Article Abstract
miRNA play role in post transcriptional regulation of genes and serves a range of biological functions such as initiation, development, metastasis etc. which are also hallmarks of cancer. Hence, we evaluated miRNA 181a, miRNA 30c and miRNA 570 in bladder cancer risk association among North Indians. miRNA 570 C/G (rs4143815), miRNA 30c A/G (rs928508) and miRNA 181a C/T (rs12537) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped by allelic discrimination TaqMan assay in 100 bladder cancer (BC) patients and 100 healthy controls. No significant difference was found in the genotype frequencies of the candidate SNPs among cases and controls. However, combined effect of miRNA 570-miRNA 30c (CG + AA) = 0.005, OR = 0.223, 95% CI and miRNA 570-miRNA 181a (CG + CC) = 0.003, OR = 0.169, 95% CI conferred association with no risk of BC. miRNA 181a C/T (rs12537), miRNA 30c A/G (rs928508) and miRNA 570 C/G (rs4143815) should be further validated in large sample size to be used as a risk predictor for bladder cancer among North Indians.

Rhabdomyosarcoma in Pediatric Patients Under 2 Years: Clinical Features and Outcome.

Department of Pediatric, The University of Jordan.
Background: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) typically responds well to a combination of treatments with favorable prognosis in children 1 to 9 years old. However, infants may fare worse due to receiving less aggressive local therapy for concerns about long-term effects of surgery/radiation. This study investigates the clinical characteristics, treatment approach, and survival outcomes of RMS in children under 2.

Introduction: Brachytherapy has been used for the multimodal treatment of pediatric bladder-prostate rhabdomyosarcoma in the last two decades. The aim of this systematic review is to gather the current evidence about this innovative technique with a special focus on long-term outcomes.
Methods: According to PRISMA criteria, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for papers published between 2000 and 2022.

Background: High-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy is essential in the treatment of locally advanced cervical cancer. While Iridium-192 (Ir-192) is commonly used, its short half-life imposes logistical and financial constraints, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Cobalt-60 (Co-60), with a longer half-life and lower operational costs, is a viable alternative.
