Does epidermal growth factor receptor status predict local response to radical radiotherapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer?
EGFR status predicts the local response to radiotherapy but does not provide prognostic utility in relation to overall or bladder cancer-specific survival. As EGFR status seems to be linked to the initial response to radiotherapy, its inhibition may be a means of enhancing the radio-responsiveness of these poor prognosis tumours. Colquhoun, A. J.
High animal protein intake in infancy, but not vegetable protein intake, was associated with accelerated growth and higher BMI in childhood. Dairy protein intake in infancy may be positively associated with linear growth and also with IGF-1 in six-year-old girls.
