Article Abstract

Introduction: Neo/adjuvant therapy for early-stage breast cancer has become increasingly common in the last few decades; as a consequence, the number of breast cancer survivors experiencing often debilitating long-term side effects has increased, and thus the need for a comprehensive approach to the variety of symptoms involved.

Areas Covered And Methods: We performed a literature search on the main public scientific databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and CrossRef) from 2000 to April 2022 to identify prevention and management strategies for the most common long-term side effects, including fatigue, insomnia, peripheral neuropathy, cognitive impairment, estrogen deprivation, cardiotoxicity, and second cancers.

Expert Opinion: Long-term toxicities may affect a majority of breast cancer survivors, significantly interfering with their quality of life. Although there are guidelines for the management of isolated side effects, such as peripheral neuropathy, we aim to provide a more inclusive clinical-oriented approach, focusing on both prevention and therapeutic strategies.

Diagnosis and management of thyroid nodule.

Curr Opin Endocrinol Diabetes Obes

October 2025

Department of Surgery, American Mission Hospital, Manama, Bahrain.

Purpose Of Review: To review the current medical evidence in the diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules.

Recent Findings: The widespread use of imaging modalities in recent years has led to frequent discovery of incidental thyroid nodules. These nodules are mostly benign (over 90%), hence precise insight in evaluating nodules of concern and following up other nodules is important to avoid unnecessary surgeries and its complications.

Background: Total mastectomy for breast cancer is an impactful procedure, and breast reconstruction plays a crucial role for women diagnosed with the disease.

Objectives: The objective of our study is to compare satisfaction, morbidity, and timelines of two breast reconstruction techniques after breast cancer: breast prosthesis and exclusive lipofilling.

Methods: This is a comparative, retrospective, unicentric study on patients who underwent total mastectomy between May 2014 and May 2020.

FTOregulated mA modification of primiR139 represses papillary thyroid carcinoma metastasis.

Zhong Nan Da Xue Xue Bao Yi Xue Ban

May 2025

Department of Information Network Center, Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha 410013, China.

Objectives: Increasing detection of low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is associated with overdiagnosis and overtreatment. N6-methyladenosine (mA)-mediated microRNA (miRNA) dysregulation plays a critical role in tumor metastasis and progression. However, the functional role of mA-miRNAs in PTC remains unclear.

Communication is a salient aspect of coping with cancer. Research suggests that young adult cancer survivors may experience unique challenges, including social isolation, fertility and family planning concerns, dating and marriage, and financial challenges. Little is known, however, about the types of communicative work young breast cancer survivors face.
