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...

Cancer Therapies

8.0K
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...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

458
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...

Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.8K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

48
Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...

Interprofessional care for coronary artery disease includes pharmacological therapy and revascularization procedures.Pharmacological therapy for Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) aims to manage symptoms, prevent complications, and improve patient outcomes through various classes of medications:Antiplatelet Agents:Aspirin and Clopidogrel: These medications inhibit platelet aggregation, preventing blood clots, which is crucial for avoiding heart attacks and strokes. Doctors often prescribe these...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Oncology
  • Multidisciplinary Care

Background:

  • Effective cancer treatment requires understanding the roles and patient management approaches of the entire oncology team.
  • Currently, a standardized curriculum for fundamental knowledge and skills in collaborative oncology specialties is lacking for trainees.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and evaluate the effectiveness of multidisciplinary oncology education in postgraduate medical training.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature search was conducted across multiple databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, PsycINFO, ERIC) from July 2021 to October 2024.
  • Included studies reported on the effectiveness of multidisciplinary oncology training for residents and fellows.

Main Results:

  • Of 6991 screened studies, 24 were included. Fifteen studies identified significant gaps in multidisciplinary oncology training across various specialties.
  • Trainees reported limited knowledge outside their core fields and a need for more interdisciplinary education.
  • Nine studies assessed interventions (tumor boards, didactic sessions, rotations, case-based learning), showing significant improvements in trainee knowledge and skills.

Conclusions:

  • Postgraduate medical trainees demonstrate limited formal multidisciplinary oncology training.
  • Educational interventions are effective in enhancing oncology knowledge and skills.
  • There is a critical need for developing standardized multidisciplinary oncology curricula for postgraduate training programs.
