Preoperative circulating tumor cells integrated with imaging analysis for prognostic evaluation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Strong representation of the Kaplan–Meier and hazard estimators for censored data with m-widely acceptable dependence

Statistical Theory and Related Fields
This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of the Kaplan–Meier and hazard estimators for censored survival time data. We conduct this analysis under the assumption of m-widely acceptable (m-WA) dependence, a generalized form of weak correlation ...

Interferon beta drives therapy resistance in a patient‐derived model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Interferon type 1 (IFN‐1) production and signaling is associated with the acquisition of therapy resistance, following chronic DNA damage, via Interferon‐related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS) gene expression. An alternative, DNA damage‐independent role of sustained IFN‐1 mediated resistance was identified and characterized by the emergence of ...

Cumulative hazard ratio estimation for adverse events data from two-stage dynamic treatment regimes

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
Accurate analysis of adverse events in two-stage dynamic treatment regimes is complicated by the presence of competing risks, such as death, which can preclude the observation of an adverse event and introduce bias into standard survival estimates.

Survival in the pre-senile dementia frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 proteinopathy: effects of genetic, demographic and neuropathological variables

Folia Neuropathologica, 2016
Factors associated with survival were studied in 84 neuropathologically documented cases of the pre-senile dementia frontotemporal dementia lobar degeneration (FTLD) with transactive response (TAR) DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43) proteinopathy ...

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Characterization of the variable cow's age at last calving as a measurement of longevity by using the Kaplan–Meier estimator and the Cox model

Animal, 2013
In most studies on beef cattle longevity, only the cows reaching a given number of calvings by a specific age are considered in the analyses. With the aim of evaluating all cows with productive life in herds, taking into consideration the different forms

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN JOB SEEKING DURATION AND THE TIME OF UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT. SEARCHING THEORY ON LABOUR MARKET

Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Oeconomica, 2014
The aim of the article is to analyze the influence of time of unemployment benefit on the time of registered unemployment. In research were used a duration analysis methods (Kaplan-Meier estimator, Cox regression model).
