Association of Urinary pH With Overall Survival in Patients With Stage IV Cancer: A Single‐Center Retrospective Cohort Study

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This single‐center retrospective cohort study evaluated whether, among patients with stage IV cancer who participated in a pragmatic “alkalization therapy”—defined as a low potential renal acid load diet plus oral sodium bicarbonate and/or potassium/sodium citrate—urinary pH was associated with long‐term survival.

Differential sensitivity to SHH signaling and neural crest‐mediated Gas1 expression regulate jaw size during development and evolution

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Developmental control of jaw size is crucial to prevent birth defects and facilitate evolutionary adaptation. We have shown that jaw size is established by neural crest mesenchyme (NCM), which are progenitor cells that migrate into the mandibular primordia and produce the jaws.

Genetic variants of EcPV2 E6 and E7 in equine genital and oronasal squamous cell carcinoma

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Since its discovery in 2008, equine papillomavirus type 2 (EcPV2) has been detected in up to 100% of equine genital and up to 40% of equine oronasal squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Preliminary sequence data point to the existence of EcPV2 E6 and E7 oncogene variants compared to the British reference sequence from 2008.

Immunomodulatory Effect of Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Scale Gelatin Peptides in RAW264.7 Macrophages and Caenorhabditis elegans

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Currently, small‐molecular‐weight collagen peptides are a research hotspot in functional factor development due to their high bioavailability and diverse bioactivities. In this study, gelatin was extracted from tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) scales by hot water extraction, followed by pepsin hydrolysis and ultrafiltration to obtain the < 3 ...

Intensive Swallowing Rehabilitation for Head and Neck Cancer Survivors With Chronic Dysphagia: Outcomes From a Prospective Multicentre Cohort Study With 6‐Month Follow‐Up

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic dysphagia persists in some head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors despite preventive exercises, negatively impacting quality of life. Evidence for effective rehabilitation strategies remains limited. Methods This prospective cohort study included 34 HNC survivors (≥ 1 year post‐treatment) who completed a 3‐week intensive ...

Longitudinal Swallowing and Salivary Changes With CLR 131 and Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with recurrent head and neck cancer (HNC) often present with severe, persistent dysphagia and xerostomia following prior chemoradiation. Although swallowing impairments and salivary dysfunction have been reported in this population, prior longitudinal studies have not examined changes in salivary composition or how these ...
