Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.8K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance01:20

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance

544
Frustration occurs when people are obstructed or prevented from achieving a desired goal or fulfilling a perceived need. For example, when someone's input is ignored in a discussion, it can lead to feelings of frustration. Conflict, however, arises from opposing interests, goals, or actions. Conflicts can take various forms based on the nature of these opposing desires or goals.
One common type of conflict is the Approach–Approach Conflict. In this case, a person faces two desirable...

Actuarial Approach01:20

Actuarial Approach

320
The actuarial approach, a statistical method originally developed for life insurance risk assessment, is widely used to calculate survival rates in clinical and population studies. This method accounts for participants lost to follow-up or those who die from causes unrelated to the study, ensuring a more accurate representation of survival probabilities.
Consider the example of a high-risk surgical procedure with significant early-stage mortality. A two-year clinical study is conducted,...

Information Processing Approach01:30

Information Processing Approach

596
The information-processing theory of cognitive development centers on fundamental mental processes, including attention, memory, and problem-solving skills. Researchers in this field examine how cognitive abilities, such as working memory, evolve and influence children's overall development. Studies indicate that children with stronger working memory tend to excel in reading comprehension, math, and problem-solving compared to peers with less efficient memory skills. Low working memory is...

The Nativist Approach01:21

The Nativist Approach

472
The nativist approach to infant cognitive development proposes that infants are born with inherent knowledge structures that allow them to interpret the world almost immediately. This perspective contrasts with earlier developmental theories, such as those proposed by Jean Piaget, which emphasized a more gradual acquisition of cognitive abilities through interaction with the environment. One key concept in this approach is object permanence — the understanding that objects continue to...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

1.0K
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Colorectal cancer is a global health concern, ranking as the third most common cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide.
  • The management of colorectal cancer has been significantly impacted by the adoption of multidisciplinary team approaches across various medical specialties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of a multidisciplinary program for rectal cancer treatment initiated in 2012.
  • To compare outcomes of rectal cancer patients treated under the multidisciplinary approach with those treated prior to its implementation.

Main Methods:

  • The study involved comparing patient data from the multidisciplinary experience group at S. Anna Hospital (University of Ferrara) with historical data from before the program's inception.
  • All research protocols adhered to established European and Italian guidelines for cancer treatment.

Main Results:

  • A deeper understanding of the neoplastic disease and individual patient profiles facilitates more precise cancer staging.
  • Therapeutic strategies are optimized and tailored to individual patient needs, leading to more effective treatment outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • The multidisciplinary approach enhances the accuracy of colorectal cancer staging and allows for personalized, weighted therapy plans.
  • This integrated strategy represents a significant advancement in the management of rectal cancer, improving patient-specific care.
