Is the alcohol-induced suppression of ovarian insulin-like growth factor-1 gene transcription independent of growth hormone and its receptor?
These results suggest that the ALC-induced suppression of ovarian IGF-1 gene transcription is independent of alterations in serum GH.
Based on cost-minimization analyses, IORT represents a potential cost savings in the management of early-stage breast cancer. However, absolute reimbursement is misleading, because when additional medical and nonmedical costs associated with IORT are factored in, WBI and APBI represent cost-effective modalities based on cost-per-QALY analyses. They remain the standard of care.
