TREATING VENOUS THROMBOEMBOLISM IN CANCER PATIENTS THE CASE FOR LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HEPARIN THERAPY

Concern for cardiovascular disease (particularly atrial fibrillation-AF) among women with breast cancer is becoming a major issue. We aimed at determining the incidence of cardiovascular disease events (AF, arterial and cardiac events, venous-thromboembolism-VTE) in patients diagnosed with breast ca[r]

Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) frequently overexpress somatostatin receptors (SSTRs), which is the molecular basis for 68Ga-DOTATOC positron-emission tomography (PET) and radiopeptide therapy (PRRT). However, SSTR expression fluctuates and can be subject to treatment-related changes.

The aim of this study was to gain further investigation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumorigenesis and identify biomarkers for clinical management of patients through comprehensive bioinformatics analysis.

Research and cancer care are closely intertwined; however, it is not clear whether physicians and nurses believe that clinical trials offer the best treatment for patients and, if so, whether this belief is justified.

Upland rice grows on 19 million ha, about 15% of the world''s rice plantation [2]. The production of upland rice is crucial to agricultural economy of many countries [15].

INTRODUCTION OF THESIS

1. Background:
Lung cancer is one of the common cancers. The disease has the highest incidence and mortality among cancers, most commonly seen in the elderly especially over 60 years old. The majority of lung cancer is related to secondhand and passive smoking and has over[r]
