Estimates of cancer burden in Abruzzo and Molise.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Abruzzo and Molise are two regions located in the south of Italy, currently without population-based cancer registries. The aim of this paper is to provide estimates of cancer incidence, mortality and prevalence for the Abruzzo and Molise regions combined. METHODS The MIAMOD method, a back-calculation approach to estimate and project the incidence of chronic diseases from ...
متن کاملNew Molecular Targets in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of cancer death in men. Despite initial responses, almost all patients progress to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Over the past decade, increased understanding of the mechanisms that drive resistance to castration has led to the development of next-generation androgen receptor targeting agents such as abiraterone acetate and enzalu...
متن کاملMolecular imaging approaches in the diagnosis of breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Introduction:The accuracy of positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT), positron emission mammography (PEM), and breast specific-gamma imaging (BSGI) in diagnosing breast cancer has never been systematically assessed, the present systematic review was aimed to address this issue. Methods:PubMed, Scopus and EMBASE were searched for st...
متن کاملGene assembling: a new approach in molecular diagnosis of hereditary breast cancer
Abstract Background: Many disease susceptibility genes are large and consist of many exons in which point mutations are scattered throughout. Scanning each exon individually represents a tedious task which can be time consuming and expensive. There has been increasing demand for rapid and accurate methods for full scanning of unknown point mutations in large multi-exon genes. Gene Assembling i...
متن کاملGenetic diagnosis of cancer: diagnosis of mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 in breast cancer
During the last two decays the tremendous success in molecular biology and genetics which has surprised the entire world. So that today the sequencing of whole genome has been possible for each human individual to estimate its being affected with cardiovascular and cancer diseases. However, these achievements have some important limitations and deep ethical issues which might be ignored. Geneti...
