Dopamine: The Essential Bridge Mediating Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hippocampus‐Dependent Learning and Memory Impairments

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea is a clinical syndrome that triggers a series of pathophysiologic changes, including disturbed sleep architecture, chronic intermittent hypoxia and hypercapnia, and ultimately severe cognitive dysfunction. The hippocampus plays a key role in various cognitive processes such as learning and memory.

Empty Versus Full Bladder Protocols in Radiotherapy Planning for Localised Prostate Cancer: A Dosimetric Study

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background When planning prostate radiotherapy, full bladder preparation is widely used to displace bowel and bladder from high‐dose regions but is difficult to reproduce and can prolong workflows. Methods Twenty men with localised prostate cancer ± seminal vesicles underwent CT simulation with full and empty bladders.

Treatment patterns and outcomes in perineal primary vulvar cancer—a population‐based Swedish cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Perineal vulvar squamous cell carcinoma was identified in 147 of 571 cases. Owing to the anatomical proximity of these tumors to the anus, treatment selection may present considerable clinical challenges. The majority of patients (53%) underwent surgical treatment alone, whereas 23% received surgery combined with adjuvant radiotherapy and 24% were ...

Sex Differences in Health‐Related Quality of Life in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer—A Prospective Study

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To analyse sex differences in health‐related quality of life (HRQL) before, during and up to 3 months posttreatment of head and neck cancer, and to examine the importance of salivary secretion rate for HRQL posttreatment. Methods Patients were recruited before starting curative oncologic treatment.

Descriptive analysis of screen‐detected versus clinically diagnosed lung cancer cases: evidence of earlier stage shift and treatment differences

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer‐related deaths worldwide, largely due to late‐stage diagnosis. Lung cancer screening by computed tomography (CT) reduces mortality by detecting cancers earlier in high‐risk individuals, prompting Australia to launch the National Lung Cancer Screening Program (NLCSP) in 2025.

Dosimetric study for spine stereotactic body radiation therapy: magnetic resonance guided linear accelerator versus volumetric modulated arc therapy

Radiology and Oncology, 2019
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) given in 1-5 fractions is an effective treatment for vertebral metastases. Real-time magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) improves soft tissue contrast, which translates into accurate delivery of spine

Methamphetamine Enantiomers: From Chemical Synthesis to Biological Fate

Chirality, Volume 38, Issue 9, September 2026.
Methamphetamine is an amphetamine‐type stimulant characterized by a single stereogenic center, resulting in two enantiomers, (R)‐(−)‐methamphetamine and (S)‐(+)‐methamphetamine, with distinct biological and pharmacological profiles. These forms exhibit differences in central nervous system activity, metabolism, excretion, and overall physiological ...

Quantification of 10B and 11B in Biological Samples in Translational Science and Clinical Applications for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT)

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 1362-1389, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a targeted radiotherapy that exploits the selective accumulation of the 10B isotope within tumors, followed by irradiation with low‐energy neutrons to induce high linear energy transfer particles with short path lengths, resulting in localized tumor cell destruction while sparing surrounding healthy ...
