Conclusions: The radiomics-clinic combined model could be a potential non-invasive biomarker for MSI status in GC, which help clinical decision-making, nevertheless, provided limited prognostic ability.

Prognostic value of the preoperative albumin-bilirubin score among patients with stages I-III gastric cancer undergoing radical resection: A retrospective study - PubMed

Prognostic value of the preoperative albumin-bilirubin score among patients with stages I-III gastric cancer undergoing radical resection: A retrospective study - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36762709/

The albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score was originally used to accurately assess liver dysfunction and predict the prognoses of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Following its more recent application to patients with gastrointestinal...



Conclusions: The ALBI score is a valid clinical indicator and good predictor of survival after surgery for progressive GC. Moreover, this score is simple to derive and does not burden patients with additional costs.

Effects of vonoprazan and proton pump inhibitors on the efficacy of bevacizumab: a multicentre retrospective study - Clinical and Experimental Medicine

Effects of vonoprazan and proton pump inhibitors on the efficacy of bevacizumab: a multicentre retrospective study - Clinical and Experimental Medicine

Source : https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10238-023-01008-1

Gastric acid secretion inhibitors such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and vonoprazan may change the duration of treatment with bevacizumab, a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor, for cancer. However,...


Conclusions: Oestrogen is a key regulator of this effect and may be responsible for the varying association between PPI or vonoprazan administration and the difference in bevacizumab treatment duration between colon cancer and other cancer types.

Drug-induced thrombotic microangiopathy: An updated review of causative drugs, pathophysiology, and management

Drug-induced thrombotic microangiopathy: An updated review of causative drugs, pathophysiology, and management

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphar.2022.1088031/full

Drug-induced thrombotic microangiopathy (DITMA) represents 10%-13% of all thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) cases and about 20%-30% of secondary TMAs, just behind pregnancy-related and infection-related forms. Although the list of drugs potentially...


Conclusions: Based on recent literature data, we proposed a treatment approach for DITMA, highlighting the importance of drug withdrawal and the role of therapeutic plasma-exchange (TPE), rituximab, and anti-complementary therapy.
