Bone Mineral Density In Hiv: A Comparison Of Hiv Positive Versus Negative Patient With Lower Limb Long Bone Fractures by Botha, Peter

“…Overall, the BMD and T-scores were similar in both the HIV-positive and HIV-negative participants with a median BMD of 0.49 g/cm2 (0.23 – 0.71) within the HIV positive group; 0.49 (0.3-0.71) within the HIV negative group and an overall T-score of -0.8, with no statistical significance found between the two groups (p>0.050). …”

Development of potential immunodiagnostic & therapeutic techniques using SNAP-fusion proteins as tools for the validation of Triple-negative Breast Cancer by Magugu, Freddy-Junior Siybaulela

“…Conventional diagnostic methods for TNBCs include mammography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound while therapeutic methods include mastectomy and breast conserving surgery (coupled with radiation therapy). The lack of effective therapeutic options, poor prognostic value and high rates of metastasis, has made treatment of TNBC difficult. …”

Next-Generation version of pseudomonas exotoxin a based immunotoxins with reduced immunogenicity for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) treatment by Mthethwa, Jabulisile

“…Breast cancer continues to have the highest mortality rate in comparison to other cancer types, with approximately 19.4 million women aged 15 years and older living at risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer in South Africa. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype, which is mainly characterized by a lack of expression of the oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), patients do not benefit from current standard treatments since they are based on these absent biomarkers leading to off-targets which results to an adverse side effects in TNBC patients. …”

Development of SNAP-tag based fusion proteins as novel auristatin F-containing immunoconjugates and photoimmunotheranostics in the detection and treatment of triple-negative breast... by Mungra, Neelakshi

“…With the absence of well-defined molecular targets in TNBC, there is a heightened reliance on tri-modality therapy (surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy), albeit with an increasing incidence of adverse effects and disease relapse. To this end, there is an urgent need to develop an arsenal of targeted diagnostics and therapeutics, which can be synergized to cover the vast majority of triple-negative breast tumors, paving the way towards the development of personalized regimens suitable for the particular needs and disease of each patient. …”
