Placenta-specific methylation of the vitamin D 24-hydroxylase gene: implications for feedback autoregulation of active vitamin D levels at the fetomaternal interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Plasma concentrations of biologically active vitamin D (1,25- (OH)2D) are tightly controlled via feedback regulation of renal 1-hydroxylase (CYP27B1; positive) and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1; catabolic) enzymes.

Comparative Outcomes of Reinforced Tension‐Line Sutures Versus Standard Closure Techniques in Patients Undergoing Laparotomy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The reinforced tension‐line suture (RTLS) technique distributes mechanical stress more evenly than traditional closure when closing a laparotomy wound, potentially reducing incisional hernia (IH) risk. We aimed to compare outcomes of RTLS versus standard closure techniques in patients undergoing laparotomy. Methods Systematic search

Efficacy of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2019
Objective: The role of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is still controversial. Present analysis aims to evaluate the survival benefit of HIPEC in treatment of EOC patients. Methods: Articles related to

Prognostic Factors and Nomogram‐Based Prediction Models for Colorectal Cancer Patients With Synchronous Peritoneal Metastasis Undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) with synchronous peritoneal metastasis (SPM) presents poor prognosis and complex treatment challenges. This study aimed to identify independent prognostic factors and develop nomogram‐based prediction models for overall survival (OS) and progression‐free survival (PFS) in CRC patients with SPM (CRC‐SPM ...

A human ex vivo coculture model to investigate peritoneal metastasis and innovative treatment options

open access: yesPleura and Peritoneum, 2021
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is commonly observed in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The outcome of these patients is poor, with an average survival of only six months without therapy, which requires a better understanding of PM biology and new ...

Multimodal treatment of gastric cancer in the west: Where are we going? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The incidence of gastric cancer (GC) is decreasing worldwide, especially for intestinal histotype of the distal third of the stomach. On the contrary, proximal location and diffuse Lauren histotype have been reported to be generally stable over time.

Placental Extracellular Vesicles Exhibit Reduced Neurogenic Potential Linked to Changes in Their miRNA Landscape Upon HCMV Infection

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of maternal–foetal communication, regulating placental function and foetal development through the transfer of bioactive molecules. Although placental EVs play a crucial role in placental function during pregnancy, their contribution to foetal development, notably foetal brain, remains poorly ...

Transcriptomic Profiles for Elucidating Response of Bladder Intracavitary Hyperthermic Perfusion Chemotherapy in High‐Risk Nonmuscular Invasive Bladder Cancer

open access: yesCancer Medicine
Background Bladder intracavitary hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a promising treatment for non‐muscular invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the response to HIPEC remain poorly understood.

Effect of hyperthermia on improving neutrophil restoration after intraperitoneal chemotherapy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2019
Purpose: Intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy has several benefits but also can have severe hematologic side effects. We compared the effects of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and conventional IP chemotherapy on bone marrow suppression ...
