Prognostic Impact of Bone Mineral Density Reduction During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) in Patients Undergoing NAC Followed by Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The association between BMD reduction during NAC and the worse prognosis remains unknown, although NAC followed by esophagectomy is a standard treatment for advanced ESCC. This study appeared that BMD massive reduction was an independent prognostic factor on OS (HR, 3.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.69–6.55) and RFS (HR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.19–3.63 ...

Giant dumbbell tumor of the posterior mediastinum [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2009
Background. Giant dumbbell-shaped tumors are very rare and characterized by intra- and extraspinal propagation of different dimensions. In thoracal localization, invasive growth can lead up to rib and vertebra erosion. Case report. We presented a 54-year-

Dyspnoea and restrictive lung disease due to mediastinal and pleural lipomatosis in morbid obesity

Respirology Case Reports, 2019
Dyspnoea in obese patients can be multifactorial and complex. Mediastinal and pleural lipomatosis can be associated with obesity and is usually considered asymptomatic and benign. We report an obese 39‐year‐old man who presented with progressive dyspnoea,

NeoUNet: Towards accurate colon polyp segmentation and neoplasm detection [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Automatic polyp segmentation has proven to be immensely helpful for endoscopy procedures, reducing the missing rate of adenoma detection for endoscopists while increasing efficiency. However, classifying a polyp as being neoplasm or not and segmenting it at the pixel level is still a challenging task for doctors to perform in a limited time.

Intraoperative ultrasound: “Alternative eye” in lymph nodal dissection in non‐small cell lung cancer

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 13, Issue 23, Page 3250-3256, December 2022., 2022
Intraoperative ultrasound of mediastinal lymph nodes allows surgeons to detect metastatic lymph nodes during surgery for NSCLC. It can show the relationship between lymph nodes and surrounding structures during biopsy, improving the safety and simplicity of the operation, increasing the number of harvested lymph nodes, and reducing the risk of ...

Higher order organizational features can distinguish protein interaction networks of disease classes: a case study of neoplasms and neurological diseases [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Neoplasms (NPs) and neurological diseases and disorders (NDDs) are amongst the major classes of diseases underlying deaths of a disproportionate number of people worldwide. To determine if there exist some distinctive features in the local wiring patterns of protein interactions emerging at the onset of a disease belonging to either of these two ...
