recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Strahlentherapie Und Onkologie"

DOI: 10.1007/s00066-024-02282-y

Abstract: This study compares the objective American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and Adult Comorbidity Evaluation-27 (ACE-27) scores with the subjective Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) for patient outcome prediction. We retrospectively analyzed head… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-020-06384-y

Abstract: Pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) formation and swallowing difficulties are common and troublesome complications following total laryngectomy (TL). Prior (chemo)radiotherapy ((C)RT) is thought to be a risk factor for these complications, but there is conflicting evidence as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-021-06861-y

Abstract: Patients with advanced laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer are often treated with chemo-radiotherapy to avoid total laryngectomy. Subclinical swallowing disorders could be present in these patients even though patients do not complain of any symptoms. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12274-019-2518-1

Abstract: The strategy of pH-responsive aggregation in tumor micro-environment (TME) provides an intriguing platform for enhancing tumor retention and exerting therapeutic effects sufficiently. In this work, we have designed an intelligent dual pH-responsive self-aggregating nano gold… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2021.05.050

Abstract: Low accumulation and penetration of nanomedicines in tumor severely reduce therapeutic efficacy. Herein, a pH-responsive gold nanoassembly is designed to overcome these problems. Polyethylene glycol linked raltitrexed (RTX, target ligand and chemotherapy drug) and two… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/bjc.2017.258

Abstract: Background:Following chemo-radiotherapy (CCRT) for human papilloma virus positive (HPV+) locally advanced head and neck cancer, patients frequently undergo unnecessary neck dissection (ND) and/or repeated biopsies for abnormal PET-CT, which causes significant morbidity. We assessed the… read more here.
