Mathematical modeling in cancer nanomedicine: a review.

Cancer continues to be among the leading healthcare problems worldwide, and efforts continue not just to find better drugs, but also better drug delivery methods. The need for delivering cytotoxic agents selectively to cancerous cells, for improved safety and efficacy, has triggered the application of nanotechnology in medicine. This effort has provided drug delivery systems that can potentially revolutionize cancer treatment. Nanocarriers, due to their capacity for targeted drug delivery, can shift the balance of cytotoxicity from healthy to cancerous cells. The field of cancer nanomedicine h

Нейрофизиологические подходы к борьбе с болью при множественном склерозе: мини-обзор.

Хроническая боль является распространенным, но зачастую недостаточно признанным симптомом у лиц с множественным склерозом (МС), который затрагивает 29-86% населения. Это положение может существенно повлиять на функциональность отдельных лиц, включая их способность заниматься профессиональной деятельностью. Патофизиология, лежащая в основе этого состояния, остается сложной и не вполне понятной, а неадекватные меры реагирования на фармакологические вмешательства или неблагоприятные последствия могут препятствовать его регулированию. В свете этих замечаний настоятельно необходимо определить новые

The Power of Phytochemicals Combination in Cancer Chemoprevention.

Conventional therapies for cancer treatment have posed many challenges, including toxicity, multidrug resistance and economic expenses. In contrast, complementary alternative medicine (CAM), employing phytochemicals have recently received increased attention owing to their capability to modulate a myriad of molecular mechanisms with a less toxic effect.

A Recent Review on Cancer Nanomedicine.

Cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases globally and is the second major cause of death in the United States. Despite the continuous efforts to understand tumor mechanisms and various approaches taken for treatment over decades, no significant improvements have been observed in cancer therapy. Lack of tumor specificity, dose-related toxicity, low bioavailability, and lack of stability of chemotherapeutics are major hindrances to cancer treatment. Nanomedicine has drawn the attention of many researchers due to its potential for tumor-specific delivery while minimizing unwanted side effects

Image-Guided Percutaneous Ablation for Primary and Metastatic Tumors.

Image-guided percutaneous ablation methods have been further developed during the recent two decades and have transformed the minimally invasive and precision features of treatment options targeting primary and metastatic tumors. They work by percutaneously introducing applicators to precisely destroy a tumor and offer much lower risks than conventional methods. There are usually shorter recovery periods, less bleeding, and more preservation of organ parenchyma, expanding the treatment options of patients with cancer who may not be eligible for resection. Image-guided ablation techniques are c

Protocol for the TMaC Study: A Patient-Blinded, Randomised, Sham-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study Evaluating Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Chronic Chemotherapy-Induced Pain in Bowel Cancer Patients.

IntroductionChemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating consequence for people undergoing treatment for cancer, especially bowel cancer. Painful CIPN contributes to psychological distress, functional decline and reduced quality of life.
