Surgical Margin Status after Breast Conservation Surgery at Aga Khan University Hospital Nairobi

open access: yesThe Annals of African Surgery, 2018
Background: The conservation of the breast in a woman after diagnosis of breast cancer plays a vital role in the overall management of the patient. While the cosmetic outcome enhances the patients’ self-image, assurance of clear margins is essential in ...

Wide Surgical Margin Improves the Outcome for Patients with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs)

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, 2018
BackgroundSurgical resection is still the main treatment for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and R0 excision, regardless of surgical margins, is considered sufficient.MethodsA cohort of 79 consecutive GIST cases treated at the Karolinska ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Constant Rate Approximate Maximum Margin Algorithms

open access: yes, 2006
We present a new class of perceptron-like algorithms with margin in which the “effective” learning rate, defined as the ratio of the learning rate to the length of the weight vector, remains constant. We prove that the new algorithms converge in a finite

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

Factors affecting surgical margin positivity in robotic assisted radical prostatectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: After radical prostatectomy, surgical margin positivity is an important indicator of biochemical recurrence and progression. In our study we want to compare the surgical margin positivity rates for retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) and ...

A review of methods of intraoperative margin assessment in breast conserving surgery

open access: yesNowotwory, 2021
Breast conserving therapy is the primary treatment modality in early-stage breast cancer patients. Despite the development of methods for the intraoperative assessment of tumor margins, 20–30% of patients still require re-resection due to postoperative ...

Spatial and single‐nuclei transcriptomics reveals idiosyncratic and generic patterns in papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Matched spatial transcriptomics and single‐nuclei RNA‐seq were generated for anaplastic and BRAFV600E papillary thyroid cancers revealing generic and tumor‐specific states occurring in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment. In this context, cancer dedifferentiation mirrored organoid maturation through ordered thyroid marker gain/loss ...

The surgical resection margin [PDF]

open access: yesHead & Neck Oncology, 2009
In the treatment of cancer the fundamental surgical goal is to remove all local malignant disease and leave no residual malignant cells. Studies have demonstrated the benefit of achieving negative resection margins in terms of disease free local recurrence and overall survival.
