Effective Prognostic Marker Identified for Ovarian Cancer
High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma is the most prevalent of epithelial ovarian cancers and remains poorly understood due to a lack of biomarkers identified for clinical use, for diagnosis, or for prognosis of patient survival rates. More...20 Aug 2014
Composition of the Gut Microbiome Differentiates Normal Individuals from Those with Precancerous Polyps or Invasive Colorectal Cancer
A recent paper described how analysis of the gut microbiome could be used to differentiate healthy individuals from those with precancerous adenomatous polyps and those with invasive colorectal cancer. More...18 Aug 2014
