Approaches to characterize the nucleic acid-binding properties of drugs and druglike small molecules are crucial to understanding the behavior of these compounds in cellular systems. Here, we use a Small Molecule Microarray (SMM) profiling approach to identify the preferential interaction between
Of 50 patients who had scrape cytology of the excision cavity after conservative surgery for breast carcinoma, 10 (20%) had malignant cells remaining in the cavity recognised by cytology. Of these patients, 18 had histological evidence of tumour at the resection margin, giving an accuracy of the

BACKGROUND
The common treatment for cancer is unfavorable because it causes many detrimental side effects, and lately, there has been a growing resistance toward anticancer drugs, which worsens the future of cancer treatment. Therefore, the focus has now shifted toward natural products, such as
Breast surgery is considered a clean surgery. However, surgical-site infection (SSI) rates are currently higher than predicted. Postoperative drains remain in situ for several days, with inevitable bacterial colonization and increased SSI risk.This The terms deodorants and antiperspirants very frequently used interchangeably despite the fact that they employ completely different active substances and mechanisms of action. Antiperspirants are necessarily deodorants due to the lack of substrate to decompose. They nevertheless represent a group
Surgical site infection (SSI) rates vary from 1% to 5% in the month following surgery. Due to the large number of surgical procedures conducted annually, the costs of these SSIs can be considerable in financial and social terms. Many interventions are used with the aim of reducing the risk of SSI in
A 78-year-old patient with an ulcerous, purulent, exophytic fist-sized breast carcinoma (FIGO IVd) and a pulmonary metastasis who refused radiation, chemotherapy and operation, was treated with oral tamoxifen and metronidazole daily and with local antiseptics. After two months she was pain-free
The persistence of residual tumour is associated with the histology and stage of the primary cancer, the completeness and quality of surgery, and postoperative events such as anastomotic leakage or entrapment of cells in exudating wound surfaces. At present, there is no clinical evidence that the
Iodine is crucial for thyroid hormone production. However, recent epidemiologic studies have shown that breast cancer patients have an elevated risk of developing thyroid cancer and vice versa. A notable finding in this study is that iodine stimulated the transcriptional activity of estrogen
