Prevalence of human papillomavirus university young women
(CIENCIAS, 2011)
Cervical cancer is the second most prevalent female cancer worldwide. The majority of cases appear between the age of 30 and 50. Human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a central role in cervical cancer with 99.7% of HPV DNA ...
Secondary Circulating Prostate Cells Predict Biochemical Failure in Prostate Cancer Patients after Radical Prostatectomy and without Evidence of Disease
(CIENCIAS, 2013)
Introduction. Although 90% of prostate cancer is considered to be localized, 20%-30% of patients will experience biochemical failure (BF), defined as serum PSA >0.2 ng/mL, after radical prostatectomy (RP). The presence of ...
Extended use of P504S positive primary circulating prostate cell detection to determine the need for initial prostate biopsy in a prostate cancer screening program in Chile
(CIENCIAS, 2014)
BACKGROUND: To determine the frequency of primary circulating prostate cells (CPC) detection according to age and serum PSA levels in a cohort of men undergoing screening for prostate cancer and to determine the diagnostic ...
Limited improvement of incorporating primary circulating prostate cells with the CAPRA score to predict biochemical failure-free outcome of radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer
(CIENCIAS, 2016)
OBJECTIVE: To establish a prediction model for early biochemical failure based on the Cancer of the Prostate Risk Assessment (CAPRA) score, the presence or absence of primary circulating prostate cells (CPC) and the number ...
P504S expressing circulating prostate cells as a marker for prostate cancer
(CIENCIAS, 2010)
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer deaths. The serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) is the only biomarker routinely used in screening. The aim of this study ...
Presence of prostate cells in bone marrow biopsies as a sign of micrometastasis in cancer patients
(CIENCIAS, 2009)
The presence of prostate cancer cells in bone marrow of patients with clinically localized disease is associated with increased chance of disease recurrence. The presence of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in bone marrow ...
The selective cytotoxicity elicited by phytochemical extract from Senecio graveolens ( Asteraceae) on breast cancer cells is enhanced by hypoxia
(CIENCIAS, 2014)
Breast cancer is the second cause of cancer related deaths in woman and the incidence of the disease has increased worldwide, in part due to improvements in early detection. Several drugs with anticancer effects have been ...
Redefining micrometastasis in prostate cancer - a comparison of circulating prostate cells, bone marrow disseminated tumor cells and micrometastasis: Implications in determining local or systemic treatment for biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy
(CIENCIAS, 2012)
The presence of cells positive for cytokeratins or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in bone marrow aspirates (BMAs) has been used to indicate the presence of micrometastasis. The aim of this prospective study of prostate ...
