Enhancement of the Tumor Suppression Effect of High-dose Radiation by Low-dose Pre-radiation Through Inhibition of DNA Damage Repair and Increased Pyroptosis
Dose Response. 2024 Apr 11;22(2):15593258241245804. doi: 10.1177/15593258241245804. eCollection 2024 Apr-Jun.ABSTRACTRadiation therapy has been a critical and effective treatment for cancer. However, not all cells are destroyed by radiation due to the presence of tumor cell radioresistance. In the current study, we investigated the effect of low-dose radiation (LDR) on the tumor suppressive effect of high-dose radiation (HDR) and its mechanism from the perspective of tumor cell death mode and DNA damage repair, aiming to provide a foundation for improving the efficacy of clinical tumor radiotherapy. We found that LDR pre-i...

Recent progress in radioactive seed implantation brachytherapy of non-small cell lung cancer: a narrative review
CONCLUSIONS: This review demonstrates that RSI-BT can be therapeutic in the treatment of both early and advanced NSCLC with manageable complications. There have also been reports on the combination of RSI-BT with other therapies, but more research is needed on the combination of RSI-BT with them.PMID:38617768 | PMC:PMC11009575 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-1600 (Source: Journal of Thoracic Disease)

Primary intradural Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma of the cauda equina: a Case Report and Literature Review
We report a case of a 66-year-old male who presented with a 2-month history of low back pain and bilateral S1 sciatica, with acute sphincter dysfunction. Imaging studies revealed an intradural extramedullary lesion in the cauda equina spanning from level L4 to S1. The patient underwent partial removal of the intradural lesion. Histopathological examination showed the presence of small round cells, which were consistent with Ewing Sarcoma. The patient was then treated with targeted radiation therapy and chemotherapy. The rarity of IEES in this specific location underscores the significance of evaluating and managing patient...

Impact of outside referral and dental extractions on package time with post ‐operative radiation therapy for head and neck cancer
ConclusionsWe identified that outside referrals, but not dental extractions, prolong treatment package times. We also saw no effect of package time on RFS or OS. These results suggest that patients requesting outside facility referrals for RT may benefit from a streamlined program that expedites the referral process.
