Abstract Background Facial and cranial asymmetry is common in bilateral vertebrates, particularly human beings. Through years of injecting fillers and performing face-lift operation on patients, we began to observe that more fillers were required on the right side to reach symmetry and also more loose skin and soft tissue was observed on the right side in the majority of patients (Fig. 5). Here, we conducted an analytical study to comprehensively...

AbstractWe would like to put forth the salient features of Tongue cancers, a distinguished anatomic subsite of the oral cavity and have named this muscular organ as a mobile mucovascular pump ,this could perhaps elucidate its aggressive biology and skip metastasis. Oral cancers offer a complementary information to the clinician due to its access visibility1 and the hallmark sign of non ‐healing ulcer, but are yet diagnosed at an advanced stage.

ConclusionsThe dental implant failure rate in EB patients seems to be very low, although the few cases reported in the literature were followed up for a short mean period, i.e., just a little bit longer than 3 years. More cases followed up for a long period are needed in order to be able to make a more reliable prognosis for the long-term oral rehabilitation of EB patients with dental implants.

Pain after tonsil surgery is troublesome because it causes discomfort. In addition, handling patients with postoperative pain is challenging to otolaryngologists. Many laboratory studies have assessed the use of analgesics and surgical techniques to discover methods for effective control of postoperative pain associated with tonsil surgery. In this review article, we summarize and provide a comprehensive overview of current methods for the control of pain after tonsil surgery based on findings of...

Background: Recent trials have provided robust evidence demonstrating that endocrine therapy with/without targeted therapy, such as cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors or mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitors, effectively halts disease progression in hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer. We investigated the survival impact of local treatment of metastases as a first-line treatment after metastasis in HR-positive...

Background: Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use is common among cancer patients. Data indicated that CAM use correlates with younger age, higher education levels, higher income, and less physician consultations. However, non-CAM use and predictors for non-CAM use are less clear among breast and gynecological cancer patients. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of non-CAM use and to investigate factors that might influence non-CAM use. Methods: The survey...

Long-Lasting Response after Pembrolizumab in a Patient with Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
Introduction: Breast cancer is the first cause of cancer death in women. The triple-negative subtype is associated with aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. Chemotherapy is the main therapeutic option available for these patients, but it is usually associated with short overall survival. Case Presentation: We report the case of a patient diagnosed with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer with an impressive long-lasting tumor response and long-term survival after pembrolizumab monotherapy....

Background: The relationship between imaging features and nonsentinel lymph node (NSLN) metastasis is not clear. Objectives: To determine whether imaging features could predict NSLN metastasis in sentinel lymph node (SLN)-positive breast cancer patients and to provide new clues for avoiding unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection. Method: 171 patients with clinically negative axillary lymph nodes and a pathologically positive SLN were recruited between January 2007 and January 2014. According...
