DELIRIUM PREVALENCE AND RELATED RISK FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH HEAD AND NECK CANCER SURGERY
Background & Aims: Delirium is a common problem in hospitalized patients and may threaten the patient's life. Patients undergoing surgery may experience such a common complication. The high mortality in patients with delirium and lack of a rapid recovery from the disease, reveal the importance of addressing this problem. So the purpose of this study is to show the risk factors in the major...
متن کاملEffective dose and thyroid cancer risk in panoramic imaging
Background and Aim: On panoramic radiographs, sensitive organs, including the thyroid, are exposed to radiation. Thyroid cancer is one of the most common cancers in Iran. That is why, in this study the effective dose and risk of thyroid cancer were estimated on panoramic radiography. Materials and Methods: Seventy GR200 thermoluminescence (TLD) dosimeters were used to estimate the absorbed dos...
متن کاملPrognostic biomarkers in head and neck cancer.
Most of the cancers that arise in the mucosa of the upper aerodigestive tract, including the oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx, are squamous cell carcinomas. To date, although there are no primary mutations that have been discovered to cause these cancers, aberrant expression of a variety of molecules characterizes head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Most of the studies have compared ...
متن کاملBrachytherapy boost and cancer-specific mortality in favorable high-risk versus other high-risk prostate cancer.
PURPOSE Recent retrospective data suggest that brachytherapy (BT) boost may confer a cancer-specific survival benefit in radiation-managed high-risk prostate cancer. We sought to determine whether this survival benefit would extend to the recently defined favorable high-risk subgroup of prostate cancer patients (T1c, Gleason 4 + 4 = 8, PSA < 10 ng/ml or T1c, Gleason 6, PSA > 20 ng/ml). MATERI...
متن کاملHigh-Risk HPV, Biomarkers, and Outcome in Matched Cohorts of Head and Neck Cancer Patients Positive and Negative for HIV.
In this study, high-risk HPV (hrHPV) incidence, prognostic biomarkers, and outcome were assessed in HIV-positive (case) and HIV-negative (control) patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). HIV-positive cases were matched to controls by tumor site, sex, and age at cancer diagnosis. A tissue microarray (TMA) was constructed and DNA isolated from tumor tissue. MultiPlex-PCR MassArr...
