Background: Oral and enteral mucositis due to high-dose cytostatic treatment administered during autologous and allogeneic stem-cell transplantation increases mortality. Salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) is a basic pillar of
The efficacy and safety of generic and brand name levofolinate injectable drugs were evaluated in 42 chemotherapy-naïve patients with colorectal cancer who received the combination chemotherapy of levofolinate, 5-fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin with or without bevacizumab. The tumor response rate was
Spontaneous cancer regression is a rare event, scarcely reported among gastrointestinal malignancies. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma regression has been documented in five previous cases, none of which included liver metastases, and the mechanism by which this occurs is not known. A 56-year-old woman
The patient who will undergo a bone marrow transplant (BMT) has a high protein catabolism in the time period after the infusion of the marrow, and therefore there is a need for an adequate nutritional support. The objective of our study is to analyze the behavior of nutritional assessment
CONCLUSIONS
Recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rGM-CSF) is a polypeptide hormone produced through recombinant DNA technologies in glycosylated (yeast or mammalian expression systems) or nonglycosylated (Escherichia coli expression system) form. It is a multilineage
BACKGROUND
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a common supportive care therapy in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Inadequate oral dietary intake may necessitate prolonged courses of PN, which have been associated with metabolic, infectious, and hepatobiliary
Sucralfate, an aluminum salt of sucrose octasulfate, has been shown to be effective in reducing the discomfort of radiation therapy-induced oral mucositis. This study was done to determine whether sucralfate could be used as a nutritional source for dental caries-producing organisms. Three
Since many anticancer drugs show severe adverse effects such as mucositis, peripheral neurotoxicity, and extravasation, it was crucial to explore new compounds with much reduced adverse effects. Comprehensive investigation with human malignant and nonmalignant cells demonstrated that derivatives of
Leptotrichia species are non-motile facultative anaerobic/anaerobic bacteria that are found mostly in the oral cavity and some other parts of the human body, in animals, and even in ocean sediments. Valid species include L. buccalis, L. goodfellowii, L. hofstadii, L. honkongensis, L. shahii, L.
