Locally advanced rectal cancer: MR imaging for restaging after neoadjuvant radiation therapy with concomitant chemotherapy. Part I. Are we able to predict tumor confined to the rectal wall?
Downsizing to ypT0-2 tumors can be accurately predicted by combining morphologic tumor staging predictions with results from volumetric analyses. MR images obtained after radiation therapy with concomitant chemotherapy might be helpful in more individualized treatment planning.
Alcohol consumption suppressed the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts and then reduced trabecular bone formation and bone volume in association with the elevated p21 expression in bone marrow cells, especially in aldehyde dehydrogenase 2-disrupted mice.
