Culture of primary human meibomian gland cells from surgically excised eyelid tissue
Exp Eye Res. 2023 Aug 30:109636. doi: 10.1016/j.exer.2023.109636. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMeibomian gland dysfunction is one of the most common ocular diseases, with therapeutic treatment being primarily palliative due to our incomplete understanding of meibomian gland (MG) pathophysiology. To progress in vitro studies of human MG, this study describes a comprehensive protocol, with detailed troubleshooting, for the successful isolation, cultivation and cryopreservation of primary MG cells using biopsy-size segments of human eyelid tissue that would otherwise be discarded during surgery. MG acini were isolated and us...

The Diagnosis and Treatment of Ampullary Carcinoma
CONCLUSION: The current state of the evidence on the treatment of ampullary carcinoma is poor. Therapeutic decisions should be discussed in an interdisciplinary tumor board and should, in our opinion, take the histological subtype into account.PMID:37656482 | DOI:10.3238/arztebl.m2023.0195

Clinical Impact of Radical Resection of Synchronous and Metachronous Peritoneal Metastases from Colorectal Cancer
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with radical resection of PM had good survival compared with those with chemotherapy alone, especially for metachronous PM. Surgical intervention should be considered for isolated metachronous PM when radical resection is feasible.PMID:37658266 | DOI:10.1245/s10434-023-14191-y

Who are the vulnerable lung cancer patients at risk for not receiving first-line curative or palliative treatment?
CONCLUSIONS: Several factors are associated with not receiving guideline-recommended NSCLC treatment with age, performance status, comorbidity and stage being most predictive of no treatment receipt. Efforts should be made to develop support for vulnerable lung cancer patients to improve adherence to optimal first-line therapy.PMID:37656828 | DOI:10.1080/0284186X.2023.2252581

Pelvic insufficiency fractures and pelvic bone metastases after neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy for rectal cancer
Conclusion: PIFs are a relatively common late complication of neoadjuvant (C)RT for rectal cancer but are often missed or misdiagnosed as pelvic bone metastases. The differentiation of PIFs from pelvic bone metastases is important because of a different treatment and disease outcome.PMID:37656773 | DOI:10.1080/0284186X.2023.2252168

Comparison of home-based palliative care delivered by community health workers versus usual care: research protocol for a pilot randomized controlled trial
DISCUSSION: Pal-Care is a RCT funded by the NCI to explore utilization of CHWs to deliver a home-based palliative care intervention built upon the WHO Palliative Care toolkit (PCT), as compared to a usual care control group. The long-term goal of this research is to develop an effective and sustainable model for delivering home-based palliative care for cancer patients in underserved areas.TRIAL REGISTRATION (TRN): ClinicalTrials.gov ID# NCT04972630.PMID:37658397 | DOI:10.1186/s12904-023-01235-z

Comparing effectiveness and safety of paclitaxel plus raltitrexed vs. paclitaxel alone in second-line palliative chemotherapy for metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma: A randomized phase II clinical trial
CONCLUSIONS: Second-line palliative chemotherapy with RP was shown to prolong the PFS and OS, especially among patients with ascites or peritoneal involvement, which warrants confirmation using larger sample studies.PMID:37653589 | DOI:10.20892/j.issn.2095-3941.2023.0112

Adapting the Serious Illness Conversation Guide for Dementia Care
Conclusion: This paper presents the SICG-D, an adapted version of the SICG for use in dementia care. This guide leverages the strengths of the SICG to promote values-based ACP conversations and has been adapted to better facilitate patient-caregiver-clinician triadic communication.PMID:37655362 | DOI:10.1177/10499091231200214
