Marital status, education, and income in relation to the risk of esophageal and gastric cancer by histological type and site
CONCLUSIONSDivorce, widowhood, living alone, low educational attainment, and low income increase the risk of each subtype of esophageal and gastric cancer. These associations require attention when high‐risk individuals are being identified. Cancer 2015. © 2015 American Cancer Society.

Predisposing factors and histopathological variants of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: Experience from a North Indian teaching hospital
Conclusion: Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is uncommon in Indian patients and a high index of suspicion is necessary when a rapidly enlarging nodule, verrucous fungating plaque or an ulcer with everted margins develops in long standing scars and other predisposing dermatologic conditions. Histopathological examination is mandatory to confirm the diagnosis and identify the subtype and this has prognostic implications.

What Are Systemic Disease Causes of Oral Ulcers?
Discussion Oral ulcers are common problems seen by dentists but pediatricians also see them. Usually families have are concerned because they are painful and acute. Ulcers are sometime noticed by the physician and not the family as in the case of herpangina or hand-foot and mouth disease. Chronic or recurrent ulcerations present less commonly and therefore it may be more difficult to determine their etiology. Many of the systemic disease causes of oral ulcers are overall infrequent and/or not common in the pediatric age range. Ulcers can be classified in several ways but acute ulcers are usually painful and last less tha...

Developing Human Papillomavirus Education Material for HPV-Positive Oropharyngeal Cancer Patients with an Interprofessional Health Care Team and Patient Representatives
Purpose: The incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related head and neck cancer now exceeds the incidence of HPV-related cervical cancer in Canada. A study conducted at our institution identified that patients were not provided with sufficient information regarding HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV-OPSCC). It was also recognized that patients and their partner felt guilt and stigma about the HPV diagnosis, which had a negative impact on their intimacy. The aim of this project was to create an educational tool to address the concerns of patients and their families with HPV-OPSCC through collaboration...

False-Negative Interpretation of Adenocarcinoma In Situ in the College of American Pathologists Gynecologic PAP Education Program.
CONCLUSIONS: - The low correct interpretation rate and higher false-negative rate for AIS demonstrate the difficulty in interpreting AIS on Pap cytology, which may cause clinical consequences. The higher false-negative rate with pathologists than with cytotechnologists suggests cytotechnologists' higher screening sensitivity for AIS or cautious interpretation to avoid false-positive results by pathologists.

Reviewing the genetic alterations in high ‐risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: A search for prognostic markers and therapeutic targets
Abstract Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is second only in incidence to basal cell carcinoma (BCC), effecting up to 500 000 people in the United States annually. Metastasis to regional lymph nodes occurs in approximately 5% of cases and imparts significant morbidity. Standard treatment in this group involves a combination of surgery and adjuvant radiation. Currently, there are no clinically useful biomarkers of metastatic potential in primary cutaneous SCC and histological predictors can be unreliable. The high level of mutational burden in normal UV‐exposed skin has hampered the search for novel drivers of inva...

Is Lipidomic the Answer to the Search of a Biomarker for Organ Preservation Protocol in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma?
In conclusion, we demonstrated that a group of lipids is differentially abundant in saliva from HNSCC patients submitted to an organ preservation protocol, being able to differentiate responders from non-responders. These results suggest the potential use of lipid biomarkers to identify patients who may benefit from this treatment. Also, we showed that saliva testing might be routinely used in clinical practice, for being a non-invasive alternative to blood testing, besides inexpensive and easy to obtain.

Evaluation of metastatic neck nodes search for primary and subsequent management
CONCLUSIONS: Metastatic neck disease is a major problem in patients with head-and-neck cancer. The therapeutic goal includes not only known disease but also the elimination of possible subclinical disease. The judicious use of moderate doses of irradiation and modified surgical procedures should be used in specific clinical situations to significantly decrease neck recurrences while eliminating morbidity.PMID:35381772 | DOI:10.4103/jcrt.JCRT_1083_20

Active search screening for oral potentially malignant disorders and oral cancer and in the city of piracicaba
Oral cancer is a world public health problem. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) represents approximately 90% of all oral malignancies and is frequently preceded by oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). Screening programs aimed at early detection of oral lesions have been conducted. Therefore, the objective of this research was to carry out an active search screening program in the city of Piracicaba.

Quality of Life in Patients with Non-melanoma Skin Cancer: Implications for Healthcare Education Services and Supports
AbstractNon-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most prevalent type of cancer among Caucasian populations worldwide. The purpose of this work was to measure quality of life (QOL) of the patients with diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) who were referred to our cancer clinic. During 1  year, 95 patients were selected and asked to complete Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) questionnaires. Ninety-five patients with NMSC (74 men and 21 women) with mean age of 64.6 ± 12.5 participated in this cross-sectional study. From 95 patients, 75 had BCC, 15 had SCC, and 5 patients ha d both ...

Radiomics-based tumor phenotype determination based on medical imaging and tumor microenvironment in a preclinical setting
CONCLUSION: We demonstrated a preclinical radiomics implementation and notable correlations between MRI- and TME hypoxia-related features. Developing additional TME features may help to further unravel the underlying biology.PMID:35192909 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2022.02.020
