The effect of exposure to radiofrequency fields on cancer risk in the general and working population: A protocol for a systematic review of human obs…

2021

Highlights • RF-EMF was classified by IARC as possibly carcinogenic to humans (2B) in May 2011 • A systematic review of all subject-relevant epidemiological studies is now needed. • A detailed protocol ensures the review's transparency, utility and credibility. • Original study validity will be evaluated with a customized OHAT risk of bias tool. • Internal coherence and external plausibility will inform conclusions.

Accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of fine needle aspiration biopsy in salivary gland tumours: A retrospective study

2010

Objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) of salivary gland tumours performed at the Erasto Gaertner Hospital over the course of a four year period. Study design: A retrospective study was carried out between 2001-2005 to review the cases of patients with salivary gland tumours who had undergone pre-operative FNAB and had been diagnosed during post-operative histopathology examination. Results: A total of 106 cases of salivary gland tumours were considered for this study, but 27 cases (25.5%) of the samples were considered unsatisfactory for analysis. the sensitivity, specificity and accura…

The adenoid cystic carcinoma

1988

Summary In spite of its rare incidence the adenoid cystic carcinoma must be treated with respect because of its hidden malignant character. In 5 out of 21 patients recurrences occurred much longer than5 years after he first operation. The extension of this tumour along branches of the trigeminal nerve could be well demonstrated in 7 of our patients where we were able to produce histological proof or radiographic evidence. The theory of tumour growth along the “tissue of least resistance” is illustrated by a special case report. As for the therapy, ultra-radical surgery has proved to be the most effective so far, whereas radio- or chemotherapy were only useful as palliative measures.
