Durable graft-versus-leukaemia effects without donor lymphocyte infusions - results of a phase II study of sequential T-replete allogeneic transplantation for high-risk acute myeloid leukaemia and myelodysplasia.
(2018-02)
Allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation remains the only curative treatment for relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplasia but has previously been limited to patients who ...
Does type 2 diabetes mellitus promote intervertebral disc degeneration?
(2016-09)
PURPOSE: LDD is an important cause of low back pain. Many people believe there is an adverse influence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) on lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration (LDD). We examined a population sample for ...
Setting the Threshold for Surgical Prevention in Women at Increased Risk of Ovarian Cancer.
(2018-01)
The number of ovarian cancer cases is predicted to rise by 14% in Europe and 55% worldwide over the next 2 decades. The current absence of a screening program, rising drug/treatment costs, and only marginal improvements ...
Impact of a decision aid about stratified ovarian cancer risk-management on women's knowledge and intentions: a randomised online experimental survey study.
(2017-11-16)
BACKGROUND: Risk stratification using genetic and other types of personal information could improve current best available approaches to ovarian cancer risk reduction, improving identification of women at increased risk ...
Analysis of clonal expansions through the normal and premalignant human breast epithelium reveals the presence of luminal stem cells.
(2018-01)
It is widely accepted that the cell of origin of breast cancer is the adult mammary epithelial stem cell; however, demonstrating the presence and location of tissue stem cells in the human breast has proved difficult. ...
Over expression of HIF1α is associated with inactivation of both LimD1 and VHL in renal cell carcinoma: Clinical importance.
(2017-12)
It is evident that the association of LimD1 and VHL could regulate stabilization of HIF1α protein. In this study, the expression of LimD1, VHL and HIF1α was analyzed in primary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) samples to understand ...
A risk prediction algorithm for ovarian cancer incorporating BRCA1, BRCA2, common alleles and other familial effects.
(2015-07)
BACKGROUND: Although BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations account for only ∼27% of the familial aggregation of ovarian cancer (OvC), no OvC risk prediction model currently exists that considers the effects of BRCA1, BRCA2 and other ...
