Chemoimmunotherapy of metastatic large bowel cancer: nonspecific stimulation with BCG and levamisole.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Natural killer (NK) cells are a group of effector cells that act nonspecifically against tumor cells. The correlation between intratumoral NK cell infiltration and clinicopathologic features remains unclear. METHODS:The authors selected 146 patients with gastric carcinoma who underwent gastrectomy at Kagosh...

abstract：BACKGROUND:: Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a common complication in patients with hematologic malignancies. Patients with solid tumors also are at risk for IA because they may develop neutropenia as a result of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, studies of IA in patients with solid tumors are rare. In this study,...
