Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.4K
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...

Nursing Ethical Principles II01:27

Nursing Ethical Principles II

1.5K
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine02:50

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

5.2K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

481
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Cancer Therapies

8.3K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Halo Effect01:27

Halo Effect

62
The halo effect is a cognitive bias in which an individual's overall impression influences judgments about their specific traits. This psychological phenomenon leads people to associate positive characteristics with those they perceive as generally good and negative characteristics with those they view as bad. This effect is particularly influential in social perception, professional evaluations, and decision-making processes.The Psychological Basis of the Halo EffectThe halo effect is rooted...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Psychiatry
  • Healthcare Disparities

Background:

  • Patients with cancer and co-occurring substance use disorders (SUDs) face unique challenges in healthcare.
  • Implicit bias among healthcare professionals can create barriers to equitable and effective care for this vulnerable population.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To underscore the critical importance of recognizing and mitigating implicit bias in the care of cancer patients with SUDs.
  • To highlight the potential negative impacts of unaddressed implicit bias on patient outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • This abstract discusses the conceptual implications of implicit bias in clinical practice.
  • It emphasizes the need for awareness and proactive strategies to counteract bias.

Main Results:

  • Implicit bias can adversely influence patient assessment, diagnostic accuracy, and treatment planning.
  • Unmanaged bias may lead to suboptimal follow-up care and discharge planning for patients with cancer and SUDs.

Conclusions:

  • Mindfulness of implicit bias is fundamental for delivering high-quality care to cancer patients with SUDs.
  • Mitigating healthcare professionals' implicit bias is essential for achieving positive patient outcomes and reducing health disparities.
