A nomogram that combines breast MRI-derived intra-tumoral heterogeneity (ITH) quantification with clinicopathologic factors may offer significant prognostic benefit in assessing neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in patients with breast cancer. In a new multicenter retrospective study, recently published in Radiology, researchers trained and evaluated the capability of the nomogram to predict pathologic complete response (pCR) in a … Read more
Microbiome dysbiosis—changes in the composition of gut microbes that alter the metabolites present—has long been implicated in playing a causative role in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the changes in the gut microbial metabolites that are associated with ASD-specific brain alterations have remained unknown. Now, a new study suggests that gut microbiome … Read more
New research published in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging has uncovered changes in brain connectivity during chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. In the study of 55 patients with breast cancer and 38 controls without cancer, investigators conducted functional magnetic resonance imaging scans of participants’ brains over several months. Scans from patients revealed changes … Read more
