BACKGROUNDThe prognosis for patients with atypical and malignant meningioma is guarded; whether the extent of resection is associated with survival‐based outcomes in this population remains poorly defined. This study investigated the association between gross total resection (GTR) and all‐cause mortality in patients with atypical and malignant meningioma.
METHODSThe Surveillance, Epidemiology, and...
BACKGROUND:This study examined the association between functional single‐nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes from oxidative stress pathways and risk of radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients treated with thoracic radiation therapy for locally advanced lung cancer.
METHODS:A review was conducted of 136 patients treated with radiation therapy for lung cancer between 2001 and 2007, and who had...
BACKGROUND:Salvage stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is often considered in breast cancer patients previously treated for brain metastases. The goal of this study was to analyze clinical outcomes and prognostic factors for survival in the salvage setting.
METHODS:The authors retrospectively examined 79 consecutive breast cancer patients who received salvage SRS (interval of >3 months after initial...
BACKGROUND:Delays in follow‐up after breast cancer screening contribute to disparities in breast cancer outcomes. The objective of this research was to determine the impact of race/ethnicity and health insurance on diagnostic time, defined as number of days from suspicious finding to diagnostic resolution.
METHODS:This retrospective cohort study of 1538 women examined for breast abnormalities between...
