Microvesicles as Potential Ovarian Cancer Biomarkers
Although the incidence of ovarian cancer is low (i.e., less than 5% in European countries), it is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy and typically has a poor prognosis. To ensure optimal survival, it is important to diagnose this condition when the pathology is confined to the ovary. However, this is difficult to achieve because the first specific symptoms appear only during advanced diseas...

The overall purpose of the 'Statistical Points and Pitfalls' series is to help readers and researchers alike increase awareness of how to use statistics and why/how we fall into inappropriate choices or interpretations. We hope to help readers understand common misconceptions and give clear guidance on how to avoid common pitfalls by offering simple tips to improve your reporting of quantitativ...
متن کاملCell-derived microvesicles and cancer.
Blood and other body f luids contain cell-derived microvesicles. The presence of microvesicles in cancer patients was already noticed in the late 1970s. Since then, the prothrombotic state in cancer patients has invariably been associated with the presence of such microvesicles. More recently, a growing body of evidence supports an important contribution of microvesicles to cancer cell survival...
متن کاملSize Matters – Revealing Small Scale Structures in Large Datasets
The size of datasets generated in the medical imaging community is increasing faster than additional processing resources are made available. Even if we can surmount the hurdles in large data handling and processing, the amount of information encoded in these datasets is overwhelming. Therefore effective visualization techniques must allow a user to identify and focus on scientifically interest...
متن کاملExtracellular vesicles in cancer: exosomes, microvesicles and the emerging role of large oncosomes.
Since their first description, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been the topic of avid study in a variety of physiologic contexts and are now thought to play an important role in cancer. The state of knowledge on biogenesis, molecular content and horizontal communication of diverse types of cancer EVs has expanded considerably in recent years. As a consequence, a plethora of information about ...
