Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is an epithelial malignancy that is specifically endemic in Southern China (age-standardized incidence rate: ASR = 30-50/105 per year) and Southeast Asia (ASR = 9-12/105 per year) but it is uncommon in the rest of the world (McDermott et al., 2001). NPC is one of the top ten cancers in Thailand (ASR = 3-10 /105 per year) and causes dramatical loss of human resourc...

Niemann-Pick Disease, type C (NPC) is a fatal, neurodegenerative, lysosomal storage disorder. It is a rare disease with broad phenotypic spectrum and variable age of onset. These issues make it difficult to develop a universally accepted clinical outcome measure to assess urgently needed therapies. To this end, clinical investigators have defined emerging, disease severity scales. The average t...

Using real-time quantitative PCR, cell-free EBV DNA was detectable in the plasma of 96% (55 of 57) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients (median concentration, 21058 copies/ml) and 7% (3 of 43) of controls (median concentration, 0 copies/ml). Advanced-stage NPC patients had higher plasma EBV DNA levels than those with early-stage disease. At 1 month after completion of radiotherapy, plasma...

RATIONALE Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has a high propensity of metastasis. The most commonly described sites of distant metastasis are the bones, lungs, and liver, whereas axillary metastasis is seldom reported. PATIENT CONCERNS We hereby present the case of a 66-year-old man with NPC, cT2N2M0, at diagnosis. He had completed chemoradiotherapy and been disease-free for 7 years. DIAGNOSES ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a fatal disease caused by degeneration of motor neurons (MNs). We transplanted multipotent neural precursor cell (NPC)-neurospheres from mouse olfactory bulb (OB) into the spinal cord of transgenic mice that develop MN degeneration because of human mutant superoxide dismutase-1 (mSOD1). Adult NPCs were isolated from the OB core of transgenic mice expressing gree...

background : nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) is known as a highly distinct kind of head and neck cancer. this distinction is due to its clinical presentation, epidemiology, outcome, and treatment. there have not been any reports of epidemiological analysis of npc in iran. the aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence rates and trends of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the iranian population dur...

Nasopharyngeal soft tissue is most commonly adenoid hypertrophy in children. Although rare, nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) does occur in children. Nasal obstruction, serous otitis media, hearing problems, and tinnitus are common signs and symptoms of all nasal diseases. For this reason, the majority of NPC presents with advanced disease at the time of the diagnosis. This paper reported 7-year-o...

The epithelial-derived nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a rare tumor in most of the world; however, it is common in southern China, northern Africa, and Alaska. NPC is often left undiagnosed and untreated until a late stage of disease. Furthermore, while radiation therapy is effective against this tumor, local recurrence due to radioresistance is an important clinical problem. In this issue, L...

BACKGROUND Low serum albumin is predictive of poor survival in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We evaluated the ability of the pretreatment albumin/globulin ratio (AGR) to predict long-term mortality in patients with NPC. METHODS This retrospective study examined an unselected cohort of 694 patients with NPC who had documented pretreatment total serum protein and serum albumin levels (ALB). A...
