Psychiatry related information on Rectal Neoplasms

 

High impact information on Rectal Neoplasms

  • Improving adjuvant therapy for rectal cancer by combining protracted-infusion fluorouracil with radiation therapy after curative surgery [7].
  • Six hundred sixty patients with TNM stage II or III rectal cancer received intermittent bolus injections or protracted venous infusions of fluorouracil during postoperative radiation to the pelvis [7].
  • The combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy with fluorouracil plus semustine after surgery has been established as an effective approach to decreasing the risk of tumor relapse and improving survival in patients with rectal cancer who are at high risk for relapse or death [7].
  • Direct evidence that the VEGF-specific antibody bevacizumab has antivascular effects in human rectal cancer [8].
  • In conclusion, this investigation has demonstrated a benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy (MOF) for the management of rectal cancer [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Rectal Neoplasms

 

Biological context of Rectal Neoplasms

  • Polymorphisms of the repeated sequences in the enhancer region of the thymidylate synthase gene promoter may predict downstaging after preoperative chemoradiation in rectal cancer [15].
  • TP53 genotype but not p53 immunohistochemical result predicts response to preoperative short-term radiotherapy in rectal cancer [16].
  • Furthermore, BI-1 expression analysis using a cancer profiling array showed up-regulation of BI-1 expression in cancer samples of breast, uterus and ovary, whereas down-regulated BI-1 expression was identified in stomach, colon, kidney, lung and rectal cancer [17].
  • Five families had mutations in hMLH1, 4 of which were splice site mutations, 2 had frameshift mutations in hMSH2 and 1 patient with metachronous endometrial and rectal cancer but with a weak family history of cancer had a nonsense mutation in hMSH6 [18].
  • We analyzed the relationships of survivin expression to RT, clinicopathologic variables, apoptosis, and p53 expression in rectal cancer patients who participated in a trial of preoperative RT [19].
 

Anatomical context of Rectal Neoplasms

  • Treatment of the human rectal cancer cell line HRT-18 with sodium butyrate caused a reversible elevation of alkaline phosphatase activity which was inhibited by cycloheximide and actinomycin D [20].
  • FMT tumor uptake at 60 min postinjection in mice with LS180 rectal cancer, RPM11788 B-cell lymphoma and MCF7 mammary cell carcinoma was assessed, and the results were compared with 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) tumor uptake [21].
  • PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with locally advanced operable rectal cancer (uT3/4 or uN+, Mason CS III/IV) were randomly assigned to pre- or postoperative radiochemotherapy: A total dose of 50.4 Gy (single dose 1.8 Gy) was applied to the tumor and the pelvic lymph nodes [22].
  • A randomised, placebo-controlled trial was conducted to study whether the subcutaneous administration of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) increases the donated red cell blood volume in patients with rectal cancer [23].
  • Twenty gastric and one rectal tumor stained diffusely with vimentin and actin, but not with desmin, and had scattered strongly S-100-positive cells that might either be trapped Schwann cells or tumor cells [24].
