The Relationship Between Obesity and Cancer: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and the Effect of Obesity Treatment on Cancer.

There is growing evidence relating to the risk of cancer in people with obesity. Obesity is already established as one of the strongest predisposing factors to cancer, and 'obesity-related' cancers have been defined in previous studies. In this review article, we examine the epidemiological relationship and describe the potential pathophysiological mechanisms that underpin the association between obesity and cancer. These include hormonal and growth factors that are in abundance in persons living with obesity and thereby increase cancer risk. Additionally, the increased disposition towards chr

Effect of healthcare professional-delivered health literacy interventions on patient reported outcomes in cancer patients - a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Cancer impairs quality of life (QoL) and mental wellbeing and other patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Health literacy (HL) in cancer patients can be an intermediary factor and can improve PROs. For this reason, the aim of this systematic review is to identify HL interventions delivered by healthcare professionals (HCPs) that have an impact on PROs. METHODS: We carried out a comprehensive literature search on 1 December 2023 across nine databases and included studies 1) with HL interventions delivered through HCPs aiming to have an effect on HL, HL-related outcomes, anxiety, depress

BackgroundArteriovenous fistulas are the gold standard of vascular accesses in haemodialysis; however, they have a considerable primary failure rate. This study evaluated the comparative reliability of routine preoperative Doppler ultrasound with an isolated physical examination of autologous arteriovenous fistulas within the Single Health System of Brazil and analysed the potential clinical benefit, improvement in primary failure rates and its economic impact.MethodsA non-blind randomised clinical study group of patients undergoing a vessel mapping with preoperative Doppler ultrasound (ultras

Targeting the CD47-TSP1 Axis in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: A Novel Immunotherapeutic Approach.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening vascular disorder characterized by progressive dilation and weakening of the abdominal aortic wall. Despite advances in surgical repair, rupture remains associated with mortality rates exceeding 65%, and no effective pharmacological therapy exists to prevent disease progression. Increasing evidence highlights chronic inflammation, extracellular matrix degradation, and immune dysregulation as central drivers of AAA pathogenesis. Among these mechanisms, the thrombospondin-1 (TSP1)-CD47 signaling axis has emerged as a critical upstream regulat

A systematic literature review of the assessment of treatment burden experienced by patients and their caregivers.

Epigenetic Modulation and Bone Metastasis: Evolving Therapeutic Strategies.

Bone metastasis remains a significant cause of morbidity and diminished quality of life in patients with advanced breast, prostate, and lung cancers. Emerging research highlights the pivotal role of reversible epigenetic alterations, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodeling complex dysregulation, and non-coding RNA networks, in orchestrating each phase of skeletal colonization. Site-specific promoter hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes such as HIN-1 and RASSF1A, alongside global DNA hypomethylation that activates metastasis-associated genes, contributes to

G Protein-Coupled Receptor Signaling: Implications and Therapeutic Development Advances in Cancers.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest and most diverse class of membrane proteins, mediating cellular responses to a wide range of extracellular stimuli. GPCRs initiate complex intracellular signaling networks that regulate vital physiological functions and are associated with numerous diseases, including various types of cancer. Their conserved seven-transmembrane (7TM) structure enables these signaling networks by allowing interactions with multiple ligands and intracellular effectors. In several types of tumors, abnormal GPCR signaling promotes carcinogenesis by supporting imm

Neurologic adverse events of cancer immunotherapy.

Cancer immunotherapy encompasses a wide range of treatment modalities that harness the anti-tumor effects of the immune system and have revolutionized oncological treatment in recent years, with approval for its use in more and more cancers. However, it is not without side effects. Several neurological adverse events have been recognized associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, the two main classes of cancer immunotherapy. With the increase in the prevalence of oncological diseases and this type of therapy, it is improbable that neu

Inflammatory Manifestations, Therapeutic Interventions, and Cancer Risk in Psoriasis: Current Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence.

Psoriasis is a chronic, autoimmune skin disease driven by persistent inflammation and immune dysfunction that severely impairs quality of life and is associated with serious comorbidities, including psoriatic arthritis, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and depression. Emerging epidemiological evidence suggests an association between psoriasis and an increased risk of certain malignancies, such as breast cancer (BC) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), although the strength and consistency of these associations vary across study designs, and the underlying thrombo-inflammatory mechanisms remain inc
