Comprehensive methylome sequencing reveals prognostic epigenetic biomarkers for prostate cancer mortality - PubMed

Comprehensive methylome sequencing reveals prognostic epigenetic biomarkers for prostate cancer mortality - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36178085/

Our study provides detailed methylome maps of non-lethal and lethal prostate cancer and identifies novel genic regions that distinguish these patient groups. Inclusion of our DNA methylation biomarkers with existing...


Conclusions: Our study provides detailed methylome maps of non-lethal and lethal prostate cancer and identifies novel genic regions that distinguish these patient groups. Inclusion of our DNA methylation biomarkers with existing clinicopathological measures improves prognostic models of prostate cancer mortality, and holds promise for clinical...

Daily online contouring and re-planning versus translation-only correction in neurovascular-sparing magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer

Daily online contouring and re-planning versus translation-only correction in neurovascular-sparing magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer

Source : https://phiro.science/article/S2405-6316(22)00078-1/fulltext

Neurovascular bundle (NVB) and internal pudendal artery (IPA) sparing during magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) for prostate cancer aims for preservation of erectile function. Our present workflow involves daily online contouring...


Relevance: Neurovascular bundle (NVB) and internal pudendal artery (IPA) sparing during magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) for prostate cancer aims for preservation of erectile function. Our present workflow involves daily online contouring and re-planning on a 1.5 T MR-linac, as alternative to conventional (rigid) translation-only...

Protein and amino acid intakes in relation to prostate cancer risk and mortality-A prospective study in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition - PubMed

Protein and amino acid intakes in relation to prostate cancer risk and mortality-A prospective study in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36148781/

This study does not provide strong evidence for an association of intakes of total protein, protein from different dietary sources or amino acids with prostate cancer risk or mortality. However,...


Conclusion: This study does not provide strong evidence for an association of intakes of total protein, protein from different dietary sources or amino acids with prostate cancer risk or mortality. However, our results may suggest some weak positive associations, which need to be confirmed in large-scale, pooled analyses of prospective data.
