FOS immunostaining was diffuse and strong in the cytoplasm and nucleus of neoplastic cells in all cases, whereas FOSB was only focally positive, with few epithelioid osteoblasts showing nuclear staining. Conclusions Although epithelioid osteoblastomas of the jaws are locally aggressive, widespread metastasis does not occur, and, as with conventional osteoblastomas, there is wide expression of the FOS protein.Several cancer interventions induce DNA damage and promote senescence in cancer and nonmalignant cells. Senescent cells secrete a collection of proinflammatory factors collectively termed the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP factors are able to potentiate various aspects of tumorigenesis, including proliferation, metastasis, and immunosuppression. Moreover, the accumulation and persistence of therapy-induced senescent cells can promote tissue dysfunction and the early onset of various age-related symptoms in treated cancer patients. Here, we review in detail the mechanisms by which cellular senescence contributes to cancer development and the side effects of cancer therapies. We also review how pharmacological interventions to eliminate senescent cells or inhibit SASP production can mitigate these negative effects and propose therapeutic strategies based on the age of the patient.Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of lumbo-peritoneal shunt (LPS) in patients of idiopathic intracranial hypertension presenting with visual symptoms. Methods Between Apr. 2014 and Mar. 2018, 70 patients of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) underwent treatment at our institution. Patients were evaluated for neurological and ophthalmological status and were subjected to LPS depending on their symptoms. Results Mean opening pressure was 29.97±5.33cm of water and mean Body-Mass Index (BMI) was 26.51±3 and the two were significantly correlated (p-value 0.006). All patients with visual symptoms (23) underwent LPS and others (47) were managed medically. All patients with LPS and 25 of medically managed patients improved, while 22 medically-managed patients required LPS due to deterioration in visual symptomatology. The proportion of patients showing complete resolution of features of IIH was significantly different between the three groups. Of the 7 patients with shunt extrusion/migration, only 2 required revision. Conclusion LPS is an equally effective and more technically familiar modality for treatment of IIH for neurosurgeons and should be offered to asymptomatic patients with objective visual signs. Shunt extrusion/migration may not always warrant revision due to "mini-shunt" that drains Cerebro-Spinal Fluid (CSF) through shunt tract even after extrusion.Background Adjuvant treatment for stage II colon cancer remains debated. VX770 Finding a tool to select patients at risk for disease recurrence may help the clinical decision. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has been reported recently as a potential predictive marker for disease recurrence. We thus aim to test its ability to better select stage II colon cancer patients for adjuvant therapy. Methods This national, phase III trial (NCT00002019-000935-15) conducted in more than 100 centers in France, plans to screen around 2640 patients in order to randomize (21; minimization method) 198 ctDNA positive patients. Patients aged 18 to 75 years with ECOG performance status ≤1 with R0 surgical resection of a pT3-T4aN0 colon or high rectum adenocarcinoma will be randomized within 63 days after curative-intent surgery, to adjuvant mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m², leucovorin 400 mg/m², and 5-FU bolus 400 mg/m2 then 5FU Continuous infusion 2.4 g/m²) every two weeks for 12 cycles or observation. Patients will be followed for maximum 7 years. A gain of 17.5% in 3-yr disease free survival (DFS) is expected (42.5% in the experimental arm vs. 25% in the control arm; HR0.62; α, 5% [two-sided log-rank test]; 1-β, 80%). Secondary endpoints include 2-yr DFS, overall survival, and toxicity. Recruitement began End of January 2020.Here, we present the design, synthesis, and SAR of dual orexin 1 and 2 receptor antagonists, which were optimized by balancing the antagonistic activity for orexin receptors and lipophilicity. Based on the prototype compound 1, ring construction and the insertion of an additional heteroatom into the resulting ring led to the discovery of orexin 1 and 2 receptor antagonists, which were 3-benzoyl-1,3-oxazinane derivatives. Within these derivatives, (-)-3h enabled a high dual orexin receptor antagonistic activity and a low lipophilicity. Compound (-)-3h exhibited potent sleep-promoting effects at a po dose of 1 mg/kg in a rat polysomnogram study, and optimal PK properties with a rapid Tmax and short half-lives in rats and dogs were observed, indicating a predicted human half-life of 0.9-2.0 h. Thus, (-)-3h (ORN0829; investigation code name, TS-142) was selected as a viable candidate and is currently in clinical development for the treatment of insomnia.We describe a novel 'pubic osteotomy minimal' (POM) done on body of pubis just lateral to the insertions of rectus abdominis and adductor longus muscles to bring rectus abdominis in midline without tension for abdominal wall closure without tension. In one patient, during pubic ramotomy, we missed middle of ramus and did osteotomy on the body on pubis found afterwards. Following good outcome, we did POM in another 17 patients. Abdominal wall closure was possible without tension and found satisfactory in all 18 patients in follow up. None had bladder wall dehiscence.Introduction We aimed to determine the feasibility of segmentectomy for radiologically solid-dominant clinical stage IA lung cancer measuring 2.1 to 3 cm (whole tumor size). Patients and methods Data from 197 patients with radiologically solid-dominant clinical stage IA lung cancer measuring 2.1 to 3 cm who underwent lobectomy (n = 154) or segmentectomy (n = 43) were retrospectively analyzed. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) at 5 years were assessed. Finally, propensity score matching was performed by age, gender, radiologic whole tumor size, consolidation to maximum tumor ratio, tumor location, maximum standardized uptake value, and preoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and vital capacity (VC). Results Only 2 (4.7%) patients in the segmentectomy group were converted to lobectomy because of lymph node metastasis or inadequate surgical margins. Postoperative reductions in VC and FEV1 at 12 months were significantly less in the segmentectomy group (VC, 7.4%; FEV1, 6.9%) than in the lobectomy group (VC, 17.
