Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) is a solid cancer with a very poor prognosis with overall survival, all stages combined, not exceeding 5% at 5 years. The incidence and number of deaths caused by this type of tumor have been steadily increasing for two decades. In the absence of therapeutic advances,
Background Dysbiosis and known bacterial drivers play a significant role in the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer. Among bacterial drivers, Fusobacterium nucleatum (FN) and the formation of biofilm on the surface of the colonic epithelium are considered pro-carcinogenic. The increased permeability
The outcome of oncological patients is related not only to the tumor status but also to the host. Particularly the patient's immune and nutritional status have been recently associated with short- and long-term outcome in gastric and other cancers. In addition, there is growing evidence that
The prognosis and survival rate of breast cancer varies depending on the extent of the disease, performance status of patients and the type of tumour including the status of oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Expression of ER and
