Casts: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
In this post‐transplant patient, increased hyaline casts with negative dipstick protein but positive SSA testing occurred during evolving acute kidney injury and resolved with renal recovery. This discordant urinalysis pattern may warrant confirmatory protein testing and correlation with serial renal function in patients at high risk of AKI.

A Pain in the Buttocks: Practice Article for Sonographically Imaging the Quadratus Femoris and Ischiofemoral Impingement

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Hip external rotation can cause compression of the quadratus femoris (QF) between the ischial tuberosity and lesser trochanter of the femur, resulting in pain in the buttock, hip, and groin which can radiate down the leg. Ultrasound imaging can demonstrate dynamic impingement of the QF, including symptom provocation.

Morphological and Pathological Variability in Midrib and Stalk Isolates of Colletotrichum falcatum, the Cause of Red Rot of Sugarcane in North India

open access: yesInternational Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2015
Morphological, cultural and pathogenic variability of seven isolates of C. falcatum revealed that the average conidial size of midrib and stalk isolates varied from 23.0-27.5×5.7-7.0 µm and 26.8-35.0×7.6-8.0 µm respectively.

Heterogeneous effects of donor‐related risk factors in 954 pediatric liver transplantations

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Accepting a suitable donor for a child awaiting pediatric liver transplantation (pLT) is increasingly challenging. Donor‐specific risk factors influence post‐transplant outcomes, but evidence in pediatric patients remains inconsistent.

myo‐Inositol's role in laying hens’ active gastrointestinal microbiota: a strain comparison

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND myo‐Inositol (MI) is a cyclitol involved in cellular metabolism and phytate degradation, yet its influence on the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota of laying hens remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of graded dietary MI supplementation on the active GIT microbial communities of two commercial laying ...
