Pattern of Progression of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders From Real‐World Data: A 24‐Year Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral potentially malignant disorder (OPMD) prognostication is limited by uncertainty of which lesions will progress and the aggressiveness of lesion progression. We defined patterns and kinetics of progression in a large cohort of OPMD subjected to serial clinical and histologic examinations. Methods This 24‐year study evaluated the

Cigarette Smoke Exposure Attenuates T2R‐Mediated Apoptosis in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tobacco use is associated with worse outcomes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Bitter taste receptor (T2R) activation induces apoptosis via calcium‐dependent signaling, and higher T2R expression correlates with increased survival in HNSCC.

Tobacco-Specific Nitrosamines in the Tobacco and Mainstream Smoke of U.S. Commercial Cigarettes

, 2016
Tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) are N-nitroso-derivatives of pyridine-alkaloids (e.g., nicotine) present in tobacco and cigarette smoke. Two TSNAs, N′-nitrosonornicotine (NNN) and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK), are included ...

Impact of Smoking on Treatment Outcomes in Patients With Human Papillomavirus‐Related Oropharyngeal Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with HPV+ oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) have worse outcomes with longer smoking history (≥ 10 pack‐years). This has been confirmed in trials of primary radiotherapy but not surgery, suggesting differential smoking impact by treatment received. We assessed smoking‐related outcomes at a single institution.

Incidence and Site‐Specific Risk Factors of Jaw Osteoradionecrosis for Head and Neck Patients in the IMRT/VMAT Era: Evidence From a Large, Hospital‐Based Cohort

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw remains a serious late complication of head and neck cancer (HNC) radiotherapy. Although intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric‐modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) are expected to reduce ORN risk, large real‐world data in the modern era are limited.

The "father of stress" meets "big tobacco": Hans Selye and the tobacco industry.

, 2011
The concept of stress remains prominent in public health and owes much to the work of Hans Selye (1907-1982), the "father of stress." One of his main allies in this work has never been discussed as such: the tobacco industry. After an analysis of tobacco

Poor Diet and Oral Cavity Cancer Risk in Smoking and Non‐Smoking Men and Women: An Analysis of Three US Cohorts

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Oral cavity cancer (OCC) incidence is rising among non‐smokers and younger individuals without traditional risk factors. While carcinogenic exposures such as tobacco and alcohol are well studied, the association between unhealthy dietary patterns and OCC has been minimally explored.

Safe Omission of Postoperative Neck Irradiation in Selected pN0 Patients With Locally Advanced Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC); however, the indication for neck irradiation (NI) in pN0 patients remains debatable. We evaluated whether the omission of NI compromises outcomes in pT3–T4 pN0 patients treated with adequate neck dissection (ND).

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control
