The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of the estimated dose of radiation to immune cells (EDRIC) in patients with esophageal cancer receiving radical radiotherapy. We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with esophageal cancer who underwent definitive radiotherapy at our institution.

Are Academic Executives Greener? Evidence From China
Managerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the impact of executives with academic backgrounds (“academic executives”) on corporate green patents. We find that both the presence of academic executives and the proportion of academic executives have a significantly positive impact on firms' green patents, and this effect is positively associated with the firm's ...

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.The dual immunomodulatory network of radiotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma. Radiotherapy initiates its effects by inducing immunogenic cell death and DNA double‐strand breaks. Immune Activation: Cytosolic DNA from damaged cells activates the cGAS‐STING pathway, triggering IRF3/NF‐κB‐mediated type I interferon production. This enhances dendritic cell
