Mutation signature analysis identifies increased mutation caused by tobacco smoke associated DNA adducts in larynx squamous cell carcinoma compared with oral cavity and oropharynx. [PDF]
Squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (HNSCC) arise from mucosal keratinocytes of the upper aero-digestive tract. Despite a common cell of origin and similar driver-gene mutations which divert cell fate from differentiation to proliferation ...

Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.

Short- and Long-term Opioid Use in Patients with Oral and Oropharynx Cancer
Objective Opioid use and abuse is a national health care crisis, yet opioids remain the cornerstone of pain management in cancer. We sought to determine the risk of acute and chronic opioid use with head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) treatment ...

Stage T4B head and neck cancer survival outcome comparisons based on treatment modality: is surgery a viable treatment option? [PDF]
IMPORTANCE: Advanced stage head and neck cancers are often deemed unresectable due to the aggressive nature of the cancer. In evaluating survival patterns of patients with stage IVb tumors, it is valuable to determine whether patients who undergo ...

A mutually exclusive screening system is established to identify negative regulators of highly plastic genes. Dual specificity phosphatase (DUSP9) is a novel negative regulatory molecule of PD‐L1 by dephosphorylating STAT3, and acts as a target molecule in combination with PD‐1 antibody for tumor immunotherapy and a new clinical biomarker for ...

Evaluation of human obstructive sleep apnea using computational fluid dynamics. [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity might be correlated to the flow characteristics of the upper airways. We aimed to investigate the severity of OSA based on 3D models constructed from CT scans coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD ...
