Update on cancer predisposition syndromes and surveillance guidelines for childhood brain tumors
Clin Cancer Res. 2024 Apr 4. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-4033. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTumors of the central nervous system (CNS) comprise the second most common group of neoplasms in childhood. The incidence of germline predisposition among children with brain tumors continues to grow as our knowledge on disease aetiology increases. Some children with brain tumors may present with non-malignant phenotypic features of specific syndromes (e.g. nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, neurofibromatosis type 1 and type 2, DICER1 syndrome, and constitutional mismatch repair deficiency), while others may present with a str...

A Novel TSHR Gene Mutation in a Family with Non-autoimmune Hyperthyroidism
CONCLUSIONS: This novel TSHR variant is associated with T3 toxicosis during childhood. Therefore, early identification and treatment may improve patient outcomes.PMID:38566871 | PMC:PMC10983094 | DOI:10.5455/medarh.2024.78.154-158 (Source: Cancer Control)

Cancer patterns in Arua district, Uganda: a hospital-based retrospective study
CONCLUSION: There is a high incidence of liver cancer in Arua district. The high levels of cervical, breast and oesophagus cancer were consistent with what is reported by the two PBCRs in Uganda. However, BL could be due to the presence of a BL treatment centre at Kuluva hospital in Arua. Cancer interventions in Arua should therefore be targeted towards liver, cervix, breast, and oesophagus cancer and furthering research on the reason for the high incidence of liver cancer.PMID:38566768 | PMC:PMC10984836 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2024.1688 (Source: Ecancermedicalscience)
