Re‐Awakening Public Attention to the Silent Pandemic of Cancer Among Older Adults in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, cancer is increasingly becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Despite accounting for the majority of new cancer cases and deaths, older individuals remain underrepresented in cancer research, clinical guidelines, and health ...

Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Chemotherapy‐Associated Biological Aging in Women With Early Breast Cancer

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Women threated with adjuvant chemotherapy for early breast cancer have sustained long‐term increase in p16INK4a,, a robust marker of cell senescence, suggesting a chemotherapy‐associated age acceleration. p16INK4a as well as other biomarkers may identify patients at greatest risk for senescence‐related diseases of aging.

INSTRUMENTATION FOR THYROID MEASUREMENT*

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1953
THE problems arising from the use of radioactive iodine, both in the study of thyroid physiology and in its applications to routine thyroid tests, may be roughly divided into three categories. The first is the absolute determination of the quantity of radioactive iodine within a region in the body, e.g., the thyroid gland itself; the second is the ...

A cast measuring instrument

Medical & Biological Engineering, 1972
It has been established that the centre of the hard palate does not change after tooth loss and can be used as a reference area from which changes in the alveolar bone may be measured. A mechanical instrument was made for this purpose but, although giving reproducible results, the technique was tedious and time-consuming.
