Multiple primary lung cancers.
From November 1957 to June 1984 at Shanghai Chest Hospital, 30 cases of multiple primary lung cancers were confirmed, based on clinical characteristics, diagnostic process, histologic type, treatment, and prognosis. Out of 3,815 cases of resected primary lung cancer, the incidence of multiple primary lung cancers was 0.8 percent. There were ten synchronous cases and 20 metachronous cases. Seven...
متن کامل[Multiple primary cancers].
Hecause multiple primary cancers have been found to occur oftener than expected among necropsy cases at the State of Wisconsin General Hospital, a tabulation of such cases has been made and their incidence computed. Comparison with previous reports has been facilitated by the work of Warren and Gates ( I ) , who published in 1932 the results of a comprehensive survey of all cases reported up to...
متن کاملA Practical Guide to Estimating the Heritability of Pathogen Traits
Pathogen traits, such as the virulence of an infection, can vary significantly between patients. A major challenge is to measure the extent to which genetic differences between infecting strains explain the observed variation of the trait. This is quantified by the trait's broad-sense heritability, H2. A recent discrepancy between estimates of the heritability of HIV-virulence has opened a deba...
متن کاملBurden of malignancy after a primary skin cancer: recurrence, multiple skin cancers and second primary cancers.
The current paper summarizes relevant recent research on the high risk of recurrence, multiple skin cancers and second primary cancers in the growing number of people with a history of skin cancer; the ultimate purpose is to better assess the burden of malignancy following skin cancer. A number of challenges exist in identifying and tracking both melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) cas...
متن کاملDetermination of Incisal Point as Anterior Guide to Transfer Maxillary Casts to Articulator: A Pilot Study
Objectives Despite the importance to use face-bow record for transferring maxillary cast to articulator some dentists use average points to avoid the time taken and ease of use. The location of incisal point could help to set the maxillary cast or denture in an appropriate position in mounting stage. This study was designed to determine the incisal point location in ante...
