Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter 2-Mediated Glucose Uptake Contributes to Glycogen Accumulation in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: Implications for Clear Cell Morphology and Potential Therapeutic Relevance

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is characterized by loss of the functional von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) complex and distinctive clear cell morphology associated with intracellular glycogen and lipid accumulation. However, the mechanism underlying glycogen storage remains uncle...

All‐Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Muscle Advancement With Pan Scapular Release and Using the Scapular Triangular View

Abstract An all‐arthroscopic rotator cuff muscle advancement technique is presented for posterosuperior massive tears. This procedure involves subperiosteal release of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus from the scapula while preserving continuity with the levator scapulae and t...

Relationship between initial dose, dose intensity, and survival in unresectable pancreatic cancer treated with nanoliposomal irinotecan, fluorouracil, and folinic acid

Abstract While nanoliposomal irinotecan with fluorouracil and folinic acid (NFF) is a standard second-line regimen for unresectable pancreatic cancer (uPC) after gemcitabine-based therapy, the effects of initial dosing and relative dose intensity (RDI) in routine practice are unc...
