Self-measured leg circumference for the detection of lymphedema among men with prostate cancer: a reliability study

Acta Oncologica
Background and purpose: Early lymphedema detection is crucial to timely treatment, and home-based monitoring holds promise for early detection of leg lymphedema among at-risk cancer survivors.

Lack of impact of the ALDH2 rs671 variant on breast cancer development in Japanese BRCA1/2‐mutation carriers

Cancer Medicine, 2023
The aldehyde degrading function of the ALDH2 enzyme is impaired by Glu504Lys polymorphisms (rs671, termed A allele), which causes alcohol flushing in east Asians, and elevates the risk of esophageal cancer among habitual drinkers.

Prevalence of lymphedema symptoms across cancer diagnoses and association with depression, pain interference and health-related quality of life

Acta Oncologica
Background and purpose: Lymphedema is a debilitating late effect of cancer treatments, yet its prevalence beyond breast cancer remains understudied. This study examined the prevalence of lymphedema symptoms across cancer diagnoses and their association ...

Effective Dynamics of the Matrix Big Bang

, 2006
We study the leading quantum effects in the recently introduced Matrix Big Bang model. This amounts to a study of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory compactified on the Milne orbifold.

Slice Stretching Effects for Maximal Slicing of a Schwarzschild Black Hole

, 2004
Slice stretching effects such as slice sucking and slice wrapping arise when foliating the extended Schwarzschild spacetime with maximal slices. For arbitrary spatial coordinates these effects can be quantified in the context of boundary conditions where

FANCD2 Binds CtIP and Regulates DNA-End Resection during DNA Interstrand Crosslink Repair

Cell Reports, 2014
The Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway is critically involved in the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells and the suppression of carcinogenesis. A key FA protein, FANCD2, is monoubiquitinated and accumulates in chromatin in response to DNA interstrand ...
