Continued inadequacies in data sources for the evaluation of cancer services.

Abstract:

:There is a need to evaluate cancer services and provide a baseline on current treatment success and organization. This study shows that this process may be severely hindered by case note destruction or inaccessibility and incomplete information. This is an ongoing problem that needs to be addressed now.

  • Frequent loss of the AXIN1 locus but absence of AXIN1 gene mutations in adenocarcinomas of the gastro-oesophageal junction with nuclear beta-catenin expression.

    abstract::Up to 60% of gastro-oesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinomas show nuclear beta-catenin expression, pointing to activated T-cell factor (TCF)/beta-catenin-driven gene transcription. We demonstrate in five human GEJ adenocarcinoma cell lines that nuclear beta-catenin expression indeed correlates with enhanced TCF-medi...
