Cancer Informatics, Volume 18, Issue , January-December 2019. The repeatability observed across cancers arising in the same tissue can help understand the evolutionary process of tumour initiation. We recently developed a framework to quantify the local malignant adaptation of genetic clones in tissue-specific environments. In this Commentary, we argue that such a 1-dimensional model can be improved by separating its 2 components to obtain a dual scale: local adaptation, dictating proliferation rates...

The standard of care for benign pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas is surgical resection; however, there is no definitive curative or standard therapy for the treatment of malignant pheochromocytomas or paragangliomas. Current therapeutic options include surgical resection, chemotherapy (CVD therapy), MIBG-radiotherapy, somatostatin analogues, and combination targeted therapies such as temozolomide and thalidomide. Although some patients demonstrate short-lived responses to these various therapies,...

Background. The ratio of early mitral inflow velocity to the global diastolic strain rate (E/E’sr) and global longitudinal systolic strain (GLS) of the left ventricle (LV) are emerging indices of diastolic and systolic functions, respectively, for the LV. Their prognostic significance in the prediction of mortality and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes remains underexplored in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods. This prospective study included 190 maintenance HD patients. The E/E’sr ratio and GLS were...
