The most prevalent potentially cancerous conditions on the Indian subcontinent are leukoplakia and oral submucous fibrosis, which are mostly brought on by cigarette use and areca nut consumption. Assessment of 8-OHDG, SOD, and GPx levels in saliva of OPMD and OSCC patients with and without diabetes mellitus. ELISA ASSAY was used for finding the levels of 8-OHDG, SOD, and GPx. Add salivary samples and diluent 40 μL into the testing sample. Then add some 10 μL sample into the testing sample well, Cover it properly, and incubate for some 45 minutes at 37 °C. Aspirate each well and wash, repeat the process four times for a total of five washes, 1-3 minutes per time. HRP-conjugated detection antibody is added to each well.

Significantly fewer patients experienced grade 3 genitourinary toxicities in arm B vs arm A with a p-value = 0.048. Regarding grade 2 and grade 3 gastrointestinal toxicities, it was significantly higher in arm A compared to arm B with p-values of 0.043 and 0.021 respectively.

The V45 of the UB was higher significantly in the 3D-CRT plans compared to the SIB-IMRT plans, with a p-value of 0.003. The V45 of SB was higher in the 3D-CRT arm with a p-value of 0.001. The V45 of UB & SB was statistically less in the IMRT plans compared to the 3DCRT plans.

Fifty-four patients with LA-HNC were randomized to receive either: 70Gy in 35 fractions in 7 weeks concurrently with weekly cisplatin 40 mg/m2 (Arm A), or 55Gy in 20 fractions in 4 weeks concurrently with weekly cisplatin 35mg/m2 (Arm B). Volumetric modulated arc therapy/ Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (VMAT/IMRT) plans were done for both arms. Local control (LC), acute toxicity, and progression-free survival (PFS) were recorded and compared between both arms. A total of 34 patients were in arm A versus 20 patients in arm B, with a median follow-up period of 14.2 months (range 5.1-43.6 months). There was no significant difference in LC, PFS, or acute toxicity between both arms. Complete response occurred in 52.9%(18/34) and 45 %(9/20) in arm A and arm B respectively.

In view of the absence of distant metastasis, segmental colonic resection with 2 cm skin margin and revision colostomy was performed with a plan of adjuvant therapy thereafter. Though carcinoma at the colostomy site is uncommon, careful stomal observation and examination for surveillance should be done during each follow-up and we suggest early biopsy and colonoscopy in case of suspicion.

The second most frequent cancer in men is prostate cancer which affects 1.41 million people worldwide (WHO statistics). Stevioside is an easily available item and it was observed to significantly inhibit cancer cell growth. Our study aims to analyze Molecular mechanisms underlying the chemopreventive anticancer activity of Stevioside on human prostate cancer cell lines. Prostate cancer cells were treated with Stevioside and the level of Bcl-2, Mcl-1, and Caspase-3 was estimated respectively. Data were expressed as the mean ± SD of 3 individual experiments performed in triplicate. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA. In PC-3 cells, the effect of Stevioside extracts on cell viability was analyzed through MTT assay with a significant decrease in the percentage of viable cells with an increase in concentration, while the Mcl-1 gene with a decrease in fold change with a rise in concentration. Caspase 3 with a significant increase in fold change with an increase in concentration indicates effective apoptosis and also inhibits the Bcl-2 gene with a decrease in fold change with a rise in concentration with a significance of p<0.05. According to the results Stevioside extract considerably and strongly (by a significant fold change) suppresses the proliferation of cancer cells. The results imply that Stevioside may be turned into a natural prostate cancer medication and further investigation is necessary to establish the daily intake of Stevia products that is both safe and beneficial to the health of the human body.","PeriodicalId":44457,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Cancer Investigation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135637455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The complexity of diagnosing and treating hemangiomas is exacerbated by the lack of a unified classification capable of providing mutual understanding between pediatricians, dermatologists, pediatric surgeons, and oncologists. One of the generally recognized problems in the treatment of hemangiomas is the definition of indications for the start of treatment. A serious problem is the treatment of ulcerated hemangiomas, accompanied by infection and bleeding. The tactics of managing a patient with hemangioma require an individual approach. For example, propranolol therapy and laser removal of hemangiomas are the most effective, safe, and cosmetically acceptable methods of removal. Surgical treatment and electrocoagulation show a persistent, relapse-free effect. As part of the scientific work, a statistical study of 40 case histories of children was carried out.

There is, however, still no clear understanding of the underlying causes nor the cellular and molecular mechanisms of this disease. The spread and collateral damage caused by various types of brain tumors remain poorly understood, despite the information that is currently available about these diseases. A common means of diagnosing tumors is through cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage, and the enzymes from brain cancer cases were investigated within this hypothesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of CSF in brain cancer and BBB. This study conducted a systematic study of leakage that typically occurs at the spine level, namely in the thoracic spine region and the base of the brain along the cardiothoracic connection. This study investigated the bacteria sampling of brain cancer in CSF and determined the common method of targeting cancer cells in the brain and enzymes contained within the CSF. A further finding reveals the precise foci of this leakage and various proteins and enzymes that may be responsible for this damage, as well as evidence that the release of tumor components damages the CSF. As a result of these observations, enzymes and tumor cells are detected, and a new component identifies tumor-related CSF.","PeriodicalId":44457,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Cancer Investigation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70837081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
