The development of retinoblastoma is thought to require pathological genetic changes in both alleles the RB1 gene. However, cases exist where mutations are undetectable, suggesting alternative pathways malignancy. We used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and transcriptomics investigate landscape sporadic retinoblastomas derived from twenty patients, sought other driver investigated mutational signatures. At least one mutation was identified all retinoblastomas, including new addition those...
Medical leadership and management (MLM) skills are essential in preventing failings of healthcare; it is unknown how these attitudes can be developed during undergraduate medical education. This paper aims to quantify interest MLM recommends preferred methods teaching assessment at UK schools. Two questionnaires were developed, one sent all school faculties, assess executed planned curriculum changes, the other students nationally their preferences for assessment. Forty-eight percent schools...
Purpose Although medical leadership and management (MLM) is increasingly being recognised as important to improving healthcare outcomes, little understood about current training of students in MLM skills behaviours the UK. The paper aims discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach This qualitative study used validated structured interviews with expert faculty members from schools across UK ascertain framework integration, teaching methods employed, evaluation barriers improvement....
34% (95% confidence interval, 5%-59%) of variation in the reported color dress when adjusted for age, whereas environmental factors contributed 66% CI, 41%-95%).This study suggests play a significant role how an individual perceives ''the dress.''
Purpose Effective clinical leadership is crucial to avoid failings in the delivery of safe health care, particularly during a period increasing scrutiny and cost-constraints for National Health Service (NHS). However, there paucity training health-care students, future leaders NHS, which due part overfilled curricula. The purpose this study was assess impact student-led benefit fellow students. Design/methodology/approach To address gap, group multiprofessional students organised series...
Ocular medulloepithelioma (diktyoma) is a rare and potentially malignant paediatric tumour of the non-pigmented ciliary epithelium. Adjuvant chemotherapy can be given in advanced cases, but indications regimens remain to defined. The aim was identify whether adjuvant offers treatment benefit ocular medulloepithelioma.This retrospective case series subjects referred single specialist oncology centre for subsequently treated with enucleation, including those needing systemic vincristine,...
Cardiovascular complications are one of the frequent ®ndings encountered in hyperthyroid states. By exerting direct anabolic effects on heart, elevated thyroid hormones caused increased left ventricular mass and contractibility. Hence, being clinically euthyroid but biochemically thyrotoxic, patients with subclinical thyrotoxicosis have a higher risk developing atrial ®brillation or cardiomyopathy. Detection proper management this condition is therefore important. We report study carried out...

2534 Background: The elderly, ethnic minorities and the socioeconomically deprived are underrepresented in oncology clinical trials, including early phase studies. Comorbid burden may contribute to this, but impact of additional diagnoses on participation outcome cancer trials has not been previously analysed. Methods: We evaluated data collected over an 8 year period from clinic at a UK centre. was using Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). Data age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status ECOG...
Purpose The economic burden and health consequences of falls are underestimated. Forty per cent over 65 year olds will fall at least once each year, with half these having multiple episodes. Visual impairment is common in the elderly associated a higher risk. NICE recommends visual testing as part ‘multifactorial risk assessment’. However, during recent audit on three care wards central London teaching hospital, only 11% patients who presented had assessment their admission. Methods A series...
