The 2022 update on cancer statistics provides a staggering figure: 20 million will receive a new diagnosis of cancer, and nearly 10 million will die. The data are derived from estimates provided by the Global Cancer Observatory, which relies on the best available sources of both incidence and mortal...

Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) represent a diverse group of regions with varied cancer presentation. Drug development and accessibility across these regions have primarily been dependent on the trials initiated and conducted across high-income countries. Representation of LMIC regions in t...

Household air pollution due to solid fuel (biomass) combustion is widely prevalent in rural households in the developing world. Providing adequate ventilation can be a potential method to reduce exposures to residents. Previous cookstove studies in rural areas around the world have estimated the ven...

Squamous cell carcinoma in children and adolescents is extremely rare. Less than 80 case reports have been reported in the literature since it was first reported in 1868. In this article, we intend to report a case where a 16-year-old girl who presented with complaints of change in voice was found t...

Umbilical metastases [Sister Mary Joseph's nodules (SMJN)] are relatively rare and are associated usually with advanced intra-abdominal tumors from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) or from the gynecological malignancies and they carry poor prognosis. Here we report a case of carcinoma caecum whose i...

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) comprises approximately 0.02% of all malignant tumours, which are a very small fraction of a group of cancers that affect in 0.7 to 2 in 1 000 000 people per year. Recurrence is very common even after complete resection and prognosis is poor. We report a case of a spor...

BACKGROUND: Treatment of growth faltering in early infancy may improve short and long term child health outcomes. The overall aim of this trial is to determine, in infants who meet study criteria for growth faltering, the effect of intensive breastfeeding counselling and support (IBFCS) plus nutriti...

BACKGROUND: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare malignancy of invasive epithelium with keratinocyte differentiation, and it is the most common form of eyelid malignant neoplasm, comprising 5%-10% of malignancies. While SCC rarely affects the orbit, it may be involved through local invasion from ...

PURPOSE: Accurate understanding of the genomic and transcriptomic data provided by next-generation sequencing (NGS) is essential for the effective utilization of precision oncology. Molecular tumor boards (MTBs) aim to translate the complex data in NGS reports into effective clinical interventions. ...

Primary Orbital squamous cell carcinoma is an exceedingly rare condition. This is mainly due to absence of native squamous epithelium of the orbit itself. The number of reported cases of orbital squamous cell carcinoma are very few. The presenting signs and symptoms can sometimes be challenging and ...
