Does hyperthermia and irradiation of head and neck squamous cancer cells cause migratory profile changes of tumour infiltrating lymphocytes?
The combination of irradiation and hyperthermia is able to modify transmigration of tumour infiltrating lymphocytes beneficially and individually. In this in vitro system hyperthermia alone negatively impacts the immune response by selectively recruiting Treg, whereas hyperthermia with the addition of irradiation negates this effect.
Dementia significantly increases the risk of HF in patients on dialysis, but this risk in demented patients is equally high whether receiving dialysis therapy or not. These results highlight dementia as a major risk factor for HF in dialysis and indicate that reduction of fracture risk should include dementia as a risk factor.
