TL;DR: This work aimed to quantify suicide mortality in India in 2010 by applying the age-specific and sex-specific proportion of suicide deaths in this survey to the 2010 UN estimates of absolute numbers of deaths in India.

TL;DR: Elective node dissection was superior in most subgroups without significant interactions and among patients with early-stage oral squamous-cell cancer, elective neck dissection resulted in higher rates of overall and disease-free survival than did therapeutic neck dissections.

TL;DR: Oral neratinib showed substantial clinical activity and was reasonably well tolerated among both heavily pretreated and trastuzumab-naïve patients who had advanced, ErbB2-positive breast cancer.

TL;DR: The overall state of health and cancer control in each country is described and additional specific issues for consideration are described: for China, access to care, contamination of the environment, and cancer fatalism and traditional medicine; for India, affordability of care, provision of adequate health personnel, and sociocultural barriers to cancer control.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the effect of locoregional treatment with no treatment on outcome in women with metastatic breast cancer at initial presentation, and found that there is no evidence to suggest that the treatment of the primary tumor affects overall survival in patients who have responded to front-line chemotherapy.
