The collected data were analyzed using SPSS V20.0. Out of 384 participants, 55.4% were male and 44.6% were female. Growth was found in 43.5% of specimens. Hematogenous cancer growth was 40.7% while 45.5% of growth was among non-hematogenous cancer patients. Escherichia coli were reported 38.9%, Klebsiella spp . 20.4%. Pseudomonas spp. 19.2%, Citrobacter spp . with 9.0%, and Acinetobacter spp . with 4.8%. Like-wise Staphylococcus aureus and Enterobacter aerogenes contributed 3.6% and 3.0% respectively.

The treatment of such patients is challenging as they are at a higher risk of developing long-term side effects. In this case series, we report 3 cases of adult cancers that presented at an unusually younger age highlighting the fact that there is a recent shift in paradigm in terms of age of presentation of cancer. We present 3 cases namely, supraglottic larynx squamous cell carcinoma in a 21-year-old female, adenocarcinoma of the rectum in a 22-year-old male, and adenocarcinoma of the stomach and gastro-esophageal junction in a 25-year-old male.

It causes 50–70% of all cancer deaths and has the highest rate of occurrence among Asian countries. Most of the time, oral cancer affects the front of the tongue, the cheek, the floor of the mouth, the gums, or any other part of the mouth, including the palate, the lip, and the floor of the mouth.

Cancer stem cell hypotheses have gathered significant attention to their molecular progression. CD44, a stem cell marker, is reported to be more concentrated in the malignant and premalignant cells. We aimed to study the prognostic and therapeutic utility of CD 44 in colorectal adenoma with low/high-grade dysplasia and carcinoma and its correlation with clinicopathological parameters. Histological examination was performed according to the criteria outlined in the World Health Organization Classification of tumors 2019 and AJCC 8 th edition. RAmbispective analysis of colorectal neoplasms yielded 50 cases, of which 30 were malignant. Positive staining and high expression of CD44 were more frequent in carcinoma than in adenoma. Further staining and expression were higher in adenoma with high-grade dysplasia than in adenoma with low-grade dysplasia (p value=0.021). A significant statistical correlation was noted in CRC cases with younger age (0.0006), increased mitosis (0.038), and higher AJCC stage (0.014). Our study suggests that CD 44 expression perhaps is higher in adenomas with high-grade dysplasia and CRC with higher pathological stage, and thus could predict a worse prognosis.

Among such persistent organic pollutants are organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, as well as by-products of chemical production and combustion processes, such as dioxins and furans. One of the most toxic pesticides is the organochlorine pesticide γ-isomer of hexachlorocyclohexane (C6H6Cl6). Pure hexachlorocyclohexane is a hydrophobic white powder with a crystalline structure that has strong acid-resistant parameters. To date, it is known for sure that hexachlorocyclohexane is a polytropic toxic chemical that primarily affects the central and autonomic nervous system of mammals.

Thirteen (52%) patients were male, and the average age was 55 (range, 30-80). 23 (92%) of the patients were de-novo metastatic. Brain metastases were present in 32% and liver metastases in 20% of the patients.

Grade 1-2 side effects were detected in 36% of the patients, and grade 3-4 side effects were observed in 12%. After progression, 13 (52%) patients received 2nd series ALK inhibitors (alectinib, ceritinib, and lorlatinib) or chemotherapy. The median overall survival (OS) was found as 44.2 (95% CI, 28.5-59.9) months. The four-year OS rate was 37.4%. In the multivariate analysis, the ALK positivity ratio (p=0.02) was determined as a statistically significant factor affecting OS.

All these data are confusing; perhaps this phenomenon is due to the different chemical structures of each Dibenzo-derivative. Analyzing this data, this research aimed to evaluate the possible interaction of some Dibenzo derivatives (compounds 1 to 15) on some biomolecules involved in prostate cancer, such as androgen receptor and 5 α -reductase enzyme using flutamide, dutasteride, and finasteride drugs as theoretical tools in a Docking model. The results showed that some Dibenzo derivatives (9, 11, and 15) could interact with the androgen receptor surface. Besides, the Dibenzo derivatives 2, 5, and 13 may interact with the 5 α -reductase enzyme surface.

A 65-year-old male was treated for adenocarcinoma rectum with radiotherapy, surgery and chemotherapy and was disease-free for 9 months post-treatment completion. Subsequently, he presented with nasal bleeding and on evaluation was found to have a nasal mass. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry confirmed the mass to be a metastasis from the earlier rectal adenocarcinoma. He received palliative haemostatic radiotherapy for bleeding from the nasal mass and was then treated with 6 cycles of 5-fluorouracil and irinotecan-based palliative chemotherapy.
