Journal ArticleDOI
Triple-negative breast cancer has worse overall survival and cause-specific survival than non-triple-negative breast cancer.
Xiaoxian Li,Jing Yang,Limin Peng,Aysegul A. Sahin,Lei Huo,Kevin C. Ward,Ruth O'Regan,Mylin A. Torres,Jane L. Meisel +8 more
TL;DR: Patients with TNBC have worse survival than patients with non-TNBC, and the new AJCC staging manual should consider breast cancer biomarker information.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Dose Therapy and Autologous Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantation for Recurrent or Refractory Pediatric Hodgkin's Disease: Results and Prognostic Indices
Y. Lieskovsky,Sarah S. Donaldson,Mylin A. Torres,Ruby M. Wong,Michael D. Amylon,Michael P. Link,Rajni Agarwal +6 more
TL;DR: More than half of children with relapsed or refractory HD can be successfully treated with the combination of high-dose therapy and AHSCT, confirming the efficacy of this approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of depression in breast cancer patients treated with radiation: role of prior chemotherapy and nuclear factor kappa B.
Mylin A. Torres,Thaddeus W.W. Pace,Tian Liu,Jennifer C. Felger,Donna Mister,Gregory H. Doho,Jordan N. Kohn,Andrea M. Barsevick,Qi Long,Andrew H. Miller +9 more
TL;DR: Radiation is an essential component of breast‐conserving therapy and may contribute to depression in patients with breast cancer through the activation of inflammatory pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of different cell type correction methods for genome-scale epigenetics studies
Akhilesh Kaushal,Hongmei Zhang,Wilfried Karmaus,Meredith Ray,Mylin A. Torres,Alicia K. Smith,Shu-Li Wang +6 more
TL;DR: Results from real data and simulations indicated that SVA is recommended when the focus is on the identification of informative CpGs, and when appropriate reference data are available, the method implemented in the minfi package is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetic changes associated with inflammation in breast cancer patients treated with chemotherapy
Alicia K. Smith,Karen N. Conneely,Thaddeus W.W. Pace,Donna Mister,Jennifer C. Felger,Varun Kilaru,Mary J. Akel,Paula M. Vertino,Andrew H. Miller,Mylin A. Torres +9 more
TL;DR: Prior chemotherapy treatment was associated with decreased methylation of CpG sites in DNA from PBMCs of breast cancer patients, which correlated with increased inflammatory markers prior to and 6months after radiation therapy.
