Effectiveness of a Web-Based Colorectal Cancer Screening Patient Decision Aid: A Randomized Controlled Trial in a Mixed-Literacy Population

TL;DR: The web-based decision aid increased patients' ability to form a test preference and their intent to receive screening, regardless of literacy level, and similar results were found across literacy levels.
Journal Article

Tumor uptake and elimination of 2', 2'-difluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (gemcitabine) after deoxycytidine kinase gene transfer : Correlation with in vivo tumor response

TL;DR: The hypothesis that increased expression of dCK cDNA in HT-29 xenografts results in an enhanced dFdCTP accumulation and prolonged elimination kinetics, and ultimately a potentiated in vivo tumor response to dDdCyd is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary analysis of health-related quality of life in the first year after permanent source interstitial brachytherapy (PIB) for clinically localized prostate cancer.

TL;DR: It is suggested that clinically meaningful decreases in HRQOL, as measured by the FACT-P instrument, are evident within weeks after PIB, and a validated instrument designed to measure urinary symptoms (IPSS) demonstrates that moderate to severe urinary symptoms persist for at least 3-6 months following PIB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Staging by Positron Emission Tomography Predicts Survival in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

TL;DR: PET scanning is a highly sensitive technologic advance in detecting and staging of thoracic malignancy and may more accurately predict the likelihood of long-term survival in patients with NSCLC than chest CT does.
