  • A Meta-Analysis of Obesity and Risk of Colorectal Cancer in Patients with Lynch Syndrome: The Impact of Sex and Genetics June 2, 2021
    There appears to be a sex-specific association between obesity and colorectal neoplasia in patients with Lynch Syndrome (LS). We meta-analyzed studies reporting on obesity and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in LS patients to test whether obese subjects were at increased risk of cancer compared to those of normal weight. We explored also a possible sex-specific […]

  • Endometrial Cancer: Obesity, Genetics, and Targeted Agents January 27, 2019
    It is imperative to understand the underlying mechanisms of both endometrial carcinogenesis and recurrence in order to develop more effective prevention and treatment. This article reviews available molecular data, the interplay between endometrial cancer carcinogenesis with obesity and genetics, as well as current targeted therapies.
