Laryngeal Involvement of Rhabdomyosarcoma in an Adult
(BioMed Central, 2003)Background Although initial presentation of sarcomas in the head and neck region is relatively common, involvements of the larynx by rhabdomyosarcoma either primary or metastatic have been reported rarely. Case report A ... -
Tamoxifen-Induced Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Reduction: A Clue for an Acquired Thrombophilic State?
(Oxford Univ Press, 2004)Background: Current understanding of hemostatic systems enables us to better explore the enigmatic pathobiology of tamoxifen (TAM)-induced thrombotic diathesis. We have therefore aimed to assess the hemostatic changes in ... -
Transfection of Myeloid Leukaemia Cell Lines Is Distinctively Regulated By Fibronectin Substratum
(Springer, 2009)Gene transfer into haematopoietic cells is a challenging approach. The extracellular matrix component fibronectin has been known to modulate the cell cycle dynamics, viability and differentiation of leukaemia cells. Thus, ... -
Cancer Trends and Incidence and Mortality Patterns in Turkey
(Oxford Univ Press, 2011)Cancer incidence and mortality rates have been increasing in Turkey as most of the developing countries. Besides socioeconomic factors, one of the most prominent attributes of developing countries is the dissimilarity of ... -
Lack of Any Relationship Between Abo and Rh Blood Groups and Clinicopathological Features in Patients with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, 2012)Background: An association between the ABO blood group and the risk of certain malignancies, including pancreatic and gastric cancer, has been reported previously. However, it is unclear whether this association is valid ... -
Efficacy of Adjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor In Hormone Receptor-Positive Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients According To The Body Mass Index
(Cancer Research UK, 2012)Background: Increased adiposity may trigger signalling pathways that induce aromatase expression. As aromatase inhibitors exert their effects by blocking the aromatase enzyme, higher body mass index (BMI) can reduce the ... -
Impact Of Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy For Rectal Cancer On The Long-Term Quality Of Life And Late Side Effects: A Multicentric Clinical Evaluation By The Turkish Oncology Group
(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, 2012)Aim: Although preoperative chemoradiatherapy (CRT) has proven its benefits in terms of decreased toxicity, there is still a considerable amount of cases that do not receive postoperative CRT. Oncologists at different ... -
Smooth Muscle Cells Isolated from Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms Exhibit Increased Genomic Damage, but Similar Tendency for Apoptosis
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2012)Aortic aneurysms (AA) are characterized by structural deterioration leading to progressive dilation. During the development of AA, two key structural changes are pronounced, one being degradation of extracellular matrix ... -
Mean Esophageal Radiation Dose is Predictive of the Grade of Acute Esophagitis in Lung Cancer Patients Treated with Concurrent Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy
(Oxford Univ Press, 2012)The intention of this research was to define the predictive factors for acute esophagitis (AE) in lung cancer patients treated with concurrent chemotherapy and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy. The data for 72 lung ... -
Lack of Relationships Between Fgf19 Staining Pattern, Lymph Node Metastasis and Locally Invasive Characteristics of the Tumor in Colorectal Cancers
(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, 2013)Introduction: Colorectal cancers are in the top of the cancer-related causes of death in the world and lymph node metastasis is accepted as the primary prognostic factor. In this study, correlations of FGF19 staining pattern ... -
Smoking Habits of Relatives of Patients with Cancer: Cancer Diagnosis in the Family is an Important Teachable Moment for Smoking Cessation
(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, 2013)Background: In this study we aimed to determine the rate and habitual patterns of smoking, intentions of cessation, dependence levels and sociodemographic characteristics of relatives of patients with a diagnosis of cancer. ... -
Deep Vein Thrombosis Following Non-Myeloablative Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation: Presentation of Three Cases and Literature Review
(Galenos Yayınevi, 2013)The incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after non-myeloablative (NMA) allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is unknown. In addition, very few studies on the predisposing factors for DVT post SCT have been ... -
