Gene expression network analysis identified CDK1 and KIF11 as possible key molecules in the development of colorectal cancer from normal tissues.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies and the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Despite extensive research, the mechanism underlying CRC development remains unclear. This study aimed to understand the development and progression of CRC.

Safety and Effectiveness of Bone Allografts for Mastoid Obliteration After Mastoidectomy: A Pilot Study.

Background And Objectives: Various materials are used to perform post-mastoidectomy mastoid obliteration (MO) to reduce the risk of recurrent infections, stasis of secretions, or caloric dizziness. Autologous materials used as fillers for MO tend to be insufficient owing to shrinkage over time or inadequate volume of these substances. Synthetic materials are unsatisfactory for MO because of the risk of rejection and extrusion.

Thyroid Cancer Incidence Among Korean Individuals: A Comparison of South Korea and the United States.

Objective: To compare thyroid cancer incidence rates and trends between Korean, non-Korean Asian, and non-Hispanic White populations in the United States, and between the US Korean population and the South Korean population.

Method: Population-based analysis of cancer incidence data. Cases of thyroid cancer diagnosed during 1999-2014 from the Korean Central Cancer Registry (KCCR) and the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) 9 detailed Asian/Pacific Islander subgroup incidence and population dataset were included.

A Patient of Venous Hemangioma of the Inferior Turbinate.

Sinonasal hemangiomas are relatively rare among the hemangiomas that occur from the head and neck parts. According to their histopathologic findings, they are classified as capillary, cavernous, or venous type. Some cases of capillary or cavernous hemangioma that occur from the inferior turbinate have been reported.
