The utility of survivin mRNA as a diagnostic biomarker in lung cancer with malignant pleural effusion

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2012
Introduction: The sensitivity of conventional cytology for the detection of malignant cells in pleural effusion is insufficient. Since survivin is frequently overexpressed in lung cancer, it might play a role in oncogenesis and progression of the tumor ...

Emerging Techniques in Minimally Invasive Surgery in Hematologic Malignancies

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic malignancies represent the most common cancers in children. While the mainstays of treatment are chemotherapy and potentially hematopoietic stem cell transplant, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has a role in the diagnosis and management of complications related both to disease and therapy as well as common pediatric surgical ...

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.

Diagnostic utility of pleural fluid and serum markers in differentiation between malignant and non-malignant pleural effusions

European Journal of Medical Research, 2009
Study objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of four different tumor markers: cancer antigen 125 (CA-125), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA 21-1) and neuron specific enolase (NSE) in patients with malignant and non ...

Pneumothorax ex vacuo in a Patient with Malignant Pleural Effusion After PleurX Catheter Placement [PDF]

, 2015
Introduction Pneumothorax ex vacuo (“without vaccuum”) is a type of pneumothorax that can develop in patients with large pleural effusions. Unlike spontaneous or tension pneumothoraces, pneumothorax ex vacuo does not require chest tube placement. Careful

HHV‐8/KSHV in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Gaps of Knowledge and Future Directions

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Risk mitigation strategies, including donors/recipients screening, DNAemia monitoring in recipients at risk, CNI‐to‐mTOR inhibitors switch, antivirals, and rituximab for KICS, may mitigate the impact of HHV‐8/KSHV infection in SOT. This review provides an update on KICS, identifies research gaps, and summarizes advances in screening and management ...
