IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 15486: Intermittent Use of Anti-Hormonal Agents for the Endocrine Therapy of Sex-Hormone-Dependent Breast and Prostate Cancer: A Protocol for a Systematic Review
üs Therapies with the continuous administration of anti-hormonal agents in sex-hormone-dependent malignancies such as prostate and breast carcinomas often lead to the development of resistant tumor cells. A systematic evaluation of the use and effects of the intermittent application of endocrine therapy could provide information on the state of knowledge in this research area. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science will be systematically searched using pretested search strategies. Randomized and non-randomized controlled trials, pragmatic trials, case–control, and comparative cohort studies...

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 994: Eficacy of Cryotherapy in the Prevention of Oral Mucosistis in Adult Patients with Chemotherapy
s-Sotos Oral mucositis (OM) is a common side effect of cancer therapies. It causes ulcerative, painful lesions in the oral cavity that can provoke malnutrition, increased risk of infection, longer hospital stays, and seriously affect the quality of life. Cooling the mucosa with oral cryotherapy (OC) during and/or after chemotherapy is the most accessible and tolerable intervention available. The aim of this study is to define the efficacy of OC for preventing OM induced by chemotherapy/radiotherapy in adult patients with cancer. Secondary endpoints include associated problems as pain. A systematic search was performed ...

IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 8891: Antiviral Agents for the Prevention and Treatment of Herpes Simplex Virus Type-1 Infection in Clinical Oncology: A Network Meta-Analysis
ohit Menon Cancer therapy may be complicated and compromised by viral infections, including oral herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. This network meta-analysis aimed to identify the best antiviral agent to prevent or treat oral HSV infection in patients being treated for cancer. A search was conducted for trials published since inception until the 10th of May 2020 in MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. A network meta-analysis was performed on the data from randomized controlled trials that assessed antiviral agents for preventive or therapeutic activity vs. placebo, no treatment or...
