Through an international survey, we aimed to investigate the current international methods implemented for proton therapy patient selection and to determine whether COVID‐19 has impacted practice. Only one of nine respondents reported changes to patient selection approaches during the height of the pandemic, mainly ceasing use of clinical trial group ...

MGBase: A Global, Observational Registry for Collaborative Research in Myasthenia Gravis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Patient registries are valuable tools for outcomes research in rare diseases such as myasthenia gravis (MG). Existing MG registries are limited by factors including a lack of geographical scope. MGBase has been designed as a global, observational registry aimed at studying clinical practice outcomes in MG.

Intrapericardial Thymoma Presented as Pericardial Tamponade with Post-Operative Myasthenia Gravis
Background: Thymoma is an epithelial mass arising from the thymus. Most thymomas are located in the anterior mediastinum. Ectopic intrapericardial thymoma is very unusual; to date, only eight cases of pericardial thymoma have been reported. Among thymoma

Cloning of terminal transferase cDNA by antibody screening [PDF]
A cDNA library was prepared from a terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-containing thymoma in the phage vector λgt11. By screening plaques with anti-terminal transferase antibody, positive clones were identified of which some had β-galactosidase-cDNA ...

Nomogram to predict thymoma prognosis: A population‐based study of 1312 cases
A thymoma is a common cancer within the anterior mediastinum; however, the prognostic characteristics have not been established. The aim of this study was to identify the prognostic factors and develop a nomogram for the prognostic prediction of patients

Malignancies and immunoglobulin G4‐related disease
Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is associated with increased cancer risk. Malignancies affect both IgG4‐RD involved organs, such as the lung, pancreas, bile duct, and prostate, and noninvolved organs, such as the gastrointestinal duct. B‐cell neoplasms constitute a proportion of the malignancies linked to this disease.

Efficacy of rituximab in thymoma associated minimal change disease: case report
Background Thymomas have been associated with a broad spectrum of autoimmune diseases. Minimal change disease (MCD) is the most frequent pathological lesion reported. Pathophysiological mechanisms involved in secondary MCD, and linking MCD to thymoma are

Diagnosis and treatment of paraneoplastic neurological disorders [PDF]
In about two thirds of cases, patients with paraneoplastic neurological disorders present to the neurologist without a known tumor. Due to the ongoing immune response, this tumor tends to stay biologically relatively benign, and therefore difficult to ...
