Understanding the fundamental processes driving OSCC may yield novel therapeutic avenues to enhance disease management and patient survival. Our study seeks to evaluate serum urea, creatinine, and uric acid levels in oral cancer patients compared to a healthy control group. Methodology: In this prospective comparative study, we enrolled 60 OSCC patients and 60 healthy controls. We assessed serum urea, creatinine, and uric acid levels at OSCC diagnosis and collected clinical and laboratory data. Subsequently, we examined these serum concentrations, correlating them with the disease's clinic pathological features. Results: In our study, we observed that OSCC patients (mean age: 54.48±11.52 years) outnumbered controls (mean age: 53.24±10.19 years) with a male predominance (68.33%). Significant differences existed in smoking and alcohol use between the groups. TNM stage 4 (41.67%) was the most prevalent among cases, and most had advanced disease (TNM 3-4, 60.00%). Lymph node metastasis was frequent in positive neck cases (53.33%), and histological, most cases were moderately differentiated (65.00%). Most cases were alive (71.67%) concerning disease-related survival. In linear regression analysis, OSCC patients displayed significantly lower serum urea levels compared to controls, with age, smoking, and lymph node invasion significantly influencing urea levels. Multiple linear regression confirmed these variables' impact on serum urea levels. Conclusion: Patients with advanced OSCC exhibit reduced serum urea levels correlated with lymph node metastasis. Dysregulation of protein catabolism processes may potentially enhance the invasive characteristics of OSCC, fostering their aggressive behavior.","PeriodicalId":74640,"journal":{"name":"RAS oncology & therapy","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136206860","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}

Amino acids level of postoperative gastric cancer (M0) patients are compared with metastatic gastric cancer (M1) patients in search of biomarker which can predict the metastasis of gastric cancer. We have made clinical correlation of patients’ vital signs, respiratory rate, pulse rate, blood pressure, body temperature, disease stages, chief complaints, complications and survival curve within light of metastatic and nonmetastatic domain. Background: Majority of cancer patients are diagnosed after seeding of metastatic cells to adjacent organs and distant sites. At this point, treatment is palliative and supportive. The cellular propagation of cancer cells and tumor micro-environment plays vital role in genesis of gastric cancer. Genetic alteration leading to faulty nucleotides to amino acids, then to protein, and finally formation of tumor is the natural sequence of pathogenesis of gastric cancer. Prediction of metastasis by use of plasma free amino acid profile may be of great significance because it will help to tailor the patient specific cancer treatment. Plasma Amino acids are ideal for being developed as tool for prediction of metastasis as they are affordable, less expensive and convenient. Method: This study includes total 54 patients, among which 27 had metastasis of Gastric cancer and rest 27 had undergone gastric surgery at early stage with no recurrence at the time of the study. Twenty-three amino acids were studied. Student’s t test was performed to find out statistically significant values of amino acids. The p value of ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Amino acids with significant p values were investigated with multivariate logistic regression. Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS DA) was done using Microsoft SPSS 23 version software®. Variable Importance of Projection (VIP) was estimated, values ≥ 1 was considered statistically significant. Result: Performance Score (PS) (p= 0.004) and Body Mass Index (BMI) (p= 0.035) were statistically significant between M0 and M1 groups. Staging (I, II vs. III, IV) (p< 0.001) was significant. Seven amino acids, Asp, Cys, Hcy, His, Leu, Orn and Ser were significant between M0 and M1 in first month evaluation. Eight amino acids, Cys, Hcy, His, Leu, Met, Thr, Trp and Tyr were significant between M0 and M1 in sixth month evaluation.

One reason for ‘non[1]positive’ result is due to the underlying assumption of normality and homogeneity of variances, which are quite often violated when analyzing data from clinical trials, despite randomization. A question of interest is can we obtain more informative results when using mixture of normal distributions or linear models (MLMs) in such cases. Introduction: MLM can be used when traditional methods fail. MLMs “search” within the variability in data to identify components or subgroups of individuals (also known as latent classes) who have common intercepts and common slopes of change in a variable/endpoint of interest but whose intercepts and slopes are different from other subsets of patients. Thus, MLMs can be used to identify subgroups of patients exhibiting differential response to treatment within each treatment arm. The purpose of our study was to examine the usefulness of using MLM in such circumstances. Methods: Data of 155 subjects taken from a Multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial that evaluated the efficacy of Cpn10, administered twice weekly subcutaneously to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis was taken to evaluate the usefulness of MLM. The primary efficacy measure ACR20 was analyzed using a 3-step process: first, MLM was used to estimate RA duration using a 3-component model. The second step took the results of the first step to inform the logistic model and its analyses. Model was fitted with an intercept, MLM components, treatment arm, RA duration (linear and quadratic), dose response (modeled as an interaction effect), age and baseline weight. LOCF was used to impute for missing data. Data was analyzed using MLM and SAS v 9.0. Results: The model was a good fit to the data with a likelihood ratio significant at p=0.026, and a significant increase in the -2log L. We also observed low p-values for those variables that were non normal. Overall and for the 75 mg dose, Cpn 10 was efficacious relative to placebo, p<0.050. We also observed that dose response was significant at p><0.15 Conclusion: The use of MLM adds value because it can be used to understand the disease experience or the value of treatment when traditional statistical methods cannot. Key words: Mixture of linear models, normality, entropy.","PeriodicalId":74640,"journal":{"name":"RAS oncology & therapy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70513214","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}

Response assessment is challenging because pseudoprogression (PP) is difficult to distinguish from true tumor progression (TTP). Methods: We report the case of a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma and a bony metastasis to T-7. The MRI 22 months after the first SBRT to this location showed radiological tumor progression to the epidural space resulting in a re-SBRT. The three and six months MRI after re-SBRT showed again progressive epidural growth. After T-7 vertebrectomy, obtained tissue specimens were histopathologically evaluated. Results: Although the MRI sequences after second SBRT were highly suspicious of tumor progression into epidural space, only a small cluster of carcinoma cells of 1mm diameter was found within the bony structure near the disc, not belonging to the radiologically highly suspicious epidural mass. Conclusion: To our knowledge, we report the first case of a radiographic tumor progression to the epidural space following primary SBRT and re-SBRT, which histopathologically revealed a PP after spine surgery. Based on the “epidural progression criterion” from the SPINO-consensus, the first and the second progression after SBRT should have been classified as TTP. Due to the challenge in distinguishing TTP from PP, reporting of such cases are essential to share experiences and thereby improve the understanding of PP after spine SBRT.","PeriodicalId":74640,"journal":{"name":"RAS oncology & therapy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70513477","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}

It is a global curse with incidence set to double in the U.S. by 2030. Increasingly, researchers blame this debacle on our persistent use of unreliable preclinical testing with mouse models. Further, while basic science understanding has exploded, we know each daughter cell is genetically different, with likely increased resistance to therapy - and increased aggressiveness. Nonetheless, our current approach requires killing every one of these daughters to the last. The authors have devised a new game plan; the new goal is to kill the very first cells, not the last ones. This can be implemented globally - with dramatic cost reduction, and more lives saved while leaving the breast intact. Methods The authors have created The Lavender Way, which employs multiple non-radiation diagnostic modalities. This allows us to predict within ten years in a person's lifetime when breast cancer will likely manifest. Then imaging is accelerated with modified military Infrared, ultrasound, and others to locate ultra-small breast cancers (5-8mm). Tumor analysis can determine each tumor’s aggressiveness. Via a 20-minute office procedure under local anesthesia (i.e., Cryoablation, aka The Lavender Procedure), the tumor can be killed with the patients resuming normal activity immediately. It is both a dramatic change in treatment and, just as significant, a dramatic change in lifting the psychological burden of this dreaded disease. Results Group I - Ideal Patients Group II – Less than Ideal Group III – Strictly Palliative All in Group I are alive after seven years except one. That one died of a fall, cancer-free, and one is alive with a local recurrence successfully treated with repeat cryoablation. Group II had one local recurrence, and one had a second primary tumor in a different location in the breast. Group III refused any other treatment and had metastatic disease. They were treated to prevent tumors from eroding through the skin. Most have died. The Lavender Way paves the way for The Lavender Procedure Conclusion Ultra-small breast cancers with optimal bio-markers are ideal candidates for The Lavender Procedure (i.e., Cryoablation). All patients resumed normal activity immediately – without sutures. All patients in Group I and II patients have avoided surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.","PeriodicalId":74640,"journal":{"name":"RAS oncology & therapy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70513531","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}
