Thereby justifying the need for development of treatment-intensifying strategies to improve the inferior outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":519964,"journal":{"name":"BJC reports","volume":"3 1","pages":"54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12307813/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144746746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
