TL;DR: It is shown that low-dose IR promotes tumor growth and metastasis and that these effects were prevented by the administration of a VEGF receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor immediately before IR exposure, demonstrating a new mechanism to the understanding of the potential pro-metastatic effect of IR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer wasting and quality of life react to early individualized nutritional counselling
TL;DR: It was shown that nutritional deterioration in patients with gastrointestinal and head and neck cancer was multifactorial and mainly determined by the tumour burden and location, and the potential role of integrated oral nutritional support on outcomes was investigated.
