Utilization of Raman spectroscopy to identify breast cancer from the water content in surgical samples containing blue dye
(Wiley, 2020-12-16)Breast conserving surgery (BCS) for breast cancer aims for optimal oncological results with minimal tissue excision. Positive margins due to insufficient resection results in significant numbers of patients requiring ... -
Root-cause analyses of missed opportunities for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer in patients with inflammatory bowel disease
(Wiley, 2021-01)Background: Colonoscopic surveillance in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) leads to earlier detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) and reduces CRC-associated mortality. However, it is limited by poor adherence ... -
British Gynaecological Cancer Society (BGCS) cervical cancer guidelines: Recommendations for practice
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)Cervix cancer in many countries is declining and screening programmes and immunisation will reduce the incidence in the next few decades. This guideline attempts to cover management of invasive disease reflecting diagnosis ... -

Increased isoform-specific phosphodiesterase 4D expression is associated with pathology and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)Pharmacological phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) inhibition shows therapeutic potential to restore memory function in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but will likely evoke adverse side effects. As PDE4D encodes multiple isoforms, ... -
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists as neuroprotective agents for ischemic stroke: a systematic scoping review
(Atypon, 2021-01)Stroke mortality and morbidity is expected to rise. Despite considerable recent advances within acute ischemic stroke treatment, scope remains for development of widely applicable neuroprotective agents. Glucagon-like ... -
Real-world adherence, persistence, and in-class switching during use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis involving 594,138 patients with type 2 diabetes
(Springer, 2021-01)Aims: Medication adherence and persistence are important determinants of treatment success in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the real-world adherence, persistence, and ... -
Pathogenic germline variants in patients with features of hereditary renal cell carcinoma: Evidence for further locus heterogeneity
(Wiley, 2021-01)Inherited renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is associated with multiple familial cancer syndromes but most individuals with features of non-syndromic inherited RCC do not harbor variants in the most commonly tested renal cancer ... -
Presumption of guilt for T cells in type 1 diabetes: lead culprits or partners in crime depending on age of onset?
(Springer, 2021-01)Available evidence provides arguments both for and against a primary pathogenic role for T cells in human type 1 diabetes. Genetic susceptibility linked to HLA Class II lends strong support. Histopathology documents HLA ... -
